Friend,

Trump’s takeover of the courts wasn’t a short-term power grab – it was a long game. And this fall, we’ve seen just how far his judges and justices are willing to go.

In just the last two months, Trump-appointed judges have issued more than a dozen new rulings that undermine civil rights, environmental protections, and the very agencies meant to serve the American people.

Our new Confirmed Judges, Confirmed Fears report highlights 14 alarming cases from September through October – decisions that show exactly why Trump’s judicial legacy remains one of the most dangerous aspects of his presidency. Read the full report >>

Among the rulings:

  • The Supreme Court’s Trump-aligned justices voted to uphold Trump’s authority to fire officials protected by law – a move that guts oversight and accountability.
  • A Trump district judge voted to let the administration terminate billions in climate change grants and halt foreign aid that Congress had already approved.
  • Two rulings granted broad immunity to prison officials accused of serious abuse, denying justice to the people they harmed.
  • Another Trump judge wrote a split decision letting coal companies off the hook for black lung disease.

Each of these decisions chips away at our rights, and each one underscores the importance of fighting against the confirmation of even more judges nominated by Trump.

People For’s Confirmed Judges, Confirmed Fears project exposes this ongoing harm. We track the rulings, document patterns, and make this information available to journalists, activists, and lawmakers. Explore the database >>

But this work takes resources. Every report, every data update, every deep-dive analysis depends on supporters like you.

Trump’s judges are continuing to erode our democracy case by case – and unless we fight back, their rulings will define our rights, our freedoms, and our futures.
