Federal Judge Orders Trump Admin to Restore Gender Ideology Websites
2025-02-12
Another Deep State judge attempting to hobble the Trump-Musk juggernaut.
[THEGATEWAYPUNDIT] A federal judge on Tuesday ordered the Trump Administration to restore the gender ideology webpages it deleted.
"404 Page Not Found" - Happy?
US District Judge John Bates
…age 78, appointed by President George W, Bush in 2001 then for some years presiding judge of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court …
of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, a George W. Bush appointee, ordered Trump to restore the pages by midnight tonight.

Last month, President Trump scrubbed public health websites of all things related to ''gender ideology.''

A group dubbed Doctors For America
…astroturf founded in 2008 as Doctors for Obama to lend his presidential campaign an air of gravitas. As Doctors for America they campaigned for Obamacare, which showed exactly what they were. We haven’t heard from them since, so it’s interesting that the name was resurrected now…
sued the Office of Personal Management and numerous government agencies, claiming the removal could prevent doctors from helping patients.

Judge Bates agreed with Doctors for America and ordered the bully boy ideology to be restored.

''Defendants shall, in consultation with Plaintiff, identify any other resources that DFA members rely on to provide medical care and that defendants removed or substantially modified on or after January 29, 2025, without adequate notice or reasoned explanation; and defendants shall, by February 14, 2025, restore those resources to their versions as of January 30, 2025,'' Judge John Bates wrote in an order reviewed by The Gateway Pundit.

#11  Theoretically, judges can be removed using Article III Section I and the Good Behavior Clause. Admittedly it has never been attempted. Now might be a good time.

#8  So the administration has to use all the money DOGE saves for lawyers to litigate these issues all the way to SCOTUS.

#7  They're "judgement proof"; only takes a majority in the house to impeach, but they can only be removed by a "trial" and 2/3 vote of the Senate.

#6  Dems are carefully pointing out which judges need impeaching. Will Congress oblige?

#5  Granted, DOGE is focused on the Executive branch, but the Judiciary IS a part of the Government and there are bound to be overlaps between the executive and judiciary. One wonders what a deep dive into those relationships might show.

#4  Simple
If you are a MAN, we respect that, and If you are a FEMALE, we respect that also.

If you think & act like you are some Sex, other than what your DNA shows you are.

Then special padded accommodations at Bellevue be provided to help mentally stabilize your mind.

#3  If you think being a federal judge makes you wise, you're in for a big disappointment. There's a constitutional crisis but its not Trump, but the unelected branch with life terms of government trying to shut down what the elected government branch is doing. They really do want to burn the place down than lose power.
