Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus. I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk's running the White House folks. I want to thank Charlie. He's an incredible guy. His spirit, his love of this country. He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.

We have a serious problem, everybody. There is a major issue happening that could significantly slow down President Trump's mandate. I don't like using the C word unnecessarily, but we are living in a crisis. We are now living in a crisis that is a constitutional crisis. It is a crisis of the nationwide injunction. America has almost 700 district court judges. They are the lowest level of the federal judiciary. So you got 700 people in black robes.

Every one of them sits in one of 994 judicial districts covering a single state or even a small part of a state. Normally, the jurisdiction of these judges is supposed to cover the area of their district. But a nationwide injunction is when one of these judges issues an order and commands that it be implemented all across the country. Now, these used to be exceedingly rare. These always used to be used maybe a couple times for an entire presidency. For example, when George W. Bush was president for eight years, he was only hit with nationwide injunctions six times. Obama, president for eight years, was hit with 12 nationwide injunctions. The first Trump administration, 64 times. Now, that's more than half of all the injunctions since the 1960s.

Now, allow me to explain this to a fourth grader because we got some very young listeners on this program. A nationwide injunction is like a rule. Imagine if one kid in a class told the teacher that a new rule was unfair and the teacher decided to stop using that rule for everyone in the whole school indefinitely, not just for that one kid. That is the best way that I could explain a nationwide injunction. It stops the function, the action and the order and the power of the president of the United States. President Trump has had more nationwide injunctions in the past two months than Joe Biden had in his entire term. Let me say that again. President Trump has had more nationwide injunctions in the past two months than Joe Biden had in his entire presidency. 60 days, not even four years. These nationwide injunctions have been to prevent, for example, the defunding of USAID. Perfectly constitutional for President Trump to do that. You must spend the money. You must give condoms to people of Gaza. You must fund Sesame Street in Iraq.

These judges have moved to prevent the deportation of gang members from Venezuela. Just last night, a judge said the military can't block transgender people from joining the military. So President Trump is no longer in charge of the armed forces. President Trump is no longer in charge of movements of who is in the military. What they are doing is they are slowly enveloping and eating and marching within the federal government and on the presidency. Many of these orders are flagrantly illegal. For example, it is well established that the military can decide who it enlists because that rests in a single person, the commander in chief.
