Shocking 5-4 Ruling From Supreme Court - Barack Obama's Signature Policy GUTTED
Shocking 5-4 Ruling From Supreme Court - Barack Obama's Signature Policy GUTTED
WASHINGTON, D.C. — April 21, 2026
Yes — and the leaked internal Supreme Court memos from 2016 prove it beyond any reasonable doubt.
Barack Obama’s radical Clean Power Plan was never about “clean energy.” It was a deliberate, calculated assault on American energy independence, designed to bankrupt coal-fired power plants, spike electricity prices for working families, and fundamentally reorder the U.S. economy under the guise of climate alarmism. The radical left knew exactly what they were doing: weaponizing the EPA to bypass Congress and impose an America Last agenda that would cripple manufacturing, destroy jobs in red states, and make the United States dependent on foreign energy and unreliable green fantasies.
Thankfully, even Chief Justice John Roberts — a George W. Bush appointee — saw through the scheme. In powerful internal memos, Roberts warned his colleagues that without an immediate stay, the Clean Power Plan would cause “substantial and irreversible reordering of the domestic power sector” before the Court could even review its legality. He was joined by conservative justices who understood the existential threat.
Roberts wrote plainly: “Absent a stay, the Clean Power Plan will cause (and is causing) substantial and irreversible reordering of the domestic power sector before this court has an opportunity to review its legality.”
Justice Samuel Alito reinforced the urgency: “A failure to stay this rule threatens to render our ability to provide meaningful judicial review — and by extension, our institutional legitimacy — a nullity.”
In a rare 5-4 emergency ruling along ideological lines, the Supreme Court blocked Obama’s power grab. The radical left was stunned. Behind closed doors, Obama officials were shocked at how quickly the Court acted to protect the American people from their destructive scheme.
This was not an isolated mistake. It was part of a broader pattern. From the Iran nuclear deal that funded terrorism, to the open-border policies that overwhelmed our cities, to the endless regulations that crushed small businesses — the Obama-Biden radical left consistently put globalist elites, climate fanatics, and foreign interests ahead of American workers. They wanted higher energy prices. They wanted coal country decimated. They wanted America weaker so their internationalist vision could rise.
The New York Times’ convenient leak of these confidential memos — the second major breach after the Dobbs opinion — reeks of the same deep state desperation we’ve seen for years. As legal scholar Jonathan Turley correctly noted, these leaks are “clearly designed to wound some of its members” and make the Court appear “porous and partisan.” The radical left cannot win in the court of public opinion or at the ballot box, so they resort to sabotage and selective leaks.
President Donald Trump saw this danger from day one. That’s why he immediately repealed the Clean Power Plan in his first term, unleashed American energy dominance, and delivered record-low unemployment, cheaper gas, and true energy independence. Under Trump, America became a net energy exporter for the first time in decades — the exact opposite of Obama’s destructive vision.
The 5-4 ruling was one of the earliest and most important uses of the Supreme Court’s emergency “shadow” docket to check executive overreach. It saved countless jobs, protected reliable baseload power, and prevented the radical left from turning off the lights on the American dream.
Today, as President Trump returns to the White House and continues dismantling the remnants of the Obama-Biden regulatory nightmare, we see the contrast clearly. America First means affordable energy, strong manufacturing, and putting our own citizens first. The radical left’s “clean energy” agenda was always code for economic suicide and national decline.
The house of cards of Obama’s legacy is collapsing. Every time the truth leaks out — whether through internal memos or border statistics or inflation numbers — the American people see who was really trying to “fundamentally transform” this country… into a weaker, poorer, less free version of itself.
President Trump is reversing that damage every single day. Secure borders, booming energy production, and judicial pushback against radical executive power are the antidote to the Obama era’s intentional sabotage.
We are winning. American energy is roaring back. And the radical left’s war on prosperity is being exposed and defeated.
MAGA knows the truth: Barack Obama’s policies were not mistakes — they were features of a deliberate America Last agenda. Thank God the Supreme Court stepped in, and thank God President Trump is back to finish the job.
Leaked Video from LA Ballot Counting Facility Sparks Chaos in Mayor's Race
Los Angeles - June 7, 2026
LOS ANGELES COUNTY BALLOT COUNTING LAGS AS HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS REMAIN UNPROCESSED
Understaffed Facility Sparks Concerns; Hilton Urges Emergency Corps, Trump Accuses 'Dumocrats' of Trying to Steal Primaries
The California Post visited the county’s 144,000-square-foot ballot processing facility on Thursday. Reporters saw dozens of vacant workstations while hundreds of thousands of ballots awaited processing across California and Los Angeles. The urgent need to count remaining votes contrasted with the understaffed scene at the warehouse.
Just 77,521 more ballots have been processed since the June 2 election night, county officials announced Wednesday. An estimated 713,180 ballots remain unprocessed.
Much of the facility appeared understaffed. Rows of workstations stood empty with several vacant chair sections. About 25 bins of ballots were ready for manual review in one area, but no employees sat at nearby desks. In the preparation zone, roughly 75 workers handled envelopes and ballots, though the space could hold more than double that number.
Steve Hilton, Republican frontrunner for governor, said Thursday he would urge Governor Gavin Newsom to create an Emergency Election Count Accelerator Corps to assist counties with ballot backlogs.
“California is the laughing stock of the nation when it comes to election reporting. We are the fourth-largest economy in the world, home to Silicon Valley and some of the most advanced technology on earth, yet government bureaucrats need a month to count fewer than 10 million ballots,” Hilton said.
The Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk office faces scrutiny as Los Angeles County spends nearly $336 million yearly on the department with over 1,100 budgeted positions. Dean Logan, who leads the office and manages elections, earns $448,179 annually. The county has more than 5.8 million registered voters.
President Donald Trump criticized the pace on Truth Social.
“The Dumocrats are at it again! They are trying to STEAL THE GOVERNOR OF CALIFORNIA PRIMARY, AND THE MAYOR OF LOS ANGELES, PRIMARY, AWAY FROM TWO GREAT REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES. Here we go with the very late and massive numbers of MAIL IN BALLOTS,” he posted.
Gavin Newsom’s office responded on X, saying there is much misinformation about the election — including from the President — and shared a CNN explainer.
“And yes, for the record: we wish the votes were counted faster, too,” the post concluded.

A staff member at the facility told reporters not to be “fooled by what you see” when asked about empty workstations but gave no further explanation.
Other states that held elections Tuesday are nearly done: New Jersey at about 93%, New Mexico and Montana near 98%. Los Angeles County’s next update is due Thursday evening, but with over 700,000 ballots left, experts say final results could take weeks.
