In her order, Williams said that there was no case or controversy for the court to decide. Since it was filed by Mr. Trump against a federal agency and officials that he, as president, had control over, there would be no adverse litigant, she found. Williams determined that Mr. Trump "improperly employed this lawsuit to justify a particular award in this matter — access to taxpayer funds and exemption from audits and other investigations — which was accomplished by leveraging control over Defendants."

"President Trump did not pursue his claims until he once again occupied the White House and had appointed his former lawyer, and the former lawyer of persons who are putative beneficiaries of the 'Anti-Weaponization Fund' to prominent positions in the DOJ," she wrote in her order. "These officials then negotiated on behalf of the United States, with his current lawyers, including his former White House Counsel to reach a 'settlement.' It is risible to suggest that there was ever adverseness between the Parties."

      • Exactly. The lawsuit was lame window dressing for Trump to enrich himself at taxpayers' expense. - conorlarkin - 7:19pm 7/13/26
        • Are you suggesting Charles Littlejohn was above the law? - Hensou - 7:31pm 7/13/26
          • Well that settles it…you have “Sold Your Soul” to Donald J. Trump…;-) [NT] - TyroneIrish - 8:11pm 7/13/26
            • Nonsense. Littlejohn admitted his Dem-fueled guilt. - Hensou - 9:01pm 7/13/26
