Trump fires Pam Bondi and installs his former defense attorney as acting AG
On April 2, 2026, President Trump announced via Truth Social that he was removing Pam Bondi as U.S. Attorney General. Trump said Bondi would "transition to a much needed and important new job in the private sector." Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche — Trump's former personal defense attorney in the Manhattan DA and Jack Smith cases, confirmed as DAG in March 2025 — was named acting attorney general. Sources told CNN and CBS that Trump was frustrated with Bondi over her handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files and her failure to pursue prosecutions of his perceived political enemies. Lee Zeldin, the EPA administrator, emerged as the likely permanent replacement. The firing made Bondi the second Cabinet secretary removed in recent weeks, following Kristi Noem's exit from DHS.

Texas Children's pays $10M and agrees to create the nation's first detransition clinic
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and the U.S. Department of Justice announced a settlement with Texas Children's Hospital on May 15, 2026, requiring the nation's largest children's hospital to pay $10 million to Texas's Medicaid program, terminate five physicians who provided gender-affirming care, and establish the country's first detransition clinic — a multidisciplinary center to assist patients seeking to reverse prior gender-affirming treatments. The settlement resolved allegations that the hospital violated the False Claims Act by submitting fraudulent Medicaid billings for gender-affirming procedures, and required Texas Children's to amend its bylaws to automatically strip privileges from any physician who violates Texas's gender care ban.

Trump Administration appeals Section 122 tariff ruling to Federal Circuit
One day after the Court of International Trade struck down the Section 122 tariffs, the Trump administration filed an appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit and was expected to seek a stay of the lower court injunction pending appeal. The Federal Circuit is the exclusive appellate venue for decisions of the Court of International Trade on trade and customs matters. For the vast majority of importers not covered by the CIT injunction, the 10% tariff continued at the border and remained scheduled to expire July 24, 2026 by its own statutory terms.

Trump signs 2026 National Counterterrorism Strategy targeting left-wing extremist groups
The Trump administration released the 16-page United States Counterterrorism Strategy 2026, identifying three principal threat categories: narcoterrorists and transnational gangs, legacy Islamist terrorists, and violent left-wing extremists including anarchists and anti-fascists. The strategy commits to mapping membership of left-wing organizations and identifying international ties, reversing the Biden administration emphasis on right-wing domestic extremism. CSIS data showed right-wing extremists committed 152 attacks killing 112 people over the prior decade, compared to 35 attacks and 13 deaths attributed to left-wing extremists. Legal analysts at Lawfare noted the membership-mapping commitment would require specific statutory authority for each surveillance action.

DOJ sues 30 states for voter Social Security data as courts block demands
The Trump Justice Department filed lawsuits against 30 states on approximately May 6, 2026, after they refused to provide complete voter registration files including Social Security numbers and driver's license numbers demanded by DOJ since May 2025. Federal courts in California, Oregon, Michigan, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Arizona issued injunctions blocking compliance, finding DOJ had no legal entitlement to the data. Fifteen states had already complied with the demands; a DOJ privacy officer resigned rather than participate.
