The Daily Schtick: Lawsuit Losers & Legal L’s – February 12, 2026 Edition

The Trump White House now runs on three pillars: vibes, vengeance, and getting absolutely bodied in court.

Courtroom Scoreboard: State 7, Trump 0 (and counting)

The administration is bleeding cases like a bad sportsbook addict. Judges keep smacking down executive orders, rushed rules, and half‑baked memos for the same reasons every time: no evidence, no process, and no respect for the law beyond “because Trump said so.”

Immigration crackdowns, Schedule F‑style civil service purges, voting roll power‑grabs, protest restrictions, and censorship‑adjacent social media tantrums are piling up as losses, injunctions, and “return to the status quo ante” rulings. The government files appeals, fundraises off the outrage, and then quietly rewrites the same policy in smaller, sneakier font.

Governing by Lawsuit, Losing by Design

At this point, half the administration’s “agenda” is just press‑conference theater that collapses on first contact with a halfway awake judge. Agencies skip public comment, ignore their own experts, and then act shocked when courts ask basic questions like “Do you have proof?” and “Did you read your own statute?”

The pattern is clear:

• Announce some authoritarian cosplay on TV.
• Get sued within 24 hours.
• Lose in district court.
• Scream “deep state” on social media.

It’s less governance, more content farm—except the courts still run on paperwork, not rage clicks.

Schedule F, Meet Article III

The civil‑service purge project keeps racking up legal bruises too. Career employees and unions are dragging those loyalty tests into court, arguing that you can’t just turn neutral expertise into campaign staff because your feelings are hurt by “insubordination.”

Judges aren’t exactly thrilled by attempts to turn entire agencies into patronage machines. When your idea of “draining the swamp” is firing everyone who knows how the machinery works, the judiciary tends to notice the smell.

ICE, Cameras, and the First Amendment Faceplant

Even the “arrest people for following our SUVs” stunt is already a lawsuit farm in waiting. Civil rights groups are lining up plaintiffs, and the legal argument is brutally simple: you don’t get to treat public observation of public officials on public roads as a crime just because you’re embarrassed.

When those cases fully hit the courts, expect more rulings that read like passive‑aggressive subtweets from the bench about “constitutional protections the government appears to have forgotten.”

Today’s Schtick

So February 12, 2026: an administration that loves calling everything a “big win” keeps catching L after L in court; immigration, labor, civil service, and speech crackdowns all boomerang back with judicial bite marks; and the only real “strategy” left is to lose loudly and blame the refs.
