Michael Popok: 我认为，特朗普政府试图通过NIH削减对弱势群体的资助，这是我职业生涯中见过的最明目张胆的种族主义行为。法官杨的裁决明确指出，特朗普政府的这一行为不仅是任意和反复无常的，而且是对黑人、棕色人种和LGBTQ+群体的一种歧视。我认为，特朗普政府以“多元化、公平和包容性”为幌子，实则推行种族主义，这可能导致黑人和棕色人种死亡。我感到非常震惊，这种行为不仅违背了美国的立国原则，而且直接威胁到弱势群体的生命健康。我认为，联邦法官应该无所畏惧地进行调查，而不必担心特朗普政府的偏见或敌意，这样才能真正捍卫民主和正义。我同时认为，我们应该坦诚地讨论，为什么我们要消除多元化、公平和包容性，这些概念与美国的立国原则和爱国主义精神相符，我们应该对那些不如我们成功的人抱有同情心，而不是为了证明在多元化、公平和包容问题上的立场，而杀死美国同胞。我认为，这是一项阴谋，旨在消灭民主党人，摧毁蓝色州，而蓝色州在经济、多元化、智慧、人文、艺术和科技方面为美国做出了巨大贡献，却只希望在自由中不被打扰。我为法官杨感到自豪，他以美国法官的身份签署命令，这表明他真正站在了正义的一边。 Michael Popok: 我还想强调的是，法官杨是一位特立独行的人，他认为解决问题最公平的方式是通过审判，而不是和解或简易判决。我认为，这种坚持正义的决心值得我们敬佩。同时，我也注意到，许多做出公正判决的法官都是80多岁的高级法官，他们有长远的眼光、背景和历史，能够更好地理解问题的本质。法官卡尔法多是第一个发布关于出生公民权的临时限制令的法官，他认为这是他40年来见过的最明目张胆的违宪行政命令。当我听到像布雷耶、卡尔法多和杨这样的法官的声音时，我感到非常振奋，因为他们代表着正义和良知。我认为，以前的共和党和民主党之间的共同点很多，但现在由于总统的极端行为，这种共同点消失了，这是一种悲哀。我希望未来能够看到更多的法官能够像法官杨一样，不畏强权，捍卫正义。

Shownotes Transcript

The Senior Status Federal Judges are striking back and hard against the Trump Administration, issuing some of the most scathing rebukes from the bench and in opinions from their perch as judicial historians as well. Add to this growing list, Judge Young of the Federal Court in Massachusetts, who of the 400+ cases pending against the Trump Administration, just tried the FIRST trial related to Trump’s cut of millions of dollars in grant money issued by the National Institute of Health to the Black, Brown and LGBTQ+ communities, and declared that the decision to cut funding is the most “blatant” and “palpably” racist act by a Government he has ever seen in 40 years. Michael Popok reports on the trial and Judge Young’s ruling and the role of the Senior Status Federal Judges to protect our democracy.
