President Donald Trump has taken steps to quickly implement his agenda, having signed 93 executive orders since being inaugurated in January.

While Trump faces vocal opposition from Democrats, a bigger obstacle has come in the form of judges attempting to block his actions. 

Trump has faced more national injunctions than any of his three predecessors

According to the New York Post, the president has been subjected to a total of 15 nationwide court injunctions, which is more than any of his three predecessors were confronted with.

The paper cited data compiled by the Harvard Law Review which found that President Joe Biden was hit with 14 such injunctions while President Barack Obama had to contend with 12.

In contrast, federal judges saddled President Georgia W. Bush with a mere six national injunctions during the entirety of his eight years in the White House.

However, all of those figures pale in comparison with the record of 64 injunctions which Trump himself previously wracked up during his first four years as president.

Trump administration told to rehire thousands of federal workers

One recent example came when Clinton-appointed U.S. District Judge William Alsup ordered that thousands of laid off probationary government workers must be rehired.

The Hill noted that Alsup's order applied to individuals who had been previously hired by the departments of Veterans Affairs, Agriculture, Defense, Energy, Interior, and Treasury.

The probationary employees had been laid off as part of a larger cost saving effort which is being implemented by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

Judge failed to prevent deportation of alleged Tren de Aragua gang members

Meanwhile, Politico reported earlier this month that U.S. District Judge James Boasberg forbade suspected members of the brutal Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang from being deported. 

"Any plane containing these folks that is going to take off or is in the air needs to be returned to the United States however that is accomplished," Boasberg was quoted as saying during a video hearing.

Yet although Boasberg insisted that his instructions were to be "complied with immediately," Politico pointed to flight tracking data showing that the aircraft in question were already nearing their destination. 

Many of the purported gang members were eventually dropped off in El Salvador, whose president has made an agreement with the Trump administration to incarcerate them for a fee.
