The Fourth Of July: 8 Times The Trump Regime Lost—and Lost Big

A bad time to be a wannabe king

I know what this Fourth of July feels like. Fireworks over a country where the regime is trying to decide who counts as American, and whose family gets hunted.

They trample on everything we hold dear, and I won’t pretend otherwise.

But here’s what I believe with everything I’ve got: this country has never belonged to a tyrannical wannabe king. It belongs to the ones who refuse to hand it over to them. And this week, all across America, that tradition continued—in courtrooms, statehouses, and packed public halls, people who were told to give up pushed back harder instead. And they won.

And if you haven’t yet, join us as a paid subscriber today. The Dworkin Report isn’t just a newsletter—it’s a war room. We dig up the wins the networks skip and turn readers into the pressure that flips Congress. I’ve spent this entire fight betting that the truth, in enough hands, still beats a bully every time.

Become a paid subscriber and let’s win that bet together:

1. THE COURT SAID IT: CITIZENS AT BIRTH

On Tuesday, the Supreme Court struck down the regime’s order to end birthright citizenship. The 6-3 ruling was plain: every baby born on US soil is an American, and Chief Justice John Roberts wrote that under the Constitution, “they are citizens at birth.” Trump put three justices on that Court—two of them looked at his order and told him no.

2. THE ABUSE VERDICT STANDS—FOR GOOD

That same day, the Supreme Court refused to hear Trump’s appeal of the $5 million verdict for sexually abusing writer E. Jean Carroll. It stands now, for good. He fought it for years—through a jury and an appeals court—and lost at every level. Three of the nine justices are his own picks, and not one wrote a single word in his defense.

3. MORE THAN TEN COURTS KILLED THE VOTER GRAB

The regime demanded the private voter records of entire states—names, birthdates, even partial Social Security numbers. A federal appeals court threw out its case against Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, and Pennsylvania’s Chief Judge Cathy Bissoon tossed another, ruling the regime had no right to the data it was after. In more than ten courtrooms now, the voter grab is winless.

4. A COURT SAVED THE MAIL-IN BALLOT

The regime moved to have the Postal Service refuse to deliver ballots in states that wouldn’t hand over their voter rolls. Federal Judge Emmet Sullivan blocked it, ruling the plan violated the Postal Service’s own legal requirement to deliver election mail on time. Your mail-in ballot is safe.

5. MIKE JOHNSON FAILS AGAIN

Speaker Mike Johnson tried to sneak Trump’s voter-suppression bill through by bolting it onto the must-pass defense bill. It blew up on the floor—killed by his own hardliners, who wanted the anti-voting law forced through in a way the Senate couldn’t undo. Johnson gave up and sent the House home early, empty-handed on Trump’s top demand.

6. ILLINOIS PUT A SHIELD OVER TRANS LIVES

While the regime attacks transgender Americans for data and headlines, Illinois did the opposite. On Sunday, Gov. JB Pritzker signed three laws that shield trans residents from surveillance, guarantee their care is covered, and protect their IDs. The regime builds lists to target people; Illinois built a wall to protect them.

7. SHE PAID THE FARMERS TRUMP LEFT BLEEDING

Trump’s tariffs battered New York’s farmers all last year, and the regime had no real answer for it. Gov. Kathy Hochul didn’t wait: she opened a $30 million state relief fund while Trump was still begging Congress for money it hadn’t budgeted for. Trump made the mess. Hochul cleaned it up.

8. THE RENT GETS FROZEN

Zohran Mamdani ran for mayor promising to freeze the rent on a million apartments, and won. Six months into his term, the board made up of his own appointees voted 7 to 1 to make good on it—the first two-year freeze in city history. Real estate moguls spent years saying it couldn’t be done, and this new mayor proved them wrong in a matter of months.

Nobody in these eight wins waited to be saved. They saw what the regime was doing and refused to go along—and that refusal is the whole story of this country. It’s alive right now, and it’s spreading.

The regime is betting you can’t keep it up. That you’ll read a list like this, feel good for an afternoon, and go quiet by Monday. We exist to make them lose that bet.

We don’t just report these wins—we build on them. We turn readers into an army millions strong: letters and calls Congress can’t ignore, truth the regime can’t bury, all aimed at the midterms. That’s what your subscription buys: not a newsletter, but a hand in turning Trump into a lame duck.

So this Fourth of July, don’t just feel it—fund it. Become a paid subscriber and fuel the fight:
