A model of political succession in the Trump family: MAGA ensures stability of new institutional approaches in the US by shaping a "family logic" within the President's inner circle

On March 18, 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump called for the impeachment of federal judge James E. Boasberg after the judge issued a temporary injunction against the Trump administration's use of the Alien Enemies Act to detain and deport undocumented immigrants.

On the same day, federal judge Ana Reyes blocked the implementation of Trump's executive order banning transgender people from serving in the US Army, considering it discriminatory and violating the constitutional rights of military personnel.

The escalation of the confrontation between the Donald Trump administration and the federal judiciary is part of a large-scale process of restructuring American state and political institutions by the new administration.

The profound political and ideological transformation initiated by the new presidential team will have a wider timeframe than the current political cycle.
