President Donald Trump’s efforts to reshape the federal government to his liking suffered a loss in court when a federal judge blocked his administration from firing the head of a federal watchdog agency without cause, likely triggering a lengthy appeal that could end at the Supreme Court.
U.S. District Justice Amy Berman Jackson determined the move was unlawful and issued a permanent injunction that reinstated special counsel Hampton Dellinger to his position.
Meanwhile, the Social Security Administration said it will cut 7,000 jobs and six of its 10 regional centers as part of the president’s downsizing of the federal workforce.

Starmer praised the UK's relationship with America and their work to negotiate a peace deal in Ukraine.
The prime minister pushed an old British slogan to "win the peace," and said the UK would be all in.

Trump spoke about Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's upcoming visit to Washington, D.C., to sign a deal that would give U.S. access to Ukraine's mineral wealth.
"We're going to be at the site, and we'll be digging. We’ll be dig, dig, digging. Dig, we must," Trump said.
Trump provided a vague update on the negotiations to end the war in Ukraine and said "we've made a lot of progress."
"It will either be fairly soon or it won't be at all," he said.
The president repeated false claims about the money that was given to Ukraine by the Biden administration and praised the pending mineral deal with Ukraine.
"It's really very good for Ukraine and very good for us. The American taxpayers will now effectively be reimbursed for the money and hundreds of billions of dollars poured into helping Ukraine defend itself, which by and of itself is a very worthy thing to do," he said.
The White House released another statement Thursday clearing up Trump's statement on Wednesday where he claimed 65% of the EPA's staff would be cut.
A White House spokesperson elaborated more to ABC News, saying that the administration is "committed to eliminating 65% of the EPA’s wasteful spending."
