Rozdarcia widać jednak coraz mocniej w kakofonii warstw architektonicznych i tych codziennych - śmieciowych. Nie ma w nim razem - jest dwieście tysięcy ja.

  18. Tracking Trump’s Legal Cases — January 2026 Monthly Report

    Tracking Trump’s Legal Cases — January 2026 Monthly Report

    Editor’s Note: Coverage window: January 1–31, 2026. Assisted by ChatGPT in the analysis.

    January 2026 — Key Items at a Glance

    • Federal courts continued to shape policy outcomes through interim rulings (injunctions, stays, rehearing denials).
    • Litigation over federal workforce reductions advanced into appellate and emergency-procedure lanes.
    • Judges blocked or constrained immigration status changes and SNAP-related actions at the state and regional level.
    • Legal challenges remained fragmented across venues, reinforcing courts—not Congress—as the primary gatekeepers.

    Documentation note: This monthly report follows the same standards as the 2025 Annual Legal Report. For the full categorized bibliography supporting this series, see Sources & Documentation — 2025.

    I. Editor’s Framing — January as a Signal Month

    January 2026 did not deliver sweeping final rulings, but it clarified how legal conflict around the Trump administration is now being managed. Courts continued to rely on procedural tools—preliminary injunctions, emergency motions, rehearing denials—to control policy effects while merits litigation remains unresolved.

    In practice, these interim decisions increasingly determine what policies remain in force. January therefore serves as an early indicator of pace, posture, and institutional tolerance rather than outcome.

    II. Chronological Record of Key Developments

    A. Federal Workforce Reductions and Appellate Litigation

    On January 5, 2026, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit issued an order in American Federation of Government Employees, AFL–CIO, et al. v. Trump, denying rehearing petitions tied to challenges against Executive Order 14210 directing large-scale federal reductions in force. The ruling did not resolve the underlying legality, but it reinforced that workforce restructuring disputes are now moving primarily through emergency and appellate channels.

    B. Immigration Status Litigation and Injunctive Relief

    Later in the month, a federal judge blocked the administration’s effort to terminate legal status for more than 8,400 family members of U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents from several Latin American countries. As in prior immigration cases, plaintiffs secured injunctive relief focused on immediate harm, preserving the status quo while broader legal questions proceed.

    C. Benefits Administration: SNAP-Related Court Intervention

    On January 28, a federal judge blocked an administration order affecting SNAP in Colorado. This case fits a recurring January pattern: state-level challenges producing rapid judicial intervention when federal directives threaten near-term disruption, even absent nationwide resolution.

    D. Enforcement and Protest-Related Litigation Signals

    At month’s end, reporting from Minnesota described legal action around intensified federal immigration enforcement and related protests, including a judge declining to halt certain activities. While the January rulings were limited, the disputes signal expanding litigation touching DHS enforcement, evidentiary standards, and jurisdictional authority.

    III. Thematic Analysis — Patterns Emerging in January

    1) Interim rulings are becoming the operational center

    January reinforced a core reality of this litigation era: the most consequential decisions are often not final merits rulings but interim controls—preliminary injunctions, temporary restraining orders, emergency motions, and appellate posture. In practice, these interim outcomes determine which policies stay “live” while cases proceed on multi-month (or multi-year) schedules. A clear example is the late-January preliminary injunction blocking the administration’s attempt to terminate legal status for more than 8,400 family members of U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents, preserving the status quo while broader legal questions continue.

    2) Immigration litigation is splintering into targeted, venue-specific restraints

    Rather than a single master case, immigration disputes in January produced a series of narrow, fast-moving restraints in particular jurisdictions. Late in the month, a U.S. judge temporarily blocked a policy affecting lawful refugees in Minnesota who were awaiting green cards—another example of courts using early procedural tools to prevent immediate harm while litigation proceeds.

    3) Scale and fragmentation: the “system story” is visible mainly through trackers

    Individual headlines can obscure the true scope of legal conflict. Litigation trackers show the wider terrain: Just Security’s tracker (updated in early February) describes hundreds of active challenges across agencies and issue areas, documenting a litigation environment that is both high-volume and geographically dispersed. The practical effect is fragmentation—many cases, many venues, uneven timelines—making procedural developments (stays, injunctions, rehearing decisions) disproportionately important.

    4) Supreme Court emergency-docket pressure remains a defining feature

    The Supreme Court’s emergency docket continues to shape outcomes through stays and fast-track requests, even when merits decisions remain distant. Ballotpedia offers a running compilation of Trump-administration-related emergency orders, alongside SCOTUS-focused docket tracking, underscores how often major disputes now seek relief through emergency pathways rather than ordinary appellate pacing.

    IV. What Did Not Happen — Absence as Early Data

    • No comprehensive ruling resolved broad categories of executive action.
    • No major legislative intervention reduced reliance on courts as arbiters.
    • No clear slowdown in filing volume despite procedural fatigue.

    V. Impact Snapshot

    • Rule of law: Maintained primarily through judicial process rather than statutory reform.
    • Normalization: Emergency and interim procedures are now routine.
    • Public visibility: Fragmented, with systemic scale visible mainly through trackers.

    VII. February 2026 Watchpoints

  23. Windows 11 January 2026 preview patch is out!

    Microsoft have recently released this month’s preview patch for Windows 11 computers and laptops, and they usually contain new features that the normal patches will include. These new features, along with many improvements and bug fixes, will enhance your user experience by making some of the features easier to use. The official changelogs for this preview patch is:

    • [Agent in Settings] ​​​​​​​New! The Settings Agent now supports more languages, with expanded support for German, Portuguese, Spanish, Korean, Japanese, Hindi, Italian, and Chinese (Simplified).
    • [Cross Device Resume] New! This update expands the functionality of Cross‑Device Resume, which Microsoft first introduced in the May 2025 Windows non-security update (KB5058499). You can continue activities from your Android phone on your PC based on the apps and services you use, including resuming Spotify playback, working in Word, Excel, or PowerPoint, or continuing a browsing session.
      • Vivo Android phone users can continue browsing from Vivo Browser on their PC.
      • If you use an Android phone from HONOR, OPPO, Samsung, vivo, or Xiaomi, you can resume online files that you opened in the Microsoft Copilot app on your phone and continue working on them on your PC. Files open in the corresponding Microsoft 365 app on your PC if it is installed. If the app is not installed, the files open in your default web browser. This feature does not support offline files stored only on your phone.
    • [Windows MIDI Services] New! This update improves MIDI on Windows with enhanced support for MIDI 1.0 and MIDI 2.0, including full WinMM and WinRT MIDI 1.0 support with built-in translation, shared MIDI ports across apps, custom port names, loopback and app-to-app MIDI, plus performance improvements and bug fixes—delivering a better experience for musicians. The App SDK and Tools package is a separate download that enables inbox MIDI 2.0 features and includes tools like MIDI Console and the MIDI Settings app. Releases are available on the Windows MIDI Services landing page and GitHub and are currently unsigned, which might display a security warning during download or installation. 
    • [Narrator] New! Narrator now gives you more control over how it announces on‑screen controls. You can choose which details are spoken and adjust their order to match how you navigate apps. These settings apply throughout the app to help reduce extra speech and make Narrator easier to follow. 
    • [Settings] New!1 You can view the Device card on the Settings home page. It shows key specifications and usage details for your PC. From the card, you can go directly to Settings > System > About for more detailed information about your device. This card appears when you sign in with your Microsoft account. This feature rollout has resumed after being paused during the August 2025 release. 
    • [Smart App Control] New! You can turn Smart App Control (SAC) on or off without any clean install requirement. To make changes, go to Windows Security > App & Browser Control > Smart App Control settings. When turned on, SAC helps block untrusted or potentially harmful apps. To learn more, see App & Browser Control in the Windows Security App – Microsoft Support. 
    • [Voice Access] New! A streamlined setup makes it easier to get started with Voice Access. The redesigned experience helps you download a speech model for your chosen language, select your preferred input microphone, and learn what Voice Access can help you do on your Windows PC.  
    • [Voice Typing] New! The Wait time before acting setting in Voice Typing enables you to adjust the delay before a voice command runs. This setting gives you flexibility for different speech patterns and improves recognition accuracy whether you speak slowly or quickly. 
    • [Windows Hello] New! Windows Hello Enhanced Sign-in Security (ESS) now supports peripheral fingerprint sensors. This update extends this more secure sign in option beyond devices with built in fingerprint sensors to include desktops and other Windows 11 PCs, including Copilot+ PCs. To get started, plug in a supported ESS fingerprint reader, go to Settings > Accounts > Sign in options, and follow the prompts to enroll.  
    • [Start Menu]
      • Fixed: This update addresses an issue where the warning message that appears when you shut down your computer while other users are signed in might be cut off at the edge of the Start menu.
      • Fixed: This update addresses an issue where Start menu might open on the wrong side of the screen when you use Arabic or Hebrew as your display language and the taskbar icons aren’t centered.
    • [Kiosk mode] Changed: This update removes an error message that might show after you sign in for multi-app kiosk mode. The message said, “This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer”. 
    • [Windows Update] Fixed: This update addresses an issue where trying to join the Windows Insider Program from Settings > Windows Update might get stuck. 
    • [Lock screen] Improved: This update includes some underlying changes that help address cases where the lock screen might become unresponsive. 
    • [File Explorer] Improved: This update includes some underlying changes that help improve responsiveness of File Explorer when navigating in network locations. 
    • [Logging into your PC] Fixed: This update addresses an issue where Explorer.exe might stop responding (hang) the first time you sign in to your PC, if certain apps were configured as startup apps. This could make the taskbar not appear. 
    • [Activation] Fixed: This update addresses an issue where, in some cases, valid Windows license migration might fail when upgrading because the device couldn’t register with the Windows Activation server for its digital license, requiring the use of the troubleshooter to fix.
    • [Desktop icons] Fixed: This update addresses an issue where desktop icons unexpectedly move when interacting with files, such as opening or renaming them. 
    • [Input]: Fixed: This update addresses an issue where the keyboard character repeat delay labels in Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Keyboard were reversed.
    • [User Account Control (UAC)] Fixed: This update addresses an issue where your PC might stop responding when attempting to run Windows Terminal elevated from a non-admin account.
    • [Windows Sandbox] Fixed: This update addresses an issue that could cause Windows Sandbox to stop responding during start up and display error 0x800705b4.
    • [Secure Boot] This release for Windows 11, version 24H2 will execute updates in the Boot Manager on devices that already have the Windows UEFI CA 2023 certificate in their Secure Boot Signature Database (DB). It replaces the 2011 signed bootmgfw.efi with the 2023 signed bootmgfw.efi. Be advised of the consequences of resetting the DB or turning Secure Boot on or off, as this can cause a “Secure Boot violation” issue. In those rare cases, the solution is to create the Secure Boot recovery media. 
    • [Security] New! This update adds a feature for Data Protection Application Programming Interface (DPAPI) domain backup key management. Administrators can now set how often keys rotate automatically. This strengthens cryptographic security and reduces reliance on older encryption algorithms.
    • [Authentication (known issue)] Fixed: This update fixes an issue where the Password icon might not appear in Sign-in options on the lock screen after you install KB5064081 or a later update. ​​​​​​​
    • [Display and Graphics] Fixed: This update addresses black screen issues in isolated multiuser environments, typically after a Windows upgrade. 
    • [File Explorer] Fixed: This update addresses an issue where folder renaming with desktop.ini files in File Explorer isn’t work correctly. The LocalizedResourceName setting is ignored, so custom folder names don’t appear.
    • [Graphics] Fixed: This update addresses an issue where certain GPU configurations might recently have experienced a system error related to dxgmms2.sys, resulting in the KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE error.
    • [Narrator] Fixed: This update addresses an issue where Narrator might not start during Windows installation from an ISO file. 
    • [Other] Fixed: This update addresses an issue that could cause a system to stop responding during startup when Windows Boot Manager debugging is enabled. This occurs due to kdstub.dll and kdnet.dll components. 
    • [Other] Fixed: This update addresses an issue that might cause iSCSI boot to fail with an “Inaccessible Boot Device” error. 
    • [Other] Fixed: This update addresses an issue that affects the C Runtime (CRT) libraries in the Windows Software Development Kit. BinSkim identifies these libraries as non-compliant with the Microsoft SDL. ​​​​​​​ 
    • [Start Menu] Fixed: This update addresses an issue where, for some users, selecting the “hide this pane” button in the mobile device side panel might not lead to the setting to hide the pane.

    To install this update, you can click on the Download and Install button that shows up below the cumulative update preview version just like this:

    Or, you can enable the faster update rollout option that shows up in the Windows Update page so that you’ll automatically get the preview updates without having to manually check for updates:

    Please note that preview updates may have stability issues that are usually fixed in the final update release. Also, we recommend downloading such updates over non-metered connections to avoid extra charges. Installation of updates on an SSD should not take more than 10 minutes, but performing the same update on an HDD may take more than 30 minutes.

    Enjoy the new features!
