CONTEXT FROM GROK -- Mike Davis, founder of the Article III Project, discusses on "Real America's Voice" how President Trump plans to shift reliance from Leonard Leo and the Federalist Society to his own project for Supreme Court nominations, citing lessons learned from his first term and the need for more reliable judicial picks. The context involves Trump's previous dissatisfaction with Leo, expressed in a social media post on May 29, 2025, where he criticized Leo as a "real sleazebag" and suggested Leo's influence over the Federalist Society was detrimental, influencing Trump's decision to seek alternative sources for judicial nominations. This shift is part of a broader strategy to address perceived issues with "rogue judges" and ensure judicial appointments align more closely with Trump's administration goals, as indicated by discussions on legal setbacks and the targeting of activist judges by Trump's supporters in Congress.
