这些裁决阻碍了推进总统对行政部门拥有广泛控制权这一观点的努力。
The rulings stymied efforts to advance an expansive view of the president’s control over the executive branch.
联邦法官阻碍了唐纳德·特朗普总统聘用或解雇联邦检察官的努力——这些决定可能会波及行政部门的其他部分。
Judges have impeded President Donald Trump’s efforts to hire or fire federal prosecutors — decisions that could reverberate through other parts of the executive branch.
在最近几周，联邦法官剥夺了特朗普解雇一名法院任命的最高联邦检察官的权力，阻止他绕过参议院让另一名最高联邦检察官留任，并阻止他解雇一名助理美国检察官。
In recent weeks, federal judges have stripped Trump of the ability to fire a court-appointed top federal prosecutor, bypass the Senate to keep another top federal prosecutor in place and fire an assistant U.S. attorney.
这三项裁决阻碍了政府推进一种广泛的行政权力观点的努力，该观点将允许总统在无需参议院确认的情况下安插忠诚者，并无故解雇他视为不忠的人。全国各地的联邦法官都告诉他，这两件事他都做不到。
That trio of rulings has stymied the administration’s efforts to advance an expansive view of executive power that would allow the president to install loyalists without Senate confirmation and fire those he perceives as disloyal without cause. Across the country, federal judges have told him he can’t do either.
