President Trump called for one federal judge seeking basic information about his deportation efforts to be impeached amid mounting concern about a constitutional showdown.

特朗普总统要求弹劾一名正在寻求获取关于他驱逐移民行动的基本信息的联邦法官，让一场宪法层面摊牌的担忧日益增加。

Another judge found that Mr. Trump’s efforts to shut down a federal agency probably violated the Constitution and stripped Congress of its authority.

另一名法官认为特朗普关闭一个联邦机构的做法可能违反了宪法，而且剥夺了国会的权力。

The president was accused of overstepping his executive authority yet again in firing two Democratic commissioners from an independent trade commission.

总统解除了一个独立贸易委员会两名民主党委员的职务，该做法导致了对他再次超越行政权力的指控。

And that was just Tuesday.

这些还只是发生在周二的事情。

Nearly two months into his second term, Mr. Trump is trying to consolidate control over the courts, Congress and even, in some ways, American society and culture.

特朗普再次担任总统已将近两个月，他正在试图巩固对法院和国会的控制权，甚至在某些方面试图巩固对美国社会和文化的控制权。

His expansive interpretation of presidential power has become the defining characteristic of his second term, an aggressive effort across multiple fronts to assert executive authority to reshape the government, drive policy in new directions and root out what he and his supporters see as a deeply embedded liberal bias.

他对总统权力的宽泛解读已成为第二个任期的决定性特征，他在各个方面行使行政权力，以重塑政府、推动政策转入新方向，并根除他和他的支持者眼中根深蒂固的自由主义偏见。

“We’ve never seen a president so comprehensively attempt to arrogate and consolidate so much of the other branches’ power, let alone to do so in the first two months of his presidency,” said Stephen Vladeck, a professor at Georgetown University Law Center.

“我们从来没有看到过一名总统如此全面地试图从这么多其他政府分支机构那里僭取并巩固权力，更不用说在担任总统头两个月的时间里这样做了，”乔治城大学法学院教授斯蒂芬·弗拉德克说。

Congress, which is controlled by Republicans, has ceded some of its core duties to Mr. Trump, handing off elements of the legislative branch’s spending authority to the White House and standing aside as congressionally chartered agencies are shuttered. The president has threatened to “lead the charge” against the re-election of the rare Republican who dares challenge his agenda, and the party has bent to his will at every turn.

由共和党控制的国会已将一些核心职责交给了特朗普，把立法部门控制支出的部分财权交给了白宫，在国会授权成立的机构被关闭时袖手旁观。特朗普已威胁要“带头反对”敢于挑战其议程的少数共和党人竞选连任，该党每次都屈从于他的意愿。

Mr. Trump has dismantled independent measures of checks and balances, fired inspectors general and installed loyalists at the Justice Department willing to carry out his campaign of retribution. He has targeted private law firms with connections to those he views as political enemies and cowed previously skeptical or hostile business leaders into pledging public support, even as he has imprinted his “MAGA” stamp on the private sector by trying to dictate hiring practices.

特朗普已废除了独立的制衡措施，解雇了总监察长，在司法部安插了忠诚分子，他们愿意为特朗普的报复行动效力。他已把目标对准与他视为政治敌人的人有联系的私人律师事务所，迫使以前对他持怀疑或敌对态度的商界领袖公开承诺支持他，为了把他的“让美国恢复伟大荣光”理念在私营部门留下烙印，他甚至试图对私营企业的招聘做法发号施令。

His efforts to reshape institutions in his image have not been limited to the government and policy. Mr. Trump has tried to spread his influence through the arts, as well, by making himself chairman of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington.

他按照自己的方式重塑机构的努力不限于政府和政策。特朗普还试图把自己的影响力扩大到艺术领域，任命自己为华盛顿约翰·肯尼迪表演艺术中心的主席。

But Mr. Trump’s latest target — the judiciary — has been described by constitutional scholars and historians as perhaps the most alarming power play to date.

但特朗普的最新打击目标——司法部门——已被宪法学者和历史学家们形容为可能是到目前为止最令人担忧的弄权之举。

The Trump administration brushed off an order by James E. Boasberg of the Federal District Court in Washington, who sought to pause the deportation of a group of migrants, many of whom received little to no due process. Administration officials said that most of the migrants were from Venezuela and that all of them were affiliated with gangs. But officials did not release the migrants’ names or evidence of their alleged crimes.

特朗普政府对华盛顿联邦地区法院詹姆斯·博斯伯格法官的命令置之不理，这名法官曾试图叫停对一批移民的驱逐行动，因为其中许多人几乎或者完全没有经过正当程序。政府官员说，这些移民中的大多数来自委内瑞拉，都与帮派有关。但官员并没有公布这些移民的姓名或他们涉嫌犯罪的证据。

Mr. Trump has called for Judge Boasberg to be impeached, arguing on social media that “if a President doesn’t have the right to throw murderers, and other criminals, out of our Country because a Radical Left Lunatic Judge wants to assume the role of President, then our Country is in very big trouble, and destined to fail!”

特朗普已要求弹劾博斯伯格，并在社交媒体上辩称，“如果一名总统无权将杀人犯和其他罪犯驱逐出我们的国家，只是因为一个激进左翼疯子法官想取代总统的职责，那么我们的国家已陷入了非常大的麻烦，而且注定要失败！”

The White House did not respond late Wednesday to a request for comment.

白宫在周三晚些时候没有回复记者的置评请求。

Mr. Trump has never been consistent in his attacks on the judicial system generally and on judges in particular. Last week during a speech at the Department of Justice, he suggested that criticism of Judge Aileen M. Cannon, the Florida jurist who dismissed the classified documents case against him last summer, may not be legal.

特朗普在笼统地攻击司法系统和具体地攻击法官时，从来都没有一致性。他上周在司法部发表讲话时曾暗示，对佛罗里达州的联邦法官艾琳·坎农的批评可能不合法，坎农去年夏天决定对涉及特朗普的机密文件案不予考虑。

But he has applied the same logic of fairness to court cases that he has to presidential elections: They’re fair if he wins but not if he loses.

但他判断法庭案件是否公平的逻辑与他判断总统选举是否公平的逻辑一样：他赢了的时候公平，他输了的时候不公平。

In one way or another, Mr. Trump has been a party to lawsuits going back to the 1970s, as a private developer and later as a candidate and president. When he has lost cases, he has tended to attack the judges in question as partisan activists or worse.

自20世纪70年代以来，特朗普一直是各种各样的诉讼案的一方，他那时是一名私人开发商，后来成了候选人和总统。当他输掉官司时，他常常会攻击涉案法官是带有党派偏见的激进分子，甚至说更难听的话。

When he wins, he praises the judge in question.

当他赢了官司时，他会赞扬涉案法官。

Mr. Trump’s allies say he is using his power to enact an agenda that he promised during the campaign, and that he is executing Article II of the Constitution, which sets out the powers of the president.

特朗普的盟友们说，他正在运用自己的权力来推行他在竞选期间承诺的议程，他是在执行宪法第二条赋予总统的权力。

“President Trump’s doing the unthinkable in Washington — he’s doing what he told Americans he was going to do, and he’s doing it fast,” said Mike Davis, founder of the Article III Project, a conservative advocacy group.

“特朗普总统正在做华盛顿难以想象的事情——他正在做他告诉美国人他要做的事情，而且做得很快，”保守派倡导组织Article III Project的创始人迈克·戴维斯说。

保守派倡导组织Article III Project的创始人迈克·戴维斯是特朗普的盟友之一，他说，特朗普不过是在行使权力，实施选民在他获胜后要求他实施的议程。

Still, a few traditionally right-leaning voices have expressed concern.

尽管如此，一些传统上偏右的声音已表示了担忧。

The Wall Street Journal editorial page, for example, said Mr. Trump had campaigned on deporting gang members, “but it’s still troubling to see U.S. officials appear to disdain the law in the name of upholding it.” The New York Post ran a headline on its opinion page that said: “Trump, don’t heed the dangerous urge to attack the rule of law."

例如，《华尔街日报》社论版称，特朗普在竞选期间表示要把帮派成员驱逐出境，“但看到美国官员们好像是在维护法律的名义下蔑视法律，仍令人不安。”《纽约邮报》在其观点版发表的一篇文章的标题是：“特朗普，不要听从攻击法治的危险冲动。”

Both papers are part of the media empire of Rupert Murdoch, Mr. Trump’s on-again, off-again ally.

这两份报纸都是鲁珀特·默多克媒体帝国的一部分，默多克有时是特朗普的盟友，有时不是。

The judiciary, created to provide checks and balances to both the executive and legislative branches, has only rarely faced such open defiance, experts say. Some of Mr. Trump’s top lieutenants have suggested he has a right to defy court orders.

美国司法部门的设立，是为了制衡行政部门和立法部门的权力，但司法部门以前几乎没有遇到过如此公开的蔑视。特朗普的一些高级副手们已暗示他有权违抗法院命令。

“Judges aren’t allowed to control the executive’s legitimate power,” Vice President JD Vance declared last month.

副总统万斯上个月宣称：“不允许法官控制行政部门的合法权力。”

“I don’t care what the judges think — I don’t care what the left thinks,” Mr. Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, said this week during an appearance on “Fox & Friends.”

“我不在乎法官们怎么想——我不在乎左派们怎么想，”特朗普的边境事务主管汤姆·霍曼本周在《福克斯与朋友们》节目上说。
