Holding
The Court holds that this notice, continuing for one year the national emergency with respect to significant transnational criminal organizations, aligns strongly with the Standard. It defends the safety and welfare of United States citizens against organized criminal violence (Article XVIII), maintains national-security authority against an unusual and extraordinary threat to national security and foreign policy (Article XVI), and prioritizes protection of the United States and its citizens against foreign-based threats (Article I). Scored under the default 70/30 weighting as an official presidential notice. No Automatic Fail is triggered. Final score 83 — America First.
It is the judgment of this Court that Opinion No. 2026-0666 is hereby entered into the record, in accordance with the America First Constitutional Standard. The score stands. The reasoning is published. The record is public.
