Agents of the federal government destroyed the U.S. Constitution a long time ago. Today, only a shell of that document’s substance remains, and its spirit has almost entirely vanished.
Thus, President Donald Trump and his allies, including Elon Musk, owner of the social media platform X and head of Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency, must defeat the Democrat-dominated establishment, including federal judges who have usurped power not granted to them by the Constitution, in order to restore some semblance of constitutional self-government in the United States.
In an interview with Fox News’ Brian Kilmeade on Tuesday, legal scholar Jonathan Turley insisted that the recent phenomenon of federal judges “intruding” on the president’s constitutional authority “can’t stand.”
The fascinating interview covered three major issues in less than four minutes.
First, Kilmeade asked about a judge’s decision to freeze Trump’s buyout offer for federal employees.
“I think that Trump is on very solid ground with the buyout,” Turley replied. “I’m still a bit baffled by what the court is doing here.”
The legal expert then correctly explained that those buyout offers fall under the president’s Article II authority.

“I’m not, even today, certain what the constitutional problem is,” Turley said.
Indeed, for no such problem exists. Anyone with a 5th-grade level of constitutional knowledge understands that the president controls the executive branch.
Are federal judges overstepping their authority to target Trump?
Next, Kilmeade asked about DOGE having access to data from the U.S. Treasury Department.
Turley replied that while courts conceivably could address privacy-related issues, this particular federal judge went far beyond the court’s authority in denying Trump administration officials, including actual Treasury employees, access to said data.
“But I think the court really got ahead of its skis here,” Turley said. “It went way too far in shutting down Treasury officials from looking at this material.”
“I think that ultimately that can’t stand,” he added.
Finally, Kilmeade asked about a judge’s decision to pause Trump’s mass layoffs of employees at the sinister United States Agency for International Development, a CIA- and State Department-adjacent organization that has funded nefarious projects abroad and at home.
Turley responded with a useful metaphor involving Congress, the president, and naval defense spending.
“See, that’s another problem with how these cases are constructed,” the legal expert said. “
You know, Congress can make decisions.
They’re the ones who buy ships, but it is the president that decides who’s going to take the ship out and the crew. He could reduce the number of crew members.”
“I think that the court is really intruding significantly into the president’s authority,” he added moments later.
.
The key point, of course, involves restoring the Constitution. And that requires addressing the founding document from two crucial perspectives.

Legal Expert Jonathan Turley Says Courts Are 'Intruding' on Trump's Authority in a Way That 'Can't Stand'
Turley blasted federal judges and, in so doing, joined the likes of George Washington and Thomas Jefferson in defending separation of powers.
