What’s happening right now is that Democrats, having been thrown out of power by American voters in a landslide victory for Trump, have decided they’re going to deploy a widely-used tactic from Trump’s first term to thwart the president’s agenda: use the federal judiciary. Under the false pretext that the lower federal courts are part of a “coequal branch of government” with the executive, they’re aiming to shut down Trump’s reform efforts with a fusillade of preliminary injunctions.
In recent days dozens of lawsuits have been filed against the Trump administration by Democrat attorneys general and various left-wing groups. These groups have carefully selected their venues, ensuring the lawsuits come before rabidly anti-Trump activist judges. So far, the tactic seems to be working. As of this past weekend, eight different rulings from the federal bench have temporarily halted the president’s executive orders.
Federal judges in Democrat-majority districts have issued preliminary injunctions blocking Trump’s executive actions to end birthright citizenship, reform and downsize the United States Agency for International Development, and offer buyouts to federal bureaucrats. A federal judge this past weekend blocked Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency and all other political appointees in the Trump administration — including the Treasury secretary and his deputies — from accessing payment data at the Treasury Department.

The problem is, as my colleague Sean Davis noted recently on X, federal judges have no actual authority to do this. They can’t decide on their own who the president can talk to or what data he can access. They can’t bind the president at all. According to the U.S. Constitution they’re “inferior” courts and therefore don’t have any authority over the executive branch. Yes, the three branches of the federal government are coequal, but the only part of the federal judiciary that’s equal to the presidency is the Supreme Court, not all the federal district courts scattered across the country.
~Snip~
It’s long past time to settle this. The American people overwhelmingly elected Trump precisely because they wanted to see his agenda for America enacted. Lower court federal judges, whom no one voted for, have no right to assert their will over and against the will of the American people. The sooner the Supreme Court takes this up and settles the obvious question, the sooner Democrat lawfare against Trump’s agenda will come to an end. Instead of relying on activist judges, Democrats might then have to figure out how to compete at the ballot box — something they are obviously loath to do.


Commentary:
Since Neo-Marxist Democrats have muddied our judicial system with activist judges more than willing to do the Democrat's bidding.
Since we no longer have a legal justice system, red state AG’s should make this a complete clown show. Texas is very much in line with what Trump has done, and Paxton should be filing lawsuits over every one of these “decisions.” I have read he is investigating a couple schools in the Dallas area who are hiding their transvestite athletes.
A solution to deter Democrats shopping for politicized district court judges to get injunctions against their political opposition is to require an application for Temporary Restraining Order against the government or federal legislation be heard by 5 district judges nationally chosen by blind pool. Such legal arguments can be made in one 'Zoom' presentation to the 5 judges. That would stymie forum shopping and we would see less apps for TROs if the Democrat legal, operatives could not stack the deck with one of their judges

Weird how they are only activist when they disagree with you.

But then again you kids are really weird so...

Same old boring shit and baseless accusations by MAGATS.
The judges are simply pointing out that Trump's EO policies in regards to circumventing Congress - are UNCONSTITUTIONAL

 

[TemplarKormac]

He may have to spend allocated funds, but he can decide what to spend it on in each agency he controls.

Okay, but where in current law allows him to do that?

Spending Congressionally allocated funds for things other than their intended purpose is unconstitutional at this point.

Interested in your take.

 

[toobfreak]

Trump is breaking the law.

Name it. Name the law. Tell us which law Trump broke that an inferior court judge has standing to overrule a president? The only court in the land with standing to oppose the president is the co-equal Supreme Court, asshole.

Prove me wrong.

The strategy here is to get Congress to act. They probably already know some of these EOs are unconstitutional.

Hey FAGGAT, tell me how the constitution permits a mere inferior district court judge to make a national decision overruling the Executive Office of the president? To do that, every district court in the USA would have to have the constitutional authority of the Supreme Court, shithead.

Prove me wrong.

May I ask which EO you're referring to?

 

[toobfreak]

Congress is Legislative, not judicial. So how do you propose the Congress act???

They probably already know some of these EOs are unconstitutional.

Name one and tell us what part of the Constitution it violates.

Off course - even Trump today in a White-House press conference acquitted towards "respecting" the law.

 

[TemplarKormac]

By proposing legislation that matches the language of the EO.

 

[Kruska]

Hey FAGGAT, tell me how the constitution .......

Hey cocksucker, how are things going with your shithead?

 

[toobfreak]

He may have to spend allocated funds, but he can decide what to spend it on in each agency he controls.

Trump has every authority to redefine an agency and to suspend its operation in order to affirm that it is indeed spending the money how and where ascribed by Congress. In fact, that is exactly how Biden stopped funding in Ukraine mandated by Congress and stopped building the border wall that Congress had also mandated.

 

[toobfreak]

Hey cocksucker, how are things going?

Just terrible for YOU, FAGGAT.

 

[Kruska]

Just terrible for YOU, FAGGAT.

No, cocksucker - I am fine since I do not support an asshole of a President that hasn't even billed a budget for 2025 - and as such is bound to the existing Congressional billed budget - you shithead.

 

[toobfreak]

You don't remember any such thing. You are fantasizing, making up shit in your own head. You're creating b.s out of your vague and disjointed recollection of a reality that you were barely conscious of at the time it happened.

Blow it out your ears. What will your story be when either SCOTUS or Congress steps in and overrules all these judges?!
No inferior court judge can make a judicial decision on what is by design, an agency of the Executive Branch.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Hey, don't get mad at me, it's the Impoundment Control Act. It's the law.

 

[toobfreak]

No, cocksucker - I am fine since I do not support an asshole of a President

You didn't support the criminal Joe Bedpan, neither?

I will be laughing hard at YOU when all these asshat democrat active judges are told to sit down and STFU.

Even better, with luck, Congress will close their offices.

 

[toobfreak]

Actually they are:

Article 3, Section 1​

The judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish. The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour, and shall, at stated Times, receive for their Services, a Compensation, which shall not be diminished during their Continuance in Office.

The inferior courts were created so that SCOTUS would not have to rule on every federal matter. They have no judicial authority to supersede the Executive branch, that would give them the same power as Congress and the Supreme Court.

 

[Kruska]

You didn't support the criminal Joe Bedpan, neither?

Show me the court-ruling that would support your ridiculous and false claim of Biden being a criminal, or STFU
And no - I never supported Biden you dumb-ass.

I will be laughing hard at YOU when all these asshat democrat active judges are told to sit down and STFU.

Even better, with luck, Congress will close their offices.

It's Congress privilege and that of the USSC to do that - not your asshole and CONVICTED FELON President. -dumb-ass
