“Trump doesn’t have the authority to impeach a judge, only congress has that authority. “

And the ‘judge’ doesn’t have the authority to usurp the executive power and issue unconstitutional edicts. But he does. See how that works?

a Freeper said they are term limited and confirmed by Congress. Not sure but I think the prez can remove the judge. Will look into it.

Because that’s the difference between a Tyrant and an elected President.

As opposed to a judicial tyrant...Which is what we have now. Non-elected judges given total authority over the President and Congress because the propaganda media has conditioned the masses of asses to think the judiciary has the final say. They don’t.

which brings us back to Trump the first idea. Ignore inferior courts. Ignore State courts. Go right to the SCOTUS until such time as they grow so tired, they reign in the inferior courts, which SCOTUS had jurisdictional and quasi plenary powers.

Ignore the inferior, Respect the Judicial and he won’t be a tyrant, he’ll be putting all those #nevertrump judges in their place.

As the creation of Congress, the federal courts do not have veto power over The executive branch and its actions. In fact the argument could be made then unless the President is breaking the law only the Supreme Court in conjunction with Congress has any real power or hope to really stop a presidents actions.

It takes two branches to overrule another. President Trump should go tell them to pack sand.

That begs the question when did judges become legislators? It seems they should be able to challenge whether a executive order is constitutional but not shut it down. I wonder where these same judges were when Obama changed the ACA law 37 times?

“Go right to the SCOTUS until such time as they grow so tired, they reign in the inferior courts, which SCOTUS had jurisdictional and quasi plenary powers.”

Wrong. That’s not how it’s supposed to work. Each branch has enumerated powers under the Constitution. Congressmen, Presidents and Supreme Court Justices take an oath to uphold defend the Constitution. If SCROTUS justices were upholding their oaths, they would vacate the lower court ‘rulings’.

If we do it your way, the wrong way, the corrupt courts would effectively neutralize Trump as POTUS. Taking every executive decision through a laborious court process. BTW, that is exactly why these rogue judges are doing what they’re doing.
Stall, impede & #resist.

It’s up to Congress to impeach, not Trump.

So he’s making a ruling, even though he’s not even on the bench? Is that what you’re saying?

Trump really needs to take a stand on one of these. Make an order for the process to continue as he laid out. Let the judges see there’s not much they can do to stop it. This crap will slow down at least. What are they going to do?

The Federal Judiciary has two classes of judges with respect to serving: You have actual sitting, full-time (current) judges and then you have judges of senior status (de facto retired judges). Said judge in this matter is not a “sitting judge” but a senior status one, and has been for almost 15 years (meaning they’ll take an occasional case).

While his “ruling” may be considered “legit”, I don’t think any de facto retired judges should have any authority to issue them. Eliminating senior status judges should be paramount, since they can obviously be utilized to make such egregious political rulings without any real repercussions (meaning, I don’t believe any senior status judge has been removed from the bench, only current sitting judges), short of a higher court tossing the ruling.

I haven’t recently. He led but the scotus does have an enumerated responsibility over inferior courts. And these inferior courts are interfering and usurping executive powers. So it would be the best route to go in my humble opinion.

The president is the CinC and making a common sense decision that mentally deranged people not be permitted to carry military weapons is his duty. The judge is not legislating but interfering with military oversight probably just to test his ability to get away with it.
