And rather than prove that assertion, because who wants to spend time doing something fruitful like supporting their argument, one can merely speak a thing and make a thing so. Got it.

I assumed you were familiar with the Constitution but maybe I'm wrong, so I'll help you out. The Constitution specifies two, and only two, ways to remove the President from office.

The first way provided by the Constitution to remove the President from office is by impeachment and conviction, as stated in Article 2 Section 4 of the Constitution, and by the procedures described in Article 1, sections 3 and 4.

The second way is via removal by the 25th Amendment, and by the Procedures described therein. And that's it

It should be noted neither of those procedures involves the federal court system at all, other than stating that the Chief Justice presides over the impeachment trial of the President in the Senate. But even then, only the votes of the senators themselves can remove the president from office.

This request that the Supreme Court, on its own authority, remove both the President and Congress from office is ridiculously far beyond the scope of anything even hinted at in the Constitution. If you disagree, please feel free to quote the article and section, or constitutional amendment, that specifically authorizes the Supreme Court to do this.
