Even Lou Dobbs got a chuckle out of the retweet by POTUS while his Repub strategist guest was not amused. Love Lou!

oooh interesting VI courts are TRIBUNALS! Congressional Tribunals, but Tribunals none the less.

Federal courts in Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands and the U.S. Virgin Islands are Article IV territorial courts.[87][88]

The United States territorial courts are tribunals established in territories of the United States by the United States Congress, pursuant to its power under Article Four of the United States Constitution, the Territorial Clause.[1]

Their jurisdiction is similar to that of United States district courts, but despite the similarity of names, they are not “United States district courts” (though they sometimes use that term). “United States district courts”, created under Article III of the U.S. Constitution, exist only in United States federal judicial districts, which are found only in the 50 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico.

The territorial courts themselves, as article IV courts, also assume the jurisdiction of a United States bankruptcy court in their respective territories; they do not have separate bankruptcy courts under their supervision, as do the article III U.S. district courts.

Article IV judges do not have the authority to decide petitioners’ appeals or be appointed to a United States Court of Appeals.[1] The U.S. Supreme Court case Nguyen v. United States, 540 U.S. 935 (2003), presented the question of whether a panel of the Court of Appeals consisting of two Article III judges and one Article IV judge had the authority to decide petitioners’ appeals. The U.S. Supreme court declared that it did not.
