If the U.S. Supreme Court is going to start issuing orders, without warning, to limit the elected President at 1:00 AM, as it just did, the President should take direct action against federal judges IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT AND REMOVE THEM as lawless, unconstitutional perpetrators of a coup against the President and against the Republic.

If the new rule is to take decisive action after midnight, accept the rule and let the President take that same merciless action against the judiciary and give them a counterpunch late at night.

There has to be a limit on how many times you can appeal. If your appeal has been denied, that should be it, & deportation should begin with all due speed.

No, it’s time to assault the judiciary.

The judicial offices must be entered with a valid warrant searching for all poetical input from outside. Judicial staffs should be arrested and detained for aiding and abetting weaponization of the legal system.

Attack, attack, attack.....

“The courts are the last line of restraint.”

That is exactly why the left targeted them early as a critical part of their long march through the institutions.

I sure hope the Legislative and Judicial Branches got triggered by President Trump displaying the Declaration of Independence in the Oval Office.

President Trump was elected to 1776 the Swamp.

It seems clear to me that the broad scope and speed of the administration’s actions have knocked the sense out of the media, the Democrats and, alas, the judiciary.

The HBM (Has Been Media) and the Democrats haven't had much sense for a long time (see Tagline), and the judiciary hasn't been a whole lot better.

The courts are the last line of restraint. If they get overrun, every man does what is right in his own eyes.

The courts aren't the last stop.

They would still need to impeach the president, to stop the president from legitimately using the Alien Enemies Act to deport.

No impeachment. No stoppy.

If you have a legal basis for telling them to F@#$ off, then do so. Quit waiting for SCOTUS. SCOTUS has repeatedly issued rulings only to have lower courts simply ignore them. NOt just when the SCOTUS ruling was single case specific, but even when they issue something for widespread application.

UntilSCOTUS gets off its butt and reins in the inferior courts, in writing and in public, just lay out legal basis and go forward.

The bible is clear on this. Legitimate government PUNISHES EVILDOERS. As Christians we have a duty to obey legitimate government. We have no such duty when evildoers are not punished.

Ballot box, jury box, cartridge box.

"I only have a rumor on Reddit right now—but they are claiming the administration has put a large number of leftist immigration judges on administrative leave in the past few days."

I recall a comment made by attorney Robert Barnes on his "Bourbon /w Barnes" podcast that these "immigration judges" are not really judges. They are not part of the federal Judiciary. They members of the administrative bureaucracy, which makes them part of the Executive branch.

Article II of the United States Constitution says "the executive power shall be vested in a President of the United States".

So who runs the Executive branch? Well, that would be one President Donald John Trump.

Stay tuned folks. This could get interesting.

The judges are grinding MAGA down. DOJ is not very effective to what most want to see.

If you want to look at what the judges are up to you need to break it down into four large pieces, because MAGA’s status is different for each piece. (There is some other stuff outside of those four but they are a relatively small number of cases.)

1. Firing federal employees

2. Eliminating federal grants and programs

3. Eliminating bad regulations

4. Fighting illegal immigration.

I have been paying very close attention on 1—and the courts have made a lot of headlines but the employees are going, going, gone. At most they may get some back pay at some distant point.

That is because the administration has used an “all of the above” strategy that is working even if individual pieces have had some minor delays.

—Ending telework
—Deferred retirement program (DRP) 1.0 and 2.0
—Eliminating bureaus, departments, divisions
—Eliminating local offices
—Offering other early retirement programs
—RIFs (reductions in force) used as a last resort

By the end of summer the administration should reach all of its employee reduction goals.

In the case of 2. any court cases will be moot by the time next year’s budget is passed by Congress. Meanwhile most waste, fraud, abuse and evil has been stopped cold.

The courts have been relatively silent on 3. and a large number of bad regulations are gone and many more are in the process of being gone.

So—what we are left with is 4. There are issues there for sure. The administration has begun implementing plans to deal with them including streamlining the hearing process, creating large detention centers in the US, and rapidly deporting those who have already had hearings. In this case you post is valid—the courts have slowed down the process.
