There are almost 700 federal district court judges. I say “almost,” because while officially there are 677 of them, some retired judges have taken senior status and may sit from time to time on cases, so the figure is inexact on any given day. Since President Trump was sworn in for a second term, there have been an avalanche of cases seeking relief from executive actions. Last month alone district court judges issued 15 temporary restraining orders. “That’s more nationwide injunctions than there were issued for the first three YEARS of the Biden Administration. District court judges are out of control.“
A Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) is designed to maintain the status quo after a claim is made that there is an emergency requiring the court to maintain the matter in a holding pattern -- usually for 10-14 days -- until a hearing on the issue can be held. A TRO can be granted ex parte, that is with only the plaintiff being present and without a hearing on the issue at all. The plaintiff must show the likelihood of success on the merits of the claim and that the harm to him outweighs any potential harm to the opposing party. To get one, the plaintiff has to show the likelihood of irreparable injury if the court fails to act. After a hearing, the court may issue a Preliminary Injunction (PI) directing some action or continuing the initial restraint until a full trial on the matter is held. To obtain a PI that lasts throughout the course of litigation, the plaintiff must meet a higher standard of proof. “A TRO requires the applicant to show a substantial likelihood of success and immediate harm, while a preliminary injunction involves a more rigorous evaluation of the merits, balance of equities, and public

These loony judges need to be impeached.
They are TOO BIG FOR THEIR ROBES! IMPEACH!
“These loony judges need to be impeached.”
Yes, and Trump should ignore these rulings. Why on earth is Trump’s lawyers insisting that Trump has to comply with these orders. And I don’t care is the Supreme Court says Trump has to comply with these orders.
Let there be a Constitutional crisis. That is preferred to allowing the country to be destroyed.
“These loony judges need to be impeached.”
Better yet, our worthless GOPe congress dissolves these courts. A boy can dream.
the sole goal of judicial impertinence is to hold up our duly elected President from doing what needs to be done in a timely manner until the leftists and their rinoclass cronies can run out the clock. the bought and paid for or blackmailed blackrobe people, who’s names don’t need posting, will do all they can to make sure that happens. they think we’ll thank them one day.
When I win the lottery I’m going to buy a few of them.
Nowhere in the Constitution are district court judges granted the power to issue nationwide TROs or nationwide injunctions. This is a power district courts simply started claiming for themselves in the 1960s. Personally, I think President Trump needs to just act as though they are not legitimate and ignore them. That would force Roberts to quit stalling and delaying because it suits him personally to see President Trump’s agenda thwarted even though he knows the means used to do so are illegitimate, and have the SCOTUS rule these nationwide TROs/Injunctions unconstitutional once and for all.
Roberts and Amy created this insanity by the way they voted!!!! They rather play politics then being a judge and follow the constitution.
We need the District courts.
We do NOT need imperious “judges” {usually with dual
passports, and from other countries} trying to
‘take down’ the elected President. That is treason.
America has had ENOUGH1!!!
Mississippi v. Johnson 1867
Decision: Ruled in favor of President Andrew Johnson by finding that the Constitution’s separation of powers prevents the Court from stopping the President in carrying out his executive duties.
This has been decided. I think our current Supreme Court needs to re-affirm. And if they choose not to, THEN you have a Constitutional Crisis.
Deep State lost the WH.
But it still has control of the Congress, the judiciary, the bureaucracy, and possibly still the SCOTUS.
Be prepared for a long haul, folks, because Deep State is dug in.
Rooting them out is going to take a while.
Malta runs SCOTUS.
That is what stole the election
AND imposed ObamaCARE (pedophilia) -
by transferring children of others in all directions.
> These loony judges need to be impeached. <
That’s a very difficult task. And those judges know it - in the entire history of the country, only eight federal judges have been impeached and removed from office.
I’d advise Trump to simply ignore these “orders”. To do otherwise would paralyze the executive branch. Because you can be sure some Obama/Biden judge will try to block every last move Trump makes.
So carry on normally, and let the Supreme Court eventually sort things out.
Do we have 677 unelected Presidents- NO
My thought is that we have 677 Seditionists that need dealt with accordingly.
Word is CJ Roberts has no intention of stopping to all this and Trump needs to force the SCOTUS’s hand.
“They are TOO BIG FOR THEIR ROBES! IMPEACH!”
You let us know when you have enough Republicans who actually want to do anything.
“America has had ENOUGH1!!!”
We have! But what can we do? We The People actually have no power except at the ballot box, and that’s been compromised. We just continue to be sh!t on and are expected to like it.
“Roberts and Amy created this insanity by the way they voted!”
I put ACB in same category as AG Barbie. And Roberts ... he’s been a Bush League traitor forever.
