Recently, Activist Judges (I call them ššØš©-šš© šš®šš šš¬Ā©) have been hamstringing President Trump in nearly every effort he has taken to try to right the country. From interfering in ending Birthright Citizenship, to any Federal Funding Freezes, to Federal Employee Buyouts, to Access to Treasury Records...even trying to TURN PLANES OF DEPORTED GANG MEMBERS AROUND IN MIDAIR... there is nothing these people will not attempt to block.
Trumpās 2025 term shows an extraordinary rateā46+ judicial interventions in under two months, which dwarfs Bidenās 5 TROs in four years, Obamaās 20 in eight, and Trumpās own first-term 40 in four. There is a 45x higher rate than Bidenās for February alone.
Trumpās current term stands out for its immediate and intense judicial resistance, outpacing all predecessors in speed and scale, driven by controversial immigration and governance reforms. Earlier administrations, even recent ones, faced fewer and slower challenges, highlighting a unique moment in executive-judicial dynamics.
Solutions have been offered such as ignoring the orders or impeaching the judges, neither of which strikes me as a true solution.
But there is an action that DOES strike me as a solution: Jurisdiction stripping.
In United States law, jurisdiction-stripping (also called court-stripping or curtailment-of-jurisdiction) is the limiting or reducing of a court's jurisdiction by Congress through its constitutional authority to determine the jurisdiction of federal courts and to exclude or remove federal cases from state courts.
I'm unclear if this would require only the House or the House and Senate. If it is the latter, then this would not work either.
Discuss.
What we need is an appeal fast track.
First stop, triage. Does the case have legal legs, and does everyone have their facts in one box? If not, leave.
Second stop, circuit court first sniff, both sides have one hour to state their argument.
Third stop, circuit court all justices present. Grill time for everyone. One business day.
Fourth stop, Supremes, all justices present. Grill time for everyone. One business day.
Fifth stop, published ruling within ten business days.
All five stops completed in 30 days.
Sorry. No sale.
Again, strip court funding to handle specific types of cases under ābudget reconciliationā procedure. No Senate filibuster is permitted.
All orders that can be considered budgetary should be codified as statues via reconciliation bill.
All leftist judges should be impeached so that they can be investigated for questionable connections and financial dealings. If thereās anything, then Congress can refer to DOJ for civil and criminal charges.
There really isnāt any meaningful reform of judiciary without House and 60 votes in Senate. Canāt count on SCOTUS to police their own legal colleagues.

This circumstance would be particularly relevant in the current Boasberg deportation case and might explain the judge's wild behavior. Cartels can bring a great deal of pressure.
To limit judicial interference in executive actions, including immigration enforcement and agency cost-cutting, several possible responses exist. These range from constitutional actions like impeachment to legislative reforms and executive maneuvers. Here are some potential approaches:

Mayor Reportedly Beheaded Days After Taking Office in Mexico Amid Surge in Cartel Violence

At least 24 politicians were murdered during a particularly violent electoral process leading up to the June election that the key ruling party figure won by a landslide, according to official figures.
Good idea, assuming it’s damning.
Just send the file to them. Only the file, no notes or cover letter.
DEFUND THE COURTS!
The courts have been failing us for long enough. They act like they have blank checks. Whatever the cost or the cause, taxpayers are expected to pick it up.
Our courts have failed us. Consider the crime rate.
So many judges feeding their egos have become leeches on the American people. We need to seriously cut back on the funding.
I mentioned Original Jurisdiction about 15-20 years ago. The late (I think) FReeper Congressman BillyBob responded that the Supremes only take a handful of Original Jurisdiction cases per year.
From that, I infer that, as a group, they really don’t want to be bothered by doing their jobs.
Why don’t the Rep’s just get a Rep judge to nullify the libs order?
Article III Section 1, prohibits reducing the pay of judges. However, Congress has the authority to abolish part or all of the federal judiciary and create a new judiciary. Jefferson did it in 1802, and Lincoln did it for the DC District during the Civil War.
If the proposed legislation were introduced in the House, it could be assigned to the Judiciary Committee for hearings. The Judiciary Committee could then subpoena several of the most odious judges to testify in public about conflicts of interest, relatives' financial dealings, ex parte communications, and the like.
The judges could either appear and be grilled in public or refuse to appear and claim that, while they have authority over over the Presidency, no other branch of government has authority over them.

Tar and feathers
Exactly
Where’s Jim Jordan???
Realistically, the answer lies with the US Marshal service. They are the only ones that give the federal judiciary its teeth.
So you coax the head, their IG, and their lieutenants to state that the judges’ rulings are clearly unconstitutional on their face (by the Vestment clause of Art 2 Section 1), thereby they cannot and will not be enforced. Or, the US Marshals have to publicly admit they don’t know the plain language in the US Constitution.
That would trigger an emergency SCOTUS ruling to end this mess. Hopefully.
I like the way you think.
