Well!Congress funds the Judiciary.Why don’t they send the Chief Justice a message by cutting his budget?

This crap has to stop somewhere.

Less talk(complaining)and more action would be beneficial to get the courts attention.

Congress can cut the budget for the Court as a whole, but it can;t cut the pay of the judges. Well, not within the Constitution, anyway.
The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behavior, and shall, at stated Times, receive for their Services a Compensation which shall not be diminished during their Continuance in Office.
Article III, section 1
