In the weeks since President Trump took office, federal judges have arrogated to themselves the authority to control how the government spends money, whether the government can issue orders to government personnel and even the content displayed on government websites...
A president with no initiative or independent thinking is a mere administrator, not a leader. If his decisions follow precedent, law and existing policy alone, he ceases to represent the people. By contrast, a judge who follows his gut instincts, thinks independently and advocates for causes is a tyrant...

Bump.
Agreed 100% with the crappy/short excerpt. Bookmarking in browser just in case.
Spicer v US is interesting precedent and should help with the recent court ruling stopping Trump and administration from firing federal employees.

As far as the firings are concerned, if a court said the president can’t fire someone, then who actually could? Certainly not Congress or a court. As far as requiring a with cause provision, exactly what is that? As long as the reason isn’t openly discriminatory, it’s typically a moot point because realistically it’s not that hard to do a performance review and find irregularities, incompetence, insubordination, violations etc.
These judges act like unless a precedent has been set, there is no case.
How were precedents set in the first place? Have they all been set, or is it remotely possible something new may arise? I have had a bellyful of arrogant leftist activist judges.
They believe law is a living breathing thing and as such, precedent doesn’t matter, just their interpretation of the law which by definition is hubris.
Did you hear Sean Spicer talk about how that case became law? Interesting that Stephen Miller was playing hardball in 2021 in order to set it up. He talked with Glenn Beck about the back story and the result of establishing that a President has the Article II authority the founders intended.
It was interesting that SS was fired from the Board overseeing the Kennedy Center and was fired by Biden with only 60 days left in his term.

That is a great interview. And Biden will be cited as evidence that Trump can fire at will.
I read the article 2 days ago, and a few paragraphs in, I was so impressed I scrolled up to check on who wrote it. Saw Greenfield and thought, well of course!
These left radical rat appointed judges have been put in place deliberately to interfere with trump and his administration
Just a visit by DOGE should clean this up real quick
Audit all judges, bet they have money trails miles long
Oh and check their freezers😎
Leftist judges could not care less about the Constitution, laws, precedents or anything else except...
The revolution.
“The issue is not the issue. The revolution is the issue.”
“Conversely, federal judges can control any and all of these things at their whim and will. And that means that they control everything and that actual elected officials control nothing at all.“
Trump wanted the job . Trump got the job. This situation demands that he LEAD. He MUST stand up to these judges at some point even if it means real trouble. He’s the president and it’s up to him, at last, to defend the constitutional powers afforded the office.

I agree, and in fact, if he compliantly goes with procedure and appeals to the SC, they are likely to split the baby and leave him hobbled — him, and every POTUS after him.
Roberts is too inclined to compromise.
Nor is there much of a pool these days, of Thomas-caliber judges to appoint to the SC, that is, if a president can still do THAT without getting sued. :(
We’re stuck with a squishy court. I don’t trust 8 of them. They just said last year that a president has broad immunity in the course of his duties, all they have to do now is limit his duties to pardoning bleeping turkeys.
The Constitutional remedy to bad behavior from a POTUS is impeachment. I say do what you gotta do, Mr. President, and let them impeach you again for all the good it does them. But don’t give the SC any fresh opportunities to cripple the Executive.
Agree 100%
I say leave it up, there’s good replies and links in the thread.
Nevermind "precedent". Precedent can be brought to you by the same people who think that the Constitution is a "living breathing thing".
It's the plain words in the Constitution that matters. If precedent contradicts that, then it's wrong.
“These left radical rat appointed judges have been put in place deliberately”
Not one of these hacks has been struck down by a higher court yet. Not even the POS that told the President he has to put the tranny BS back on Government web sites.
So far, all that the Pop-Up Judges have done, is stop Trump’s various actions.
The next logical step is to force Trump to perform NEW actions.
I expect them to require President Trump hand over all nuclear material and nuclear secrets to Iran, next.
