Agree 100% but doubt he’ll do what needs to be done. He’s been entirely too deferential to them and it only encouraged the courts to be even more aggressive.

Yeah...I can see why they were all very happy with a vacant in the head FJB and the autopen.

Perhaps we should follow the example of El Salvador and clean the judicial branch first.

Gosh, aren’t those Dem judges something else?
More powerful than the President, House and Senate.
Kiss their ring, feed them bribe money and favors and hope they will help you.

This has to stop.

1) Ha, ha, those Trump guys are such weaklings and patsies, just meekly following the laws we interpret for them, we judges rule them like they were newbies in prison cells with us.

or

2) Those horrible Trump guys are out of control, disobeying all local judges’ orders, suspending habeas corpus, forcing illegals and featherbedding federal employees to obey the law. A threat to democracy.

((I really, hate can’t stand to hear the leftists repeat “democracy.” Almost enough to make prison time worth it for me. If I got caught. (Kidding.) ))

Dick The Butcher, in Henry VI, got it wrong.

First the judges.... THEN you can start on the Lawyers.

Let's vacate the “panel of judges on the U.S. Court of International Trade”.

I vote for that. President Trump needs to do what his hero Sndrew Jackson would do.

wait, so FJB was able to unilaterally impose draconian sanctions on Russia but Trump can’t impose any tariffs? So does that mean all the sanctions on Russia are immediately vacated?

So, the American people have no say in anything now? Not even through the election process? We’re now ruled by shadowy democrat tyrants in black robes?

I think there’s going to be an adjustment coming to this arrangement soon.

I knew Judges Katzmann and Reif would rule against Trump. Judge Restani was more of a surprise.

A tariff is an international affair, not a tax withing U.S. borders or upon the citizens. (Although the foreign countries just raise the price they charge wholesalers in the U.S. which gets passed along to the citizens)

Article II is completely on the Executive side in this. Federal courts have zero jurisdiction in decisions concerning international relations.

Congress must act to approve or not when a treaty is with a foreign nation, but a tariff is not a treaty.

Nowhere in the Constitution or any federal law does any federal judicial have any say or jurisdiction in tariffs arranged upon foreign nations.

Wow, how about that, the Fed. Cir. gets to hear something besides a patent appeal. Luckily, the Chief Judge if the Fed Cir is very Conservative.

Over time, as Congress gave the president expanded powers on its behalf to enact tariff policies, opponents to several tariffs laws argued the statutes were an unconstitutional congressional delegation of authority to the president. Known as the non-delegation doctrine, the question of how much of its authority Congress can grant to the president and the judiciary goes back to the time of Chief Justice John Marshall.

See you in the Supreme Court.

RE: If we learn but a single lesson from all this, the need to rein in the Judiciary should be it.

True.

Remember a few years ago the Dems were demanding a packed larger Supreme Court and diminishing the powers of the other federal judges appointed by GOP presidents.


April 14, 2021
Democrats to introduce bill to expand Supreme Court from 9 to 13 justices. President Joe Biden announced the formation of a commission last week ...

So actually, Dems and we agree on hating the abuses of the men and women in black robes.
