A federal judge issued a nationwide injunction Thursday against the Trump administration for delaying the Obama-era Waters of the United States rule, dealing a setback to a key piece of President Trump's deregulatory agenda.
The decision by the U.S. District Court in South Carolina means that the so-called Clean Water Rule is again operative in 26 states where district courts have not halted the regulation.
In addition to trump telling them to pound sand, he should also tell them to p!ss up a rope.
You should learn something about how federal judges are appointed. Then youd know that this is being addressed at a pace never equalled under any other administration.

Do educate me, then.
How many of these lower court would-be dictators have been impeached? How many of them have been ignored?
This is more of a technical ruling based upon procedural requirements by the E.P.A. known as the Administrative Procedures Act that requires a 30 Day waiting period before finalization. Sounds much like they can still do it if the new E.P.A. Administrator follows that rule but until then the Obama enhanced rules remain as they were. It will obviously give the LEFT ammunition to say that this Trump Administration is ‘lawless’ but otherwise it looks like this injunction will be temporary.
On the other hand there is a similar suit in New York State brought by 11 state AGs (all Democrats) for much the same thing. Differing decisions at different Federal Courts is an almost direct line to the US Supreme Court.
As fast as Trump is replacing bad eggs, we still need more MAGA judges.
Oh lets stop beating around the bush:
Federal judge orders Trump to reinstate Obama

I can’t see that, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they declared the 2016 election null and void because of “obvious” Russian tampering and therefore Hillary is really President and if President Trump and his supporters don’t like it, tough because we’re all deplorable racist troglodytes anyway.
Actually, it would be delightful if one of them did that just to see if SOMEONE on the side of good had the balls to actually stand up to them. The way things are going, I can see Congress saying: “Oh, well, sorry, Donald - you have to step down, then,” the media agreeing 99% (the 1% is Hannity) and Jeff Sessions recusing himself because he’s too busy at the ATM cashing his paycheck.
This horses ass judge should go keep company with Judge Crater.
The sky is the limit apparently. Federal Judge Rules (insert topic here). Foreign policy, taxation, what will be next? Federal Judges are out of control and need to be reigned in.
On another note, the concept of nationwide injunctions has been questioned by several members of the Court. I wonder wha Kavanaughs view on this is? Take this away from the lower courts and the ACLU is toast.
Federal judge rules Hillary Clinton won the 2016 election, orders Trump to turn over Presidency to true winner.

I wonder if this “judge” just might be an established LIB lunatic?
The magistrate class rears its head yet again.
It’s time to start dealing with these judges. Impeachment’s always an option but a length of stout rope is quicker.
To my knowledge district courts only threw out maybe two of Obamas steady stream of EOs
What I find incongruent is why are executive orders treated like legislative law?
Trump needs to say that one of these rulings violates separation of powers and that he will ignore it.
If the GOP makes gains in Congress, they should seriously consider a Judiciary Act of 2019 and reorganize the lower courts to rein them in.

Who the hell is this maggot to tell the President of the United States what to do? I never voted for this homo “judge”.
“CRAMER: HOUSE PASSES REPEAL OF OBAMA WATERS OF THE U.S. RULE”
“...now its on to the Senate where hopefully for once they can do the right thing and follow our lead.
That SOB is still alive and trying to destroy the Republic? That needs to change.
All comments have to be addressed which sometimes means revising the rule.
No doubt this is why Trump shortened it so as to prevent comments from being made.
You said “Congress” should...
Ha Ha Ha....
