Rein Them In
We have leftist judges playing by one set of rules and conservative judges playing by another.
There are nearly 700 federal district court judges across the country. Barack Obama and Joe Biden held the White House for 12 of the last 16 years. They appointed 72% of the federal district court judges during that 16-year span.
These left-wing robed radicals are routinely using nationwide restraining orders against the president of the United States. For example, Obama only faced 12 nationwide injunctions during his 8 years in office. Biden faced 14 in four years.
But the first Trump term saw 64 judicial injunctions issued against his agenda. And the left’s lawfare against Trump’s second term is off to a blistering start. More than 120 lawsuits have been filed against the administration, and at least 15 nationwide injunctions were issued against Trump’s orders last month alone!
This is an obvious tactic by the left to cripple the Trump administration and prevent you from getting what you voted for. That’s what it is all about. Democrats and their radical allies are desperate to stop President Trump from doing what he was elected to do.
Consider this: Republican district court appointees, generally being conservatives, respect the constitutional limitations on their role as judges. As a result, they are not judicial activists looking to legislate from the bench and radically transform America.
But that’s exactly what leftist judges are doing. So, we have leftist judges playing by one set of rules and conservative judges playing by another.
The Supreme Court must rein in these robed radicals. They can do so by making it clear that unelected individual district court judges cannot overrule the president of the United States and impose their will on the entire nation. And God forbid that the ruling is anything other than 6-to-3.
