Another day, another judicial blockade. Three more executive orders—each designed to advance the will of the American people—were unceremoniously put on ice by unelected black-robed obstructionists yesterday. That brings the total to 15 since President Trump took office in January 2025. That’s 15 direct assaults on the policies Americans voted for when they rejected the corruption and incompetence of the radical left.
Let’s be clear: This isn’t about “the law,” “checks and balances,” or “democracy” (a term the left constantly redefines). This is about deep-state operatives and activist judges blocking reform, hamstringing the administration’s efforts to clean up the mess left behind by Biden’s regime. The same establishment class that spent four years ignoring open borders, skyrocketing inflation, and a weaponized FBI now insists that every procedural technicality be followed before President Trump can act.
Consider what was just blocked. Among the three executive orders frozen yesterday was one expediting the deportation of violent criminal aliens, another targeting the corruption that allows bureaucrats to profit from their positions, and a third cracking down on federal grants abused by activist organizations masquerading as nonprofits.
Let me repeat that: judges intervened to stop the removal of dangerous criminals, protect corrupt bureaucrats, and ensure taxpayer money keeps flowing to left-wing political groups.
Someone, somewhere, please explain to me what law requires America to fund its own destruction. I’ll wait.
Of course, there is no such law. What we’re seeing is a coordinated legal resistance—engineered by well-funded leftist legal outfits, cheered on by corporate media, and rubber-stamped by judges who treat the Constitution as a Choose Your Own Adventure novel. The game is “Lawfare,” an endless stream of lawsuits designed to bog down the administration, tie up policies in court, and hope Trump runs out of time.
The pattern is unmistakable. The first round of blocks targeted Trump’s border security orders—because apparently, enforcing immigration laws is radical. Then came economic reforms meant to rein in the unelected bureaucracy—blocked. Now, it’s anti-corruption measures. What’s next? Will a judge rule that Trump breathing unapproved air is unconstitutional?
What makes this even more infuriating is the hypocrisy. Biden issued 117 executive orders in his first year alone, many of which reshaped policy overnight—no pushback. When he unilaterally extended the eviction moratorium, despite the Supreme Court ruling it unconstitutional, the CDC did it anyway—no lawsuits, no injunctions. When he ordered OSHA to impose a vaccine mandate on private businesses, blatantly exceeding executive authority, the courts took months to respond—by then, the damage was done.
But the second Trump lifts his pen? Emergency lawsuits! Nationwide injunctions! Indignant CNN panels! The entire system is wired to protect the left’s interests while kneecapping anyone who challenges them.
So, who wins when judges override the duly elected president? The usual suspects. Open-borders cartels, government grifters, climate racketeers, and Washington bureaucrats who treat elections as suggestions. These are the people desperate to stop Trump’s America First agenda.
Trump already faces a hostile media, a corrupt DOJ, and a rabid opposition. Now, unelected judges have decided that the voters’ will is subject to their personal whims. The left couldn’t stop Trump at the ballot box, so now they’re trying to stop him in the courts.
Here’s the bottom line: if this continues, the presidency will cease to function. We will enter an era where only Democrat presidents get to govern, while Republican presidents are treated as placeholders under legal supervision. Elections will become meaningless. Activist courts will veto the will of the people, ensuring permanent rule by lawsuit.
That is the endgame. If they can paralyze Trump, they can paralyze any future Republican. If they can stall every executive action with endless legal challenges, no conservative reform will ever see the light of day. The left isn’t trying to “uphold the rule of law.” They are weaponizing the legal system to nullify elections they don’t like.
So, what do we do? First, Republicans in Congress must fight back. They control the House and have leverage in the Senate—use it. Stop funding corrupt agencies waging war on this administration. Demand accountability from judges who repeatedly overstep their authority. Treat this legal warfare as the existential threat it is.
Second, we need to fix the courts. The next Supreme Court vacancy must go to a warrior, not a compromiser. Lower courts must be purged of ideological activists who see themselves as policymakers. The left spent decades infiltrating the judiciary, and now we are reaping the consequences. If we don’t take judicial appointments seriously, we might as well surrender now.
Finally, the American people need to wake up. This is not just a legal battle. It is a fight over whether the people we elect actually get to govern. If unelected judges systematically dismantle the America First agenda, our votes will become meaningless.
The courts have become the last line of defense for the corrupt status quo. If we don’t fight back now, they will bury Trump’s reforms in legal quicksand and ensure no outsider ever challenges their grip on power again.
The question is simple: Who runs this country—the voters, or the judges? If we don’t settle that now, we may not get another chance.
Americas worst Enemies the United Nations the NEA and Rogue Judges as well as the ICC which was Clinton(Bills)last act of Treason before he left office signing America into the ICC
Ultimately Congress can get rid of the corrupted districts where these Obama appointed judges hide in plain sight, mainly the Manhattan and D.C. districts. One corrupt attorney already quit….Matthew Graves, the guy who made handing out unGodly long sentences to innocent J6ers into sport. Yeah I know, prosecutors don’t hand out sentences. But his butt buddy Boasberg did.
If the Supreme Court doesn’t act, who will? Then again, the Supreme Court might take action, but who says the judicial tyranny will cease and desist? Unlikely that it will. This is the Democrats’ parade of refusing to give up power.. American remains under threat from the (undemocratic) 2024 election losers.
For several decades, I’ve been convinced that should this country descend into civil war, the Judiciary will be the flashpoint.
Check out the Federalist for last March 25. Of the fifteen judges in the D.C. District Court, five were born outside the U.S.; none had any judicial experience prior to being nominated.These include Judge Tanya Chutkan (born in Jamaica), Judge Amit P. Mehta (India) Judge Ana Cecilia Reyes, (Uruguay also LGBTQ), Judge Amir Hatem Mahdy Ali (Canada/Egyptian parents), Judge Sparkle Sooknanan (Trinidad and Tobago). All were appointed by Obama or Biden. There are other more experienced judges on the D.C. circuit, but these five plus Judge Boasberg (a native Washingtonian) have covered more than their fair share of the TROs issued against the Trump administration. The assignments are supposed to be random, but clearly are not.
It may be (or not) that Chief Justice Roberts will step up to the plate and do his constitutional duty. But if not, Congress has its own role to play. No district court (or “lesser court” below the Supreme Court) has any mandate except that of Congress itself. Congress can and should dissolve the D.C. District Court and leave all of its judges unemployed. No impeachment necessary.
Chief Justice Roberts step up? It is to laugh. Roberts must choose between social acceptance in the DC bubble or exposure of his peccadilloes. He has amply shown before how he will choose.
I agree. Justice Roberts has shown his true colors recently. I suspect that he has been on the take from some of the NGO dollars that the left is using to undermine due process and impartiality. When the left was stalking and attacking Alito, Thomas and Kavanaugh threats against Roberts were conspicuously absent. It seems that the extreme left knows something about Roberts that the public doesn’t.
As has been stated on many other conservative sites, Trump eventually will need to tell these hacks in black to pound sand. They are creating a constitutional crises, so give them their wish. Ignore them, “Alright, you’ve ruled. How do you intend to enforce it? How many divisions do you have?” And Roberts need to find his spine and reign in these “wannabe” presidents.
The Executive is not restrained by inferior courts, but by the threat of losing control in Congress, where acting in defiance of the unconstitutional judgments of these patently political judges would lead to impeachment, and possibly conviction, of the President were the Evil Party to win enough seats from the Stupid Party to control the outcome. Plainly the DC Circuit and its fellow travelers across our land have no authority to enjoin the Chief Executive from exercising his lawful authority on behalf of plaintiffs with no standing in matters over which the courts have no purview. But the Stupid Party is led by hirelings who kowtow to lobbyists for big corporations and have no sense of responsibility to the voters who put them in Congress.
So, here we are in the comments section, with all the “smart” people showering us with their amazing knowledge and infinite wisdom.
How many will write to their rep’s and senators? I wonder. It’s much more fun to come here and impress themselves with their cleverness and show readers what great abilities they have.
American’s are not motivated enough to do anything more substantial than typing out what they hope will impress someone they will never meet. Anything more is just too much work, isn’t it?!
Wake up, America, the game is over, the work needs to start now. Go to your rep and senators websites and tell them what you want. Otherwise you face a bleak future.
