White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has a message for activist judges trying to usurp the powers of the Executive Branch – run for president! This outburst comes as yet another federal judge thinks they’re the one running the country and was elected by the people.
Here’s more. (READ)
‘THEY CAN TRY AND RUN FOR PRESIDENT THEMSELVES!’: White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt just EXCORIATED the judge who today ordered the Trump admin re-hire thousands of federal employees.
Needless to say, they are appealing.
“A single judge is attempting to unconstitutionally seize the power of hiring and firing from the Executive Branch.”
“The President has the authority to exercise the power of the entire executive branch – singular district court judges cannot abuse the power of the entire judiciary to thwart the President’s agenda.”
“If a federal district court judge would like executive powers, they can try and run for President themselves. The Trump Administration will immediately fight back against this absurd and unconstitutional order.”

Many commenters are exhausted by Democrats judge-shopping to obstruct President Donald Trump’s agenda. They have a simple solution to these judge’s orders – ignore them.
Trump should ignore it until it’s ruled upon by the supreme court.

Exactly what precedent does this judge reference where he can tell the executive branch who they can hire and fire? This is absolutely bogus.

Why does he then. Why waste so much time with these judges that just want to mess up his plan. I just don’t get it!

He’s not listening to them. But the only way to set the precedent is to appeal it and have it tossed by a higher court.

Posters say it feels like we don’t have a president since Trump’s being hindered at every turn from exercising the will of the voters.
It sure is disturbing to know that who you vote for doesn’t matter. It only matters what judges have been appointed because they are apparently really in charge of the country.

This is exactly why activist judges are a threat to democracy. The Constitution is clear: the President controls the executive branch—not some Clinton-appointed bureaucrat in a robe.

The judges need to be susceptible to sanctions after they are struck down.
It’s an especially bad idea to bring recently fired and likely disgruntled employees back to the public sector.

That sounds like a good idea since besides embarrassment there are no real repercussions from their silly, unconstitutional rulings. It looks like Democrats are going to keep using judges since they can’t win elections.
