Judicial Restoration, or Checking and Balancing the Judiciary

In a previous article, I wrote about judicial restraint.

The federal judiciary is out of control. Their nationwide injunctions make a mockery of the rule of law, and they undermine our constitutional republic. The consistent allocation of key cases to any federal judge determined to thwart President Trump’s America First agenda is very disturbing.

Congress can and should take the following actions to resolve these problems:

Impeach and hold trials on the rogue judges undermining the Constitution

Cut the funding for judicial officers and courts that openly defy constitutional norms

Restrict the power of federal courts to issue nationwide injunctions or decide the merits of certain cases.

Require bonds for injunctions. The Wall Street Journal recently affirmed the utility of this reform to control out-of-control judges.
