Speaker Mike Johnson floats eliminating federal courts as GOP ramps up attacks on judges

Republican lawmakers are setting their sights on the judiciary following court rulings that have halted Trump's agenda.

Facing pressure from his right flank to take on judges who have ruled against President Donald Trump, Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., on Tuesday floated the possibility of Congress eliminating some federal courts.

It’s the latest attack from Republicans on the federal judiciary, as courts have blocked a series of actions taken by the Trump administration. In addition to funding threats, Trump and his conservative allies have called for the impeachment of certain federal judges who have ruled against him, most notably U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, who attempted to halt Trump from using the Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelan migrants.

“We do have the authority over the federal courts, as you know. We can eliminate an entire district court. We have power of funding over the courts and all these other things,” Johnson told reporters on Tuesday. “But desperate times call for desperate measures, and Congress is going to act.”

How can our Emperor, the FelonKing Donnie impose his will over the people of America if these judges keep trying to interfere?

They can't say their version of "let them eat cake" fast enough.

“Desperate times”? WTF is Johnson going on about? Every single current crisis was fabricated by the Trump administration and his own party. If Johnson wants the pig to stop squealing, he should stop fucking the pig.

They really want a Christo-fascist Monarchy. Amazing to watch Americans cheer and vote for their own enslavement. The country is over. Only matter of time before Courts and Congress are deleted. We will be under a 80 year old rapist felon who paints his face orange and mumbles about the Great Lakes being interconnected.

Make polio and the Black Death great again

LOL, I wonder how many MAGA Americans even realize how many of their fellow countrymen are, right now, applying for citizenship abroad or renewing foreign passports they haven’t used in decades. Many of my friends are applying for Irish and Italian citizenship, leveraging Commonwealth right of abode or using parental birth to apply for citizenship/permanent residency elsewhere (i.e. Indian OCI, Chile, Argentina etc.)

This is happening—there’s a reason why Italy is now looking to tighten up the rules with so many Americans applying. This isn’t just billionaires buying land and building bunkers in Australia and New Zealand. Now it’s everyday Americans with means who are making plans to abandon ship. I renewed my Canadian passport and now I’m working on my wife and kids.

Undoing the court system might just be the impetus people need to leave.

Some countries are already considering making Americans apply for temporary visas before they are allowed to visit.
