Left-wing judges are trying to grind the Trump agenda to a halt by declaring war on the Constitution.

America is now facing a full-blown crisis thanks to these lawless activists.

And Donald Trump has one ace up his sleeve to defeat rogue Democrat judges.

Obama Judge James Boasberg declared himself the supreme authority in American foreign affairs by blocking President Trump from deporting terrorist illegal alien gang members using the 1798 Alien Enemies Act.

Boasberg was just the latest left-wing activist on the bench exercising their frustration over Trump winning the election by issuing orders claiming they – and not the American people’s duly elected President – had the authority to set national policy.

Trump and his supporters in Congress floated the idea of impeaching rogue judges.

Alan Dershowitz argued Congress had another path before it.

Article III of the Constitution only calls for a Supreme Court.

District and Appeals courts are creations of Congress and are not co-equal branches of government.

Congress can alter their jurisdiction or eliminate at their whim.

Dershowitz suggested Congress pass legislation limiting the ability of local District Court Judges from issuing nationwide injunctions to block executive orders.

“I think Congress can do more to facilitate the exit of these bad guys, and they should do more, and they can also do more to curtail the jurisdiction of courts. They can pass a statute saying a district court has jurisdiction only to grant an injunction that covers his district, to his circuit. Congress can make a definition, but you can’t have a judge in New York telling people in California what to do and, obviously, to use the example that was used by this administration,” Dershowitz stated.

Dershowitz also said Congress could just abolish these district courts.

“Congress clearly has the authority. It could abolish the district courts all over the country. It could say we don’t have any more district courts,” Dershowitz added.

The Constitution doesn’t call for District Courts, they exist only because Congress says so.

That could change, Dershowitz explained.

“Nothing in the Constitution about district courts. It just says that you know it can have, there can be other lower courts, but it doesn’t indicate how many there have to be and where the circuits are and how many court of appeals judges [or] district court judges. Those are all issues for Congress, and Congress can have greater input than they now do. So, there is no constitutional crisis, let’s be clear, but Congress can help avoid constitutional clashes by legislating on some of these issues,” Dershowitz concluded.

Democrats are always talking about eliminating the filibuster to pack the Supreme Court.

But in a world where Democrats triggered the nuclear option and eliminated the filibuster, Republicans could also use simple majority votes to eliminate district courts where left-wing partisans issue unlawful orders to block Republican Presidents.
