The rogue judge problem

 American Action News:

Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich appeared on Fox Business Tuesday to share his concerns about the power wielded by district judges in the United States.

District judges have increasingly used nationwide injunctions to halt the implementation of President Donald Trump’s policies across the entire United States. During an appearance on “Kudlow,” Gingrich warned at the current state of affairs where, in his view, 700 district judges act as if they have presidential powers, meddling in detailed aspects of the presidency and threatening the governance of the country.

“You can’t have 700 district judges pretending that they’re president. You can’t have judges who decide that every single detail of the presidency is somehow open to them to screw it up. It makes it impossible for the United States to survive as a country,” Gingrich said.

Gingrich said that the Founding Fathers’ concerns about judicial supremacy reflects today’s concerns about overreaching judges.

Some judges have become a threat to US national security because of their rulings requiring the US to host criminal aliens in US jails and prisons rather than deporting them as the Trump administration has been doing.  Deportation makes the US safer.
