Relief for Trump in Sight — If Supreme Court Special Session Reins in Rogue Judges
Nationwide injunctions have proven a disaster for the federal judiciary.
“What’s the difference between God and a federal judge?” goes the old joke. Answer: “God knows he’s not a federal judge.” The district judges issuing scores of “nationwide” injunctions against President Trump appear to take this gag with deadly seriousness.
Under this dubious practice, a single federal judge claims the ability to block a law or executive order not just in his or her city or state, but throughout the country. As Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch has wryly observed, they seem to think their power is not just nationwide, but “universal” or even “cosmic.”
But the Trump administration is looking to counter these judges’ overreach, without taking the politically and constitutionally extreme steps of impeachment or defying a court order.
