Federal judges across America have turned into activist legislators in black robes, and it's time Congress uses its constitutional authority to bring these judicial tyrants to heel.
A new analysis from The Federalist highlights how Congress has the power—but lacks the will—to discipline federal judges who brazenly overstep their constitutional boundaries. While President Trump's second-term agenda moves forward at lightning speed, activist judges appointed by Obama and Biden are already plotting to derail America First policies through bogus nationwide injunctions and creative legal interpretations.
The problem isn't new. For decades, federal judges have acted like unelected super-legislators, inventing constitutional rights out of thin air while ignoring the clear text of laws passed by elected representatives. But under the Biden regime, judicial activism reached new heights as Trump-appointed judges were smeared while left-wing judges rubber-stamped every unconstitutional mandate that came down the pike.
Constitutional Tools Going Unused
Here's what most Americans don't know: Congress has significant power over federal judges beyond just impeachment. The Constitution grants Congress authority to regulate judicial conduct, set disciplinary standards, and even restructure courts. Current federal statutes governing judicial discipline are toothless by design, created by the same swamp creatures who benefit from an out-of-control judiciary.
"It is time for Congress to rethink its federal statutes that govern the discipline of judges," the analysis states. Translation: Stop letting these robed activists run wild while hardworking Americans suffer the consequences of their judicial legislation.
Consider how federal judges have blocked common-sense immigration enforcement, struck down election integrity measures, and invented new constitutional rights that our Founders never imagined. Meanwhile, the judicial discipline system operates like a country club—judges investigating judges with predictably lenient results.
Time for Congressional Action
With Republicans controlling Congress, there's finally an opportunity to restore constitutional order to our federal courts. This isn't about partisan politics—it's about returning judges to their proper constitutional role of interpreting law, not making it.
The question isn't whether Congress has the power to rein in rogue judges. The question is whether our elected representatives have the courage to use it. Patriots are watching, and we'll remember who stands with judicial accountability versus who protects the swamp.
