With Each Injunction, Courts Become An Unelected Ruling Class
Without a resolution to the ongoing constitutional crisis, the judiciary will effectively cement itself as America’s unelected ruling class.

America increasingly lives under a Judicial Oligarchy, where the district court system that functions below the Supreme Court has assumed power far beyond its intended limited role, subverting the executive and legislative branches to impose a policy agenda dictated not by elected representatives but by unelected judges.
According to a Fox News report, nationwide injunctions against President Trump’s first administration accounted for more than half of the total injunctions ordered against the federal government since 1963.
Worse still, President Trump’s second term has shockingly endured more federal court injunctions in his first 60 days than Joe Biden did during his four years in office and Barack Obama during his entire eight-year presidency.
This obstruction is far from what the framers intended.
It is becoming clear that when the ACLU for example keeps taking cases happening in Texas and files them in DC where they magically keep "randomly" selected with a certain judge (who has now "magically" picked up FOUR such cases) that it is ignoring the venue and finding the district judges who believe they get to stop the President.
The cost of ignoring the American people will be great. Checks and balances go BOTH ways.
As these two cases illustrate, the courts have increasingly shifted from their primary role as interpreters of the law to that of legislators. This has fundamentally eroded the separation of powers and transformed the judiciary from a neutral arbiter into a force for liberal activism.
This disturbing pattern of judicial overreach further undermines our already fragile representative democracy and exposes the oligarchy beneath. Instead of three co-equal branches of government, none superior to the other, we now have an unchecked judiciary that can override the executive and legislative branches whenever elected officials pursue policies that conflict with the ideological preferences of the liberal establishment.
All branches are equal and if interpretation is not execution or legislation. The courts must stay in their lane and know their role or it will be stripped back to the bare minimum of what they should within their branch.
If the deliberate legal obstruction of Trump’s presidency continues without significant pushback, either by winning legal appeals, impeaching partisan justices, eliminating some federal courts, openly defying court orders, or the Supreme Court granting the Trump administration’s request to narrow the scope of the district court injunctions, the judiciary will effectively cement itself as America’s unelected ruling class.
The courts have acted this way in the past. A good example was Dred Scott. Any court worrying about the legitimacy of the judiciary must remember that Congress can reconfigue these district courts and also remove and if necessary impeach judges. The President can simply do exactly what Joe Biden did and that is magically not move forward on matters like say... student loan collection. The President can also pardon anyone the court seeks to hold in contempt.
If the courts want to go to war as unelected ruling class and defenders of the deep state swamp, they'd better be prepared because they will need to realize they are one branch going against two and in the end they will lose. They won't just lose because these district judges with an agenda are wrong. They will lose because in the end the Congress and President can simply choose to reassign, pack, legislate past and pardon past the courts if they care to take it that far.
The hunters will again become the hunted if they can't figure it out.
