===============================<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Washington Examiner<\/strong>, Editorial — May 25, 2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Excerpt:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Federal district judges aren’t emperors for the whole United States. Congress and the Supreme Court should both remind them of that reality.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By issuing putatively national injunctions, <\/em>Attorney General William Barr said<\/em><\/a> in a May 21 speech to the American Law Institute: \u201cOne judge can, in effect, cancel the policy with the stroke of the pen. No official in the United States government [rightly] can exercise that kind of nationwide power, with the sole exception of the president. And the Constitution subjects him to nationwide election, among other constitutional checks, as a prerequisite to wielding that power.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The subject arises because, on issue after issue, liberal district judges have blocked President Trump\u2019s executive orders or rules promulgated by his administration. The most prominent example occurred when Trump ordered an end to the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals immigration program. Even though <\/em>DACA<\/em><\/a> was created out of thin air by an executive memorandum by President Barack Obama, three separate district judges <\/em>ruled<\/em><\/a> that Trump could not undo it using the same presidential power. All three said their orders apply nationwide.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
