The Republican pushback is gaining traction in Washington and throughout Congress, with House Speaker Mike Johnson leading the legislative charge.
Johnson has come out forcefully in support of President Donald Trump’s recent executive actions, denouncing federal district court judges who have issued rulings blocking key elements of Trump’s agenda. Calling the rulings “a dangerous trend” and a violation of the Constitution’s separation of powers, Johnson is now pushing an unprecedented proposal: the closure of what he calls “leftist federal district courts” that are, in his words, “unconstitutionally attempting to block the will of the American people.”
During a heated press conference on Capitol Hill this morning, Johnson stood alongside Trump administration officials and Republican leaders, denouncing recent judicial rulings as "an activist overreach" and accusing certain courts of functioning as "ideological outposts for the far left."
“The American people elected President Trump with a clear and historic mandate,” Johnson declared. “When unelected district judges try to dismantle his executive actions with politically motivated injunctions, they are not defending the Constitution—they are undermining it. The result is not checks and balances. This is judicial tyranny.”
Speaker Johnson announced that House Republicans will soon introduce legislation to restructure the federal judiciary by eliminating or consolidating district courts that have, in Johnson’s view, repeatedly interfered with lawful executive actions. While the proposal’s constitutional basis is sure to face scrutiny, Johnson said Congress has “clear authority under Article III to establish and regulate the lower courts.”
The legislation, dubbed the ‘Judicial Decentralization and Accountability Act,’ would target specific federal jurisdictions that have issued repeated nationwide injunctions against Trump-era and Trump 2.0 policies, from immigration to federal deregulation to national security directives.
“We are not talking about judicial review. We’re talking about judicial sabotage,” Johnson said. “If rogue courts want to play politics, then Congress has a duty to rein them in.”
Legal scholars and political opponents wasted no time condemning the move. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer called Johnson’s remarks “an authoritarian threat to the independence of the judiciary,” while legal experts warned that eliminating courts based on their rulings could violate constitutional norms.
Democratic lawmakers are expected to mount fierce opposition to the bill, and even some moderate Republicans have signaled discomfort with what they view as an extreme approach. However, Johnson remained defiant, framing the move as part of a broader effort to restore constitutional order.
Trump Praises Johnson and said, “SPEAKER MIKE JOHNSON IS 100% RIGHT! These out-of-control Obama judges have been a disaster. We’re taking our country BACK! MAGA!!!”
The proposed legislation is expected to be introduced in the coming weeks, sparking what is likely to be one of the most contentious constitutional showdowns in decades. Legal challenges are inevitable, and any changes to the judiciary would also need to clear the Senate, where the Democrats will fight back and try to have the RINOs join in.
In the meantime, Speaker Johnson has clarified that he sees this as a defining battle.
“We cannot allow partisan judges to override the will of the people,” he said. “We will restore balance to our system. This is not just a legal fight—it’s a fight for the soul of the republic.”
Final Word: The fundamental question is whether Congress will secure sufficient votes to restructure the federal court system or if they will opt to remain cautious and allow radical judges to rule America once more.

Removing Justices, redistricting (removing and adding federal courts) refining the Constitutional JURISDICTION of the Courts are all Constitutional powers of Congress under Articles 1, 2, and 3.
Allowing unelected Judges to override the executive branch's long-established Constitutional powers is not only reckless... It's dangerous... and must end now!
Throwing the carefully crafted constitutional balance of power between the branches of government out the door... in the name of CAUTION... will end Constitutional government.
The leftist courts have been dangerously undermining Constitutional government for decades... It must now come to an end. The radical Justices removed and the inferior federal court's jurisdiction refined and harshly restricted... any judgments, orders, injunctions, etc. must apply ONLY to the case in law before the court.
The conduct of Justices must be reviewed regularly by Congress to ensure their behavior is good... and where it is not... they must be removed. Federal Judges must be open to removal by revocation of their Presidential COMMISSION as officers of the government...

Yes, impeach these leftist tyrants
Why Impeach .. one can have Pres. Trump revoke thier Federal Commission... ending their right to hold any office of the government.
Impeachment is often a waste of time... In 250 yrs only a hand full of justices have been removed by Impeachment.
upcfhuck schumer should be carged with TREASON for his outrageous behavior and statements!!!!!!!!! And he IS NOT the majority leader since Nov 5, 2024 when the gop took the senate majority!!!!! Sadly, most of the gop are establishment hacls owned by george soros!!!!!!!!!!
Those judges should be impeached, IMMEDIATELY!!!!! They are violating the Colnstitution by imterfering in designated responsibilities of the executive office!!!!! They should have stopped dementia from opening the border and letting these savages into the country!!!!!!!!!!
Would the Judge make that decision when George Washington was President. YIKES!
Demoncrats do NOT hold a majority in the Senate! Not sure where you got that line from.
Correct, the gop has the majority now, not that that is much of an improvement!!!!! The majority of the gop are establishment hacks owned by nazi george soros, including the 2 from my state of Oklahoma!!!!! mullin and lankford are a disgrace but too many people will vote for them without checking on what they stand for, which is the destruction of America and a global dictatorship!!!!!!!!!!
