Activist Judges Are Pulling a Reverse Marbury v Madison

Jarrett Stepman: District court judges are increasingly abusing their position to thwart the president’s actions on a nationwide level.

The Left is having success in the courts, where activist federal judges have used and abused their position.

Universal injunctions are getting particularly out of control, he says.

These actions are delivering temporary “wins” for some judges, but are hardly boosting the power of the courts.

If they shut down the Trump administration for a short time while damaging the Judiciary, they may be fine with that if they think it will help them create enough chaos to crawl back into power.

If Chief Justice John Roberts really is the institutionalist he’s been portrayed as, he should be keenly interested in restoring order in the courts.
