À propos de cet audio

President Trump’s supporters have been frustrated with lawfare 2.0. Left-wing lawyers slowed his agenda by finding federal judges to impose nationwide injunctions against Trump’s executive orders.

That ended with the close of this term. Although the Supreme Court didn’t rule on the merits of the Trump order on birthright citizenship, Justice Amy Coney Barrett, writing for a 6-3 majority, ruled that injunctions should focus on relief only for the specific plaintiffs at hand.

The majority opinion also took aim at Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s dissent in unusually pointed language.

In the past, those on both sides of the aisle have hailed the use of nationwide injunctions. But their overuse in the Trump era has led to the Court’s timely reminder: just as America can’t have an imperial presidency, it cannot have an imperial judiciary, either.
