1. Combine that with Stephen Miller Suing Chief Justice Roberts to take control of the Judiciary's Management

My eyes are Wide Open here. This is nothing less than a complete Coup attempt.

The Judiciary is managed by the "AO" the Administrative Office in Washington DC, which is overseen by the US Judicial Conference (this is the Chief Judge of each Circuit). Judicial Policies and Directives to the Federal Judges and Court Staff are all administrated internally in this way.

Stephen Miller wants those to be managed by the Executive Branch. There is a big reason for this, which is in the Constitution, concerning the Separation of Powers.

So here we have the fascists attempting to take over both the Congress AND the Courts.

No Judges should even approve anything at all like this, and then we have the weak Lilly-Livered Republican Congress who should have freaking Impeached and Removed the Menace to the Country from office.

The saddest thing? Our Dumbed-Down Electorate wouldn't see anything at all wrong with this attempt to Destroy the Constitution and the Rule of Law that keeps this Country Free.

Idiots

All the people involved took this oath (Judges and Congress):

“I, _________, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”
