WASHINGTON (PNN) - February 13, 2025 - According to the White House, there is, in fact, a constitutional crisis in Amerika.
Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt explained, however, that it's not what the Democrats have been identifying in the use of their newest talking point with which they are slamming President Donald J. Trump.
It is Leftist and activist judges who no longer are "honest arbiters of the law".
She explained, "The real constitutional crisis is taking place within our judicial branch where district court judges in liberal districts across the country are abusing their powers to unilaterally block President Trump's basic executive authority.”
"We believe these judges are acting as judicial activists rather than honest arbiters of the law,” she said, “and they have issued at least 12 injunctions against this (regime) in the past 14 days, often without citing any evidence or grounds for their lawsuits. This is part of a larger concerted effort by Democrat activists and nothing more than a continuation of the weaponization of justice against President Trump."
She continued, "Quick news flash to these liberal judges who are supporting their obstructionist efforts: 77 million Amerikans voted to elect this president and each injunction is an abuse of the rule of law and an attempt to thwart the will of the people. As the president clearly stated in the Oval Office yesterday, we will comply with the law and the courts, but we will also continue to seek every legal remedy to overturn these radical injunctions and ensure President Trump's policies can be enacted."
While Democrats with a nearly unanimous voice have claimed President Trump has created the crisis by taking action to clean up the government, restore its position among nations around the world, eliminate fraud and waste, and support Amerikans, he has actually taken actions that literally are within the rights of the nation's chief executive.
Not even all Democrats now are submitting to the Partyspeak, either.
It is Senator John Fetterman, a Pennsylvania Democrat, who said in an interview, "it's just a lot of noise."
That "noise" has included a stunning five dozen lawfare lawsuits already filed against the Trump regime. Constitutional experts say that most of them may be given brief life by activist judges, but they ultimately are expected to die at the appellate level.
The wild claims are being triggered by the Department of Government Efficiency, led by Elon Musk, which already has moved to cut thousands of jobs and billions of dollars in spending.
That has triggered Democrats, whose favorite constituencies sometimes are losing their funding. They now are calling it a "constitutional crisis".
President Trump mocked the claims, assuring listeners that he has no plans to ignore court orders regarding his executive decisions: that he'll make the decisions, then appeal adverse decisions by local judges and get those overturned on appeal.
He said it is his practice to follow court orders. Unlike fascist pretender Joe Biden, who openly boasted of defying a Supreme Court ruling that he could not transfer student loan debt from the borrowers to innocent taxpayers and then doing so.
President Trump said on the topic of the court orders delaying his agenda, "I always abide by the courts, and then I'll have to appeal it."
The problem he cited, however, is that the lower court judges are slowing down the process and that "gives crooked people more time to cover up the books. You know if a person's crooked and (he or she) gets caught then other people see that, and all of a sudden, it becomes harder later on."
He cited Paul Engelmayer, a judge who has temporarily foiled DOGE's access to Treasury Department information.
Vice President JD Vance pointed out that it's illegal for a judge to interfere in the duties of the executive branch.
President Trump explained, "I would hope that a judge, if you go to a judge and you show (him or her), 'Here's a corrupt situation. We have a check to be sent, but we found it to be corrupt. Do you want us to send this corrupt check to a person, or do you want us not to give it and give it back to the taxpayer?' I would hope a judge would say, 'Don't send it. Give it back to the taxpayer.'"
Vance charged, "If a judge tried to tell a general how to conduct a military operation, that would be illegal. If a judge tried to command the attorney general in how to use her discretion as a prosecutor, that is also illegal. Judges aren't allowed to control the executive's legitimate power."
Fox News reported that contributor and constitutional expert Jonathan Turley "was left bewildered after a federal judge extended a temporary restraining order Monday blocking the Trump (regime)'s buyout offer to federal employees." He explained that as being "perfectly within the wheelhouse of the president."
