I am getting really tired of the judiciary feeling like they can set federal policy. I’m not sure how the system morphed so that any judge pretty much anywhere can make a ruling that affects the entire country.
The most egregious overreach has, of course, been in regards to deportations. But now a judge, who just got overruled on appeal regarding deportation of people to a third country if their home country refuses to take them, now has decided that he can set vaccine schedules in the US.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 1st Circuit ruled Monday that the Trump administration can continue to quickly deport migrants to third countries after U.S. District Judge Brian Murphy directed the administration last month to first try to remove migrants to the country they came from and allow them to contest the deportation if their home country is not available.
Murphy on Monday blocked the Trump administration from making a series of changes to vaccines, including a recent overhaul of the childhood vaccine schedule.
Obstructionist judges are acting like the true ‘kings’ of the country, overruling the will of the people and protecting the old status quo. At what point can they be removed from the bench? Can a litmus be put into place–if their ‘rulings’ are overturned a certain number of times, they’re out?
It’s got to stop.
