As legal challenges against his administration mount, President Trump has intensified his criticism of federal judges, advocating for limits on their ability to issue national injunctions. He characterizes these judges as 'radical left lunatics' and proposes legislation, such as Rep. Darrell Issa's No Rogue Rulings Act, to curb their power. This move signifies a broader Republican effort to fortify Trump's agenda against judicial opposition, especially as he faces setbacks in the courts related to immigration policies.
In particular, the president seems to have zeroed in on the idea of limiting federal district judges' ability to issue injunctions that have national implications.
Rep. Darrell Issa of Bonsall introduced the No Rogue Rulings Act, or NORRA, last month to limit federal judges' ability to issue nationwide injunctions.
Issa's legislation has gained traction among several prominent Republicans - including the president, who is determined to advance his anti-immigration agenda despite setbacks in the courts.
In Washington, where Republicans control the White House, Senate and House of Representatives, Issa's bill reflects a broader push by Republicans to clamp down on the judiciary.
