MAGA is frustrated with losing and is desperate. They should consider following the law and the constitution to stay out of court.

House Dems Tear Into Johnson’s ‘Outrageous’ Suggestion That Congress Could ‘Eliminate’ Some Fed Courts

House Democrats who spoke to TPM on Tuesday were stunned and floored by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) raising the possibility of Congress eliminating some federal courts as part of House Republicans’ ongoing interest in punishing judges who dare to rule against the Trump administration.

Lieu, also a member of the House Judiciary Committee, told TPM that the United States is a democracy because the judiciary is “the branch of the government that tells us when a law has been violated.”

“For Republicans to want to get rid of judicial district courts, it’s just completely outrageous,” he added. “It’s also not going to happen. It’s just stupid fantasies that they have.”
