“A legal group founded by White House aide Stephen Miller sued Chief Justice John Roberts in a brazen but unlikely attempt to seize control of the federal court system.
In the lawsuit filed last week, America First Legal (AFL) argued that the Judicial Conference of the U.S. and the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts — two key judicial branch bodies that frame policy and handle the basic functions of the federal courts — are executive branch agencies. “
another MAGA stupid lawsuit.
sitting around the table i can see it now.
these federal judges are blocking our agenda.
lets sue them in a quixotical attempt to make the judges under the POTUS.
It absolutely is an attempt to put the Judiciary under the control of the Executive Branch…by claiming Executive authority over the committees that operationalize the Judiciary.
People really really REALLY need to start taking crash courses on how things actually work…
What do these two organizations do and what is their impact on the judiciary?
The Judicial Conference is a policymaking body for the lower federal courts established by Congress to promote public confidence in the integrity and impartiality of the judiciary. The Administrative office handles the nuts and bolts of the federal judiciary, like budgets and organizing court data.
Miller is trying to put them under the Executive so Trump Inc can dictate a code of ethics on them.
