Article III of our Constitution provides for the judicial branch, but it does not expressly provide the judiciary with any powers other than those it earns in the eyes of the other two branches. It cannot self-enforce its decrees. Article I creates the Congress, and the legislative branch has both the power of the purse and the power to impeach to check the judiciary. Article II establishes the presidency, but the Constitution does not specify its checks and balances over the court.
That power is implied, and the implied power is for the executive – who runs the machinery of the federal government, including the cogs and gears that carry guns – to simply say “No” to an out-of-control judiciary. This implied power of defiance is as much a check and balance as any enumerated one, and without it, you would have an unchecked judiciary with hundreds of district court judges presuming to micromanage the legitimate actions of the executive branch.
Judge Roberts’s problem is that he wants to return to something like regular order in the judiciary. What we have is highly irregular order.
John Roberts wants the normal appellate procedures to apply. ...
This was the main takeaway from his unbelievably tone-deaf response to Trump’s, Musk’s, and others’ frustration-driven talk about impeachment.
In normal times, the response to a judge over one dumb decision is the appellate process. But these are not normal times. ... And the answer here is not the appellate process because the appellate process is long, drawn out, and deliberate. The goal of this campaign is to use that delay to effectively strip Donald Trump of the ability to govern.

“It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the (revolutionary) Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers-out of unorthodoxy…”
–George Orwell, 1984
Christian Britain has been gone a long time. But the Crown finally held a funeral, bestowing King Charles, earlier "The Defender of the Faith," a new royal title: “Protector of the Space for Faith within the Multi-faith Nation.”
A world-historical societal transformation is taking place before our very eyes, and yet few have taken notice. Britain, the erstwhile leader of the Western world and the foundation and source of English-speaking civilization, is in its last days as a free society, and will soon become an Islamic state. Yet despite the mountains of evidence that this transformation is taking place, many will still deny that it is happening at all. They may not even admit it when it overtakes them personally.
“I thought being on the left was a mental problem. The empirical evidence is so overwhelming that it never worked anywhere, and they refused to accept it. But what I discovered is that being on the left is a disease of the soul. The left is built on envy, hatred, resentment, and unequal treatment under the law. They are very violent, and since they have no way or arguments to answer, they go for physical violence.”
Argentinian President Javier Milei
