President Trump and his administration should ignore the lawfare efforts by the enemy within and do what they see as right for America. Do not let the scoundrels in black robes drive the Executive Branch train;

PLEASE HELP ME UNDERSTAND!

In my diligent study of the United States Constitution, I find no indication that the Judicial Branch of government has authority to inflict any control over the Executive Branch. What am I missing?

As I read the Constitution, the Judicial Branch can examine facts presented and express a legal opinion concerning the operation of the Executive Branch. I find no indication in the U.S. Constitution that such legal opinions have any binding effect on the Executive Branch. Am I missing something?

In the old days when all American politicians had virtue and honorably made efforts to support and defend the constitution and amicably worked to govern the nation, by tradition not by law, the Executive Branch honored the legal opinions of the federal courts. Do I have that right?

However, in 2026, there is a different paradigm in America. The federal court system has been severely corrupted by political bias. The enemies of America have taken the blindfold off Lady Justice, and the federal courts are now a biased political battleground. True honor, ethics, and justice have left the judicial building and lawfare has replaced justice. The federal court system has, for all intents and purposes, neutered itself, and is no longer functioning as stated in Article III of the United States Constitution. Where am I wrong?

"To consider judges as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions is a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy." ~ Thomas Jefferson 

When a President disagrees with a proposed law develop by the United States Congress, the President has the right to do what he sees as right and veto such law. The Congress then has a right to overturn that veto if they wish, and can garner the votes. 

By the United States Constitution, the President is under no obligation to follow the legal opinion that a federal court hands down, even the Supreme Court of the United States. The President has the authority to ignore any such opinions. If the United States Congress examines the opinion of the federal court and judges that the President is wrong when not implementing an opinion of the court, Congress has the power to turn such an opinion into law. That is the check and balance provided by the Constitution between the courts and the other two branches of government. 

In summary, I find that the federal courts have no constitutional authority to hinder the operation of the Executive Branch in any way, shape or form. In my layman’s humble opinion, President Trump and his administration should ignore the lawfare efforts by the enemy within and do what they see as right for America. Do not let the scoundrels in black robes drive the Executive Branch train.

After a 55 year career as a professional pilot in the military, in law enforcement, in the private sector, and in federal civil service, I am now retired.

In many of these positions I repeatedly took an oath to defend the United States Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.
