Trump Pushes Supreme Court to Limit Nationwide Injunctions Amid Judiciary Conflict

The president's calls for judicial impeachment and defiance of court orders escalate concerns over constitutional checks and balances.

President Donald Trump has requested the Supreme Court to prohibit federal judges from issuing nationwide injunctions, citing their impact on his administration's policies.
The administration defied a court order by deporting Venezuelan migrants under the Alien Enemies Act, prompting Judge James Boasberg to consider contempt proceedings.
Chief Justice John Roberts publicly rebuked Trump's calls for judicial impeachment, emphasizing the inappropriateness of impeachment as a response to judicial decisions.
Legal experts warn that the administration's actions, including its resistance to court orders, risk a constitutional crisis and undermine the judiciary's role in checks and balances.
The broader debate centers on the unprecedented use of the Alien Enemies Act and the balance between executive authority and judicial oversight in U.S. governance.
