Rep. Tom McClintock has sparked quite a conversation about the alarming partisan bias festering within the judiciary system. According to his findings, a staggering 92 percent of the judges who valiantly stood in the way of President Trump’s ambitious first-term agenda were appointed by Democrats. This revelation has led many, including former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, to label these actions as nothing short of a “judicial coup d’état.” Yes, folks, it seems the Democrats may have turned the gavel side of justice into their own playground.
During a recent House Judiciary Committee hearing, McClintock laid down the facts, showcasing research from the Harvard Law Review that detailed this shocking statistic. Out of the 64 nationwide injunctions that popped up during Trump’s first term, a whopping 92 percent were handed down by judges donning the liberal badge. It raises a few eyebrows, doesn’t it? One would think that justice in the United States would come with a little less bias and a bit more fairness. But apparently, fairness is not on the radar of these judges.
Democrats Appointed 92% of Judges Blocking Trump Agenda: ‘Judicial Coup D’Etat’

Gingrich chimed in, noting that polling indicates a strong majority of Americans believe no single district judge should have the power to unilaterally issue a nationwide injunction. The timing couldn’t be better. To think that the fate of national policies could rest in the hands of one politically inclined judge feels more like a scene from a dystopian novel than reality. Gingrich hit the nail on the head when he pointed out that such overwhelming alignment in judicial decisions reeks of a planned effort to thwart the changes President Trump was determined to implement.
Among the various attempts to undermine Trump’s policies, Rep. Brandon Gill has taken action against Judge James Boasberg, who has sought to block the use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport members of violent gangs. Further demonstrating the troubling trend, four judges have banded together to prevent the end of birthright citizenship for U.S.-born children of illegal aliens, with two of these roadblocks being set up by judges handpicked by Democrats. One must wonder how many more hurdles the Trump administration will face, all courtesy of a judicial system that has turned a blind eye to its once-cherished impartiality.
Even some of Obama’s own judicial appointments are getting in on the action, with Judge Amy Berman Jackson trying to halt the elimination of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and Judge Matthew Kennelly making moves to obstruct changes to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion programs. There’s even a Biden-appointed judge who recently meddled with Trump’s plan to freeze federal grants to non-governmental organizations. It’s hard not to see a pattern here: a concerted effort to stop anything resembling the America First agenda. The question remains: how much longer will the American public stand for this blatant display of judicial overreach?
