Congress should pass a law redefining the power of District judges so they can no longer rule against EOs.
not happening judge.......
You illustrate why I resisted my mom’s pressure to go to law school.
I am certain that by now I would have absolutely SHATTERED the county record for contempt citations.
Judge Thomas mentioned this problem in a recent opinion.
The district judges just asserted this authority on their own and no one challenged it. Feckless congress.

And yet they do...........
President Jackson said, “Justice Marshal has made his ruling. Now let him enforce it.”
Okay, so I get it that the Media is Public Enemy #1. Now these stupid judges are rapidly becoming Public Enemy #2. Do I have this right? Geeze!
For those that don’t know; that rain water puddle in your yard is now subject to Federal regulation - do not attempt any actions not preapproved by the EPA or else face ruinous fines and penalties ... don’t even think of suing - the Federal government has more money than you do to pay the highest attorney fees until hell freezes or you are destitute - which ever comes first ...
These judges are way overstepping their authority.
Get Kavanaugh confirmed. Then have the Supreme Court once and for all strike down lower courts’ ability to issue nationwide injunctions on what are clearly political questions. This is a separation of powers issue. The Judiciary is overstepping its bounds and needs to be reined in. This started with the courts in the early 1960’s and has no constitutional foundation.
What is the judges justification for the decision?
ah!!!!!!....so GREAT to be King!

Me, too. But, he'll probably file an emergency appeal with a higher court staying the order. It will eventually be reversed.
At some point, the power of any district judge to completely impede policy is going to have to be faced directly, either in Congress or in the Supreme Court. I believe Clarence Thomas pointed out what a problem this is with a comment in an opinion he wrote. It's obviously a flaw in our system, at least as its been interpreted over the past century or so.
Don’t wait for President Trump (I never get tired of saying that) to do it all.
If we ALL ignore the ruling, it loses any legality it may have had.
Using Judges to bring back Obama’s Legacy ,LOL
Get the rope.
Seems possible.
The idea that one EO cannot flatly repudiate another is laughable.
I probably remember wrong but I think this allows the EPA to control the puddle in my backyard but doesn’t require them to do it in any specific way. So even with this ruling they could decide it’s ok for me to fill in the hole where the puddle happens when it rains.
The problems would be
* EPA “deep staters” WANT to control the puddle on my land
* Businesses can still bribe EPA officials to deny building permits to their competitors.
* Mueller can put someone in solitary confinement if he thinks they have something on Trump and he thinks they filled a hole in their backyard a few years ago.
