Looks like he's laying the groundwork for the Executive Branch to ignore nationwide injunctions outside the ruling court's district.

That idiot judge from Hawaii will no longer be allowed to overstep his authority, halt Trump's executive orders, and rely on the media for protection.

He is laying groundwork in multiple hostile courts. Cite the same case law and let judges do illegal rulings. Elevate case to supreme court and cite the multiple cases.
Supreme court then slaps all lower courts to take away their nationwide injunction authority.

would a lawyer/legally-minded individual please ELI5 for non-legal-minded?

Essentially it looks like they're beginning the steps necessary to fix cases like the Travel Ban, where an executive order, clearly within the President's powers, was held up nation-wide by a decision from a single judge in Hawaii.

I'm not a lawyer but it looks like the executive branch and justice department may start to ignore nationwide injunctions, since federal activist judges have abused them numerous times. Using nationwide injunctions to block Trump's travel ban was probably the most egregious example of federal judges going beyond the limitations of their jurisdiction.

This is a SESSIONS BOOOOOMMM!!!

In releasing the litigation guidelines, Attorney General Sessions provided the following statement:

“Increasingly, we are seeing individual federal district judges go beyond the parties before the court to give injunctions or orders that block the entire federal government from enforcing a law or policy throughout the country. This kind of judicial activism did not happen a single time in our first 175 years as a nation, but it has become common in recent years. It has happened to the Trump administration 25 times in less than two years. This trend must stop. We have a government to run. The Constitution does not grant to a single district judge the power to veto executive branch actions with respect to parties not before the court. Nor does it provide the judiciary with authority to conduct oversight of or review policy of the executive branch. These abuses of judicial power are contrary to law, and with these new guidelines, this Department is going to continue to fight them.”

In a recent speech to the Eight Circuit Judicial Conference, the Attorney General stressed that the use of nationwide injunctions threatens the rule of law. The Attorney General also emphasized how nationwide injunctions are a danger to our constitutional order in a March op-ed (link is external). The litigation guidelines published today will strengthen the Department’s efforts to help restore order, boundaries, and common sense to the U.S. judicial system.

This. This. And more of This.

so, does a memorandum have any sort of power affiliated with it? Isn't it just guidelines on how to proceed if a douche hawaii judge blocks an order?

Prosecute those democrat activist judges who violate the law.

Bout time he does SOMETHING!

About time Sessions did something beneficial...

Still dont trust Him though..

Q has consistently said to "Trust Sessions"

Many of you on this forum wanted his head... Many.

Q is for REAL!

TRUST THE PLAN!

HOOAH!!!!


P.S. I'm just biding my time, waiting to bring the JFK Jr. thread out!

dude...there are 50 THOUSAND seal indictments.

he's done PLENTY.

it was all a smokescreen. Guy is the best AG we will ever have. Just have to have a little patience.

Lol it's hilarious watching so many get tossed back and forth between hatred and sycophancy for this sleazebag fuck.

Fuck Sessions, period.

A proper AG would've have already done this in stride.

Amen.

There were 10K sealed indictments, then 20 then 30 then 40 then 50. I don't believe it until I see it. Lot's of talk, time for action.

I am doubting the sealed indictment story. About as probable as Trump sealing the southern border (which he has full authority to do WITHOUT $25 billion from Congress).

Eva. Another Sessions BOOM! Can you start a thread on this? I don't make good threads.
