JD Vance delivers a fiery warning to rogue judges

Following the suggestion by Vice-President JD Vance that rogue judges have no jurisdiction over President Donald Trump’s “legitimate power,” a statement Elon Musk, the head of the Department of Government Efficiency agrees with, experts warn that the country may enter a “constitutional crisis” or a “breakdown of the system.”

“If a judge tried to tell a general how to conduct a military operation, that would be illegal,” Vance posted on X. “If a judge tried to command the attorney general in how to use her discretion as a prosecutor, that’s also illegal.

“Judges aren’t allowed to control the executive’s legitimate power.”

The remarks issued by the Vice-President came as a response to a judge’s decision to block members of the DOGE from accessing sensitive US Treasury Department systems, BBC reports.

Ever since taking office, Trump has signed a number of executive orders, a plethora of which right after his inauguration.

However, those orders have faced numerous legal challenges.

Jamal Greene, a professor at Columbia Law School, suggests that Vance’s post signals the government’s refusal to comply with court orders

“I think the tweet, taken on its own terms, is empty because it refers to the ‘legitimate powers’ of the executive. And the whole question in these cases is whether the executive is acting legitimately or not,” Greene told NBC News.

“He has some cover in that sense,” Greene added, referring to Vance. “He hasn’t promised unlawful behavior.” 

In the past, JD Vance argued that the president has the authority to directly oppose judicial decisions aimed at limiting White House power.

“When the courts stop you, stand before the country like [early US president] Andrew Jackson did and say: ‘The chief justice has made his ruling. Now let him enforce it,'” Vance said during a 2021 podcast. He added that a future Trump administration should sack “every single midlevel bureaucrat, every civil servant in the administrative state, replace them with our people,” BBC reported.

A number of senators and other politicians opposed Vance’s statement, reminding him that’s not how the law works.
