Members of the legislative branch are taking the baton from President Trump in his fights with federal judges and running with it. In the next few days, the Republican-led House is preparing a high-profile hearing, potentially with judges themselves, as well as legislation that could limit jurists’ ability to issue nationwide injunctions. 

Mr. Trump has been very vocal about his objections to district judges — most of them nominated by Democratic presidents — blocking key administration policies like his mass early retirement scheme, his mass deportation plans, and his mass cancellation of money being sent to federal contractors, some of whom had already completed work blessed by the government.
