Newsmax host says the Trump administration should ignore all federal judges except the Supreme Court

Carl Higbie: “You got to tell all these judges, hey, guys, look, we're done. We're not listening to you at all anymore because 90 something percent of your stuff gets overturned by the Supreme Court anyway.”

CARL HIGBIE (HOST): Nope. Hard pass from the same people that keep telling us, by the way, that illegals are not getting these benefits that they said they wanted to give them, who scream and cry when Republicans try to cut off those benefits for those illegals or the states supporting them who in the same sentence swear are still not getting those benefits. 

...

HIGBIE: This is how you start solving the problem. I mean, like SNAP benefits — great place to start. And, you know, the 21 blue states who don't want to hand over their data and cooperate, fine. Trump, just cut off all federal funding for everything — roads, schools, health care, all of it. Democrats, oh, Donald Trump's cutting your school funding. No. Wrong Democrats. He stopped giving you money because you're rerouting that money to programs to support people who shouldn't be here.

But if Trump wants to get serious on this, he's going to have to just start doing stuff, OK? Like, get real aggressive. And this might be a tough pill to swallow for a bunch of washy establishment Republicans.

But you got to tell all these judges, hey, guys, look, we're done. We're not listening to you at all anymore because 90 something percent of your stuff gets overturned by the Supreme Court anyway. We're going to listen to the Supreme Court only and drive on, because they ruined it.

And Mr. President, humbly, here's my plan and it will work. But you got to get like all the consultants, all the white shoe law firms and the washy politicians, especially, get the bureaucrats out of the way.

Stay with me here, OK? If they get in the way, too, you got to, like, fire them, prosecute them. Look, I'm looking at you, Pam Bondi, OK? You really actually want to make this omelet? Let's break some eggs. One, the work system, E-Verify or something like that. Trump talked about this like 10 years ago.
