(America Political Report)—Vice President J.D. Vance has recently intensified his criticism of the judiciary, asserting that federal judges are overstepping their authority by impeding President Trump’s executive actions. Following a federal court’s temporary injunction against the Department of Government Efficiency’s (DOGE) access to sensitive Treasury Department records, Vance contended that judges should not have the power to control legitimate executive functions.
“If a judge tried to tell a general how to conduct a military operation, that would be illegal,” Vance said in a post 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.”

This sentiment aligns with broader concerns within the Trump administration regarding judicial interference. Deputy White House Chief of Staff Stephen Miller labeled the recent court ruling as an undemocratic move by unelected bureaucrats, reflecting a growing frustration with legal challenges to the administration’s initiatives.
“These frivolous lawsuits are akin to children throwing pasta at the wall to see if it will stick. … This activist judge has resorted to locking the Senate-confirmed Secretary of Treasury out of his role. It’s absurd and judicial overreach,” White House spokesperson Harrison Fields said in a statement. ““Grandstanding government efficiency speaks volumes about those who’d rather delay much-needed change with legal shenanigans than work with the Trump Administration of ridding the government of waste, fraud, and abuse.”
The administration is currently navigating several legal obstacles, particularly in its efforts to restructure federal agencies and implement significant workforce reductions. Democrats have expressed alarm, likening the situation to a constitutional crisis reminiscent of Watergate. Senator Chris Murphy emphasized the necessity for public and congressional intervention to uphold the balance of power.
Despite these challenges, Republicans continue to back the president’s authority to execute his agenda, even in the face of judicial opposition. The tension between the executive branch and the judiciary underscores a pivotal debate over the separation of powers within the U.S. government.
