Senator John Kennedy is a national treasure—true story. There is just something very relatable about Kennedy, and he says the things we all wish we could or knew to say. This clip especially shows Kennedy talking about federal district courts and whether or not they can issue universal injunctions.
As Brit Hume points out, there is no authority BUT let's watch Kennedy spell it out.
This is worth watching, especially if you've wondered where federal district judges get their authority to issue universal injunctions. Hint: there is no such authority. They just do it. https://t.co/qkg1q7GuGp

Perfection.

And oh sure, Democrats can keep claiming Republicans have buyer's remorse, but we don't. As a whole, Trump is doing exactly what he said he would do during his campaign.

And these leftist, progressive, activist judges need to get TF out of the way.
