- 🎯 Peter Navarro, a Trump economic advisor, appeared on Fox Business to criticize judges he deemed "rogue."
- ⚡ He was immediately reminded on air that one of the judges he criticized was appointed by Donald Trump himself.
The Judicial Panel and Tariffs
- ⚖️ This incident relates to a quickly reversed decision by a three-judge panel (a Trump appointee, a Reagan appointee, and a Bush appointee) that declared Trump's blanket tariffs illegal.
- 📌 An appeals court later stayed and reversed this decision until June 9th, but Navarro continued to label the judges as "rogue."
MAGA's Shifting Stance on Judges
- 🧠 The situation highlights a broader trend where any judicial decision not favored by the MAGA camp is labeled as corrupt or part of a deep state conspiracy.
- 🗣️ This is a stark contrast to previous sentiments of "we love Trump judges" and "these are the best people."
- ⚠️ Navarro's outburst demonstrates a perceived need for judges to follow a loyalty test rather than the law, especially when it comes to Trump's directives.
Authoritarianism Unraveling
- 📈 The speaker argues that this is a clear example of authoritarianism unraveling in real-time.
- 🔍 Lower court rulings against Trump, whether related to tariffs, executive overreach, or criminal exposure, are increasingly being met with accusations of a "deep state."
- 🎭 This hypocrisy and pathetic display are seen as a direct manifestation of an authoritarian slide, visible without needing to speed up the perception of movement.
