No, you can't sue a court

The OAFPOTUS's Roy Cohn-inspired habit of suing everyone who tells him to STFU came to its logical conclusion yesterday as US District Judge Thomas T Cullen (Va., Western) told him to STFU after his most egregious lawsuit yet:

A federal judge has forcefully rejected a highly unusual lawsuit the Trump administration filed against 15 other judges whom the Justice Department accused of hindering the president’s mass deportation agenda.

In tossing out the lawsuit, U.S. District Judge Thomas Cullen — a Trump appointee — lamented what he described as the White House’s months-long “smear” of the federal judiciary.

For months, Cullen wrote, top executive branch officials have attacked judges who rule against the administration as “‘left-wing,’ ‘liberal,’ ‘activists,’ ‘radical,’ ‘politically minded,’ ‘rogue,’ ‘unhinged,’ ‘outrageous, overzealous, [and] unconstitutional,’ ‘[c]rooked,’ and worse.”

“Although some tension between the coordinate branches of government is a hallmark of our constitutional system,” Cullen continued, “this concerted effort by the Executive to smear and impugn individual judges who rule against it is both unprecedented and unfortunate.”

“Whatever the merits of its grievance with the judges of the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, the Executive must find a proper way to raise those concerns,” Cullen wrote. “All of this isn’t to say that the Executive is without any recourse; far from it. If the Executive truly believes that Defendants’ standing orders violate the law, it should avail itself of the tried-and-true recourse available to all federal litigants: It should appeal.”

Seriously, I guffawed when I heard about the case last week. But this is what happens when stupid people with big and fragile egos get told they're being stupid: they double down on the stupidity. And this is why we can't have nice things right now.

Update: I also guffawed several times reading the Court's opinion. My god, the administration's lawyers are idiots. I am a better lawyer than some of them and I never even sat for the Bar.
