On May 14th, Congressman Matt Gaetz joined Steve Bannon on The War Room and didn’t hold back. In a fiery 20-minute segment, Gaetz took aim at activist judges, accusing them of staging a judicial coup to seize control of the federal government and strip President Trump of his constitutional authority.
Gaetz said:
“The one place the elitists have got us cornered out is the judiciary. We have been building our populist movement. We’ve got populist energy in the Congress. We’ve got our few populist Senators – Vance, Hawley, Braun, and Rick Scott. You can get a populist president.”
“But if you’re a populist, great thinker, it is really hard to become a judge. The system to become a judge requires judicial nominating commissions, and it’s a whole mating dance with the establishment that you have to go through to become a federal judge. It draws you deeper into the establishment to take a judicial position.”
“If we did all of this – won the swing states, beat DeSantis, trudged through the snow in Iowa and New Hampshire, got Trump through assassination attempts and indictments – all this, to eek out these majorities in the Congress, so that some sniveling, little, you-know-what, in a Massachusetts court room, can dictate to us the terms of US foreign policy, then this has all been for naught.”
“And so, it cannot stand. We are not getting out of this presidency without having to thoroughly reject one of these unconstitutional, nationwide injunctions. We cannot be tolerant of this judicial coup. We cannot have an administration, and a Congress, that sits back and allows the Harvard Law admissions council to be able to run the country.”

This is US foreign policy with enemy combatants – and with the public on our side – on President Trump’s signature issue. If we are not willing to do this in the face of some Woketopian in a black robe, then we did not deserve this victory.”
“This is Trump’s great superpower: revelation. I think he knows how to pick the fights to reveal the enemies, in the right sequence. But, my humble advice to the administration is: pick it on the Illegal Enemies Act and deportation, because through the resistance to the administration’s actions on that, you will reveal so much to the country about the Globalist invasion, and the judicial coup that is allowing it.”
“This requires fortitude and resilience. This is an activity where our country has to look within and say, ‘We are not going to let these [judges] conduct matters of US policy.’ The only acceptable response from this administration is to ignore these orders. I think, complying with them is constitutional vandalism.”
“The impeachments [of judges] are justified, but that’s not really a strategy. That’s more of a spasm. And Congress won’t cut the funding to anything. Even if the federal courthouse budget were cut 95 percent, those dedicated Woketopians that want to issue these injunctions will set up a tent in the parking lots and issue them,”
“I think they’re doing a great job over at [the DOJ]. I think most of the people who work there probably wake up everyday trying to make Attorney General Bondi’s job harder. When you look at it through that lens – what she’s done on deportations, and on the law enforcement front – she is a nose-to-the-grindstone law enforcement: go find the perpetrators, and hold them accountable.”
“We showed that power systems here don’t win all the time. I don’t know when others in Congress will be called upon to summon that courage to fight the beast, to fight the system in a similar way, but I think [McCarthy] is an important bookmark in history to say, if you really martial a sufficient amount of energy, and if you are tactical about it, you can beat power in this town. And power has to know that, occasionally, to inform decision making.”
GAETZ: The one place the elitists have us cornered out is the judiciary.
If we did ALL the work we did just to have some sniveling you-know-what in a courtroom dictate to us the terms of U.S. foreign policy…then this has all been for naught.@mattgaetz @FmrRepMattGaetz pic.twitter.com/q2N2uHx20n
