America’s founding fathers created three branches of government for a reason. Nobody was supposed to have too much power. But here’s the thing – we’re watching unelected judges basically run the country now. One judge can overturn what millions of voters wanted. And guess what? It affects your wallet directly.

This week brought another jaw-dropping example. It should make every taxpayer mad. We’re talking about who controls your money – the people you elected or some judge you’ve never heard of sitting in a courtroom somewhere?

Get this – on Thursday, some federal judge named Ricardo Martinez decided he knows better than you how your tax dollars should be spent. He blocked the Trump administration from stopping illegal immigrant kids from getting into Head Start. That’s the free preschool program you pay for with your taxes. And Martinez didn’t just make this rule for his area. Nope. He made it for the whole country. One guy. Deciding for 330 million Americans.

From ‘Just the News’:

A federal judge on Thursday blocked the Trump administration policy barring illegal alien children from enrolling in Head Start, a Department of Health and Human Services program assisting with early childhood education. Martinez’s order marks the latest example of a federal judge issuing a nationwide stay on administration policies, despite a Supreme Court ruling that sought to rein in such practices.

The Trump team had a simple idea. Stop giving free stuff to people here illegally. Maybe they’ll go home on their own. Makes sense, right? Wrong – at least according to Judge Martinez.

A Pattern of Obstruction

This isn’t just happening once. Federal judges keep blocking Trump’s immigration policies. Border wall? Blocked. Asylum changes? Blocked. Every single time, one judge thinks they know better than the president you elected.

Martinez says the policy creates a “chilling effect.” He worries about “immediate harm” to education and services. But wait – since when do American taxpayers owe free preschool to people who broke our laws to get here? How many American kids are on Head Start waiting lists right now?

Head Start already doesn’t have enough money. There are waiting lists everywhere. Every spot given to an illegal immigrant’s kid means an American kid doesn’t get in. But Martinez? He doesn’t care about that part.

Your Money, Their Benefits

Let me break down the math. Head Start helps about 900,000 kids every year. It costs over $10 billion. That’s billion with a B. Even if just 5% goes to illegal immigrants, that’s $500 million of your money.

And here’s where it gets really crazy. If judges can force you to pay for illegal immigrants’ preschool, what’s next? Free healthcare? Free housing? Food stamps? Where does it end?

This also makes our border problem worse. Think about it. Word gets out that American judges will give you free stuff no matter what. Why wouldn’t more people come illegally? The judges basically put up a giant “Free Stuff Here” sign at the border.

The Constitutional Crisis Nobody’s Discussing

The Supreme Court already told lower judges to stop making rules for the whole country. They’re supposed to handle their own districts. Period. But judges like Martinez? They just ignore it. They know appeals take forever. By then, the damage is done.

This is bigger than just immigration. Today it’s Head Start. Tomorrow it could be anything. Tax cuts? Some judge blocks them. Defense spending? Blocked. Any policy some random judge doesn’t like? Gone. Is that really how we want to run America?

Remember when elections meant something? When the president you voted for could actually do the job? Those days are slipping away. We’re becoming a country run by whoever went to law school and got lucky with an appointment.

Every American should be mad about this. I don’t care what you think about immigration. This is about democracy. Do voters decide how tax money gets spent, or do judges? If we let judges win this fight, we might as well stop having elections. Why bother voting if Judge Martinez in Seattle gets the final say anyway?

Key Takeaways

• Federal judges keep ignoring Supreme Court limits on nationwide injunctions
• Taxpayers forced to fund Head Start for illegal immigrant children
• One judge can now override millions of voters’ policy choices
• Every benefit given to illegals means less for American families
