In a fiery clash that has sent shockwaves through the halls of Congress, Representative Jamie Raskin launched a scathing attack on Jim Jordan, humiliating the Ohio Republican for his blatant ignorance of the law. During a heated committee hearing, Raskin highlighted the alarming reality that 34 federal judges across 11 districts—appointed by both Republican and Democratic presidents—have issued 57 preliminary injunctions against actions taken by former President Trump and tech mogul Elon Musk. These judges, Raskin asserted, are not “radical” as Jordan suggested, but rather are upholding the Constitution against unprecedented legal violations.

Raskin’s impassioned defense of due process came in the wake of a harrowing case involving Kilmer Garcia, a Maryland resident wrongfully deported to El Salvador due to a lack of legal representation. The Trump administration’s admission of error only intensified Raskin’s argument that the judiciary is essential for protecting citizens’ rights. He condemned attempts by some lawmakers to impeach judges like Jeb Booseberg who stand firm against unlawful executive actions, emphasizing that the judges are fulfilling their duty to the law.

As tensions escalated, Raskin slammed Trump’s administration for its reckless disregard for the Constitution, declaring, “America has never seen anything like it before.” He criticized those who campaign on unconstitutional platforms, arguing that such actions do not grant them legitimacy. Raskin’s rebuke of Jordan’s ignorance was clear: “Even if you have access to artificial intelligence, you have no access to human intelligence.”

In a blistering conclusion, Raskin reminded Congress that the Constitution begins with “We the People,” not with “We the Dictators.” His powerful words resonate as a clarion call for justice and the rule of law, leaving the audience—and the nation—reeling from the implications of this intense confrontation. As the debate over constitutional integrity continues, the stakes have never been higher.
