I’ve spent decades fighting a government that doesn’t always play fair—and doesn’t always follow the law. The one thing that’s kept them in check? The courts.

Veterans like me know what it means to finally get a ruling in your favor. To have a judge say, You were wronged. This stops now. But what happens when the government can just ignore that order? No penalties. No contempt. No consequences.

That’s exactly what’s buried in the latest House spending bill—a provision that strips federal courts of their power to enforce injunctions or restraining orders unless a bond was posted when the order was issued.

That may sound technical. It’s not. It’s dangerous. And it should be front-page news.

Where is the press?
