NEWT GINGRICH SAYS CONGRESS HAS POWER TO ARREST ROGUE FEDERAL JUDGES

The Hill reports “Gingrich: Congress can send Capitol Police to arrest rogue judges. GOP presidential frontrunner Newt Gingrich said Congress has the power to dispatch the Capitol Police or U.S. Marshals to apprehend a federal judge who renders a decision lawmakers broadly oppose. Gingrich says if there is broad opposition to a court decision, Congress should subpoena the ruling  judge to defend his or her action in a hearing room.”

Are there enough U.S. Marshalls to do the job?

Newt is so ethical these days. He must be running for the presidency.
