El Salvador’s President, Nayib Bukele, ignited a wave of controversy by stating on his X account that the United States is facing a “Judicial Coup.” His remark resonates with recent federal court rulings blocking Donald Trump’s executive orders, such as the abolition of birthright citizenship and immigration deportations.
This statement comes as three federal judges in different states have issued injunctions against Trump’s policies, with appellate courts refusing to lift these blocks, intensifying accusations of “globalist and activist judges” attempting to hinder the government.
Users on X, including those calling for politicians to be investigated, see these rulings as a “massive abuse of power,” which Bukele is now denouncing to the world.
Bukele’s actions in El Salvador, where he removed judges and carried out mass arrests under a state of emergency since 2022, appear to inspire suggestions to replicate his model in the U.S. to save the nation, according to comments on X praising his approach.
In El Salvador, Bukele used his parliamentary majority in 2021 to remove five Supreme Court judges and the Attorney General—an action that the opposition and international organizations, such as Amnesty International (April 2, 2024), labeled as an attack on judicial independence and a “coup” against the rule of law.
Recently, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito criticized a federal judge’s ruling blocking Trump’s freeze on foreign aid, highlighting deep judicial divisions fueling accusations of a “rogue” judiciary. This tension reinforces conservative calls to “impeach all corrupt judges.”
The reaction on X, including phrases like “Long live the patriots!” and “The judiciary has gone insane, preventing Trump from fulfilling the agenda for which the American people overwhelmingly elected him,” reflects conservative frustration with what they perceive as judicial bias—an issue frequently criticized by Trump regarding federal judges.
This episode places the independence of the judiciary at the center of the global debate, but the evidence is clear: activist and globalist judges who attempt to stop Trump’s orders with unjust judicial rulings are undermining the will of the American people, who elected Trump to restore order and sovereignty.
We strongly support President Trump in his fight to implement his legitimate agenda and demand immediate action against these corrupt judges who threaten democracy.
Justice must prevail, and the judiciary must respect the people’s mandate!
