Judicial Restraint Restraining the Judiciary

The EFF does not think much of Republicans’ latest strategy to help Donald Trump avoid legal defeats by hamstringing federal courts.
Here’s a bit of their article (emphasis added):
EFF opposes both bills. We see this legislation for what it is: a transparent attempt to limit courts’ ability to act as an effective check on the Trump administration’s recent flood of illegal orders and actions – some of which EFF itself is challenging. Congress should firmly oppose any effort to prevent the judicial branch from fulfilling its constitutional duty.
Afterthought:
I guess Republicans’ idea is, if you can’t beat ’em, castrate ’em.
