With so many inferior courts flouting the Bruen and Heller, what power, if any, does SCOTUS have to reign in the lower courts? Injunction after injunction is being stayed despite the obvious constitutional grounds upon which they stand. It's like pissing into the wind at this point.

No clue if this is possible, probable or ever been done

Could the USSC remove the offending Judge from the Bar?

My guess is probably not

SCOTUS can only review so manh cases each session so the lower know it will take YEARS before their orders are reviewed, remanded or reversed. The USSC also, to my knowledge, has never punished a lower court although they have the authority to do so
