As far as I understand. US federal courts exist under Article Three of the United States Constitution. It requires only that the US has a Supreme Court, and it allows Congress to also create other (“inferior”) federal courts. I take it Congress can also remove these courts, so at least the Speaker isn’t proposing to violate the Constitution.
