What group would want to argue a case before a judiciary they know is badly compromised on this issue?
That’s why the retired military superiors eventually pushed to have Lakin get a different attorney who would drop the eligibility/Constitutional issue. They knew the judiciary is very badly compromised and cannot be trusted to give just decisions if they are forced to take a case.
As to WHY they are compromised - I have my suspicions, but it is something that SOMEBODY should investigate, possibly by an impeachment of Kagan and Sotomayor for the ethics breach of refusing to recuse themselves when there is a huge, glaring financial and personal conflict of interest.
Won’t happen until we have even an inkling of integrity from those who dwell and work in the cesspool.
The hope for this country is with the states, if anywhere.
I have been very encouraged by what I am seeing coming from states legislators regarding reclaiming power from the federal government. I hope this movement continues to grow and expand.
