In Trump’s first term the Supreme Court could not issue an injunction preventing him from saving the Supreme Court. We are so fortunate that Hillary lost.
From Israel to the United States, via Europe, the judicial coup d'état has become permanent. In the West, it is not the executive that threatens the separation of powers. It is faceless judges lacking democratic legitimacy who legislate on the pretext of judging.
Excellent article.
What we would look like is not rule of law but lawlessness and anarchy as the oligarchy seized power and protected themselves and left the rest of us to live in the hell on earth they created.
“Currently at the U.S. Supreme Court, the conservatives hold a 6-3 majority.”
Wanted to stop reading there, but I rolled my eyes and continued.
This is exactly why the Executive has to HIMSELF stand up for his rights when the courts trash law reason and tradition. Giving a corrupt institution the final vote on the question is insane. We’re not talking about the grey area of written law here that is the courts bailiwick.
Someone pass the word to the Wisconsin GOP - they were asleep at the switch as the Wisconsin Supreme Court was flipped. That oversight will take years to reverse.
It isn’t 6-3 conservative. More like 4-5.
There is a bit of fear porn in this article. The fact is that there is a solid, somewhat conservative majority on the court. The court is undoing a lot of bad liberal jurisprudence. Could it be better? Sure. But its as good as it has been in a long time. This is a time to celebrate and use the court to achieve conservative aims. Not worry about what happens if Liberals take a 6-3 majority.
I do have a pet peeve when people call the court a 6-3 conservative court. At best it is a 5-3-1 Court as Roberts is not a conservative. It is a 6-3 Republican President appointed court. But Democrats do a better job at appointing ideological loyalists.
“The Fate Of The U.S. If The Left Got Control Of The Supreme Court”
...and Mark Levin was good with this through much of 2016, including through a month after the convention, when it was officially either Trump or Skunk Cabbage. He only decided to support Trump that September, after his (crashing) ratings came in. And all because Trump fought back against Cruz.
So much for him being our “Constitutional Scholar”...he was more of a “Constitutional Terrorist” in those days.
If they get Congress back they will pack the Supreme and legalize all illegals to vote. Instant permanent majority.
Our freedom still hangs by a thin thread.
They have control now.
As much as I can’t stand Mitch McConnell, we really owe that dude for his ballsy, unprecedented Merrick Garland nuking.
A TRULY frightening thing to consider! The SC would immediately dispense with all Constitutional regard and institute fascist liberalism upon America citizens. America would quickly become a cesspool of the worst that current democrat run States now endure...
unfortunately, it WOULD then be time for the patriots of the United States to bear arms against them.
Shows how tentative our freedoms really are. More reason to thank God Almighty every day for our freedom.
The left had control of the supremes for decades.
Only after The Donald installed 3 did conservatives get a chance.
And libs went out house rat crazy.
