The Ninth Circus and justice is an oxymoron.

It’s simple, Ninth Circuit. Just declare it “unconstitutional”.

Your entire political hack infested kangaroo court should be entirely dismantled and never rebuilt.

The 9th Circus is a disgrace, and all activist judges should be impeached.

And if the idiot senate is going to continue to put these type of judges on the bench, then lets not have anymore federal judges at all.

Since when do they decide what the Legislative Branch can do about the funding that only they can legislate? We are sick of arrogant judges, who are unelected but dictate everything in our lives.
