It reminds us of the fact that Republicans and Democrats both give us bad judges that need to be dealt with in some way.
Donald Trump has gotten smacked on border controls by the federal judiciary and seems content with the ‘appeals process’ for now.
Bad judicial rulings cannot be allowed to continue with silence or perhaps inaction, depending on the situation.
I’ve read somewhere that Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War went so far as to put federal judges under house arrest to prevent them from ruling in favor of people in the North who opposed the Civil War and were being punished for it by Lincoln.
If leaders are wnwilling to oppose judges, then it goes to the people.
A court packed by Communist presidents annulled the legislature in Venezuela the other week and the people took to the streets to push for removal of the judges by the legislature and the national ombudsman.
They were met with tear gas and rubber bullets and the protests continue into this week with at least 4 dead and many injured.
