Interesting point, but if it were to happen in the US, it would only happen because the people let it happen. There is absolutely nothing, not one thing, that prevents the people from changing things and bringing it back to the way it was supposed to be.
The same can be said for you folks, up North. The State is powerful in both places, but it only takes some leadership.
Here in the US, IMHO, the ‘Red/Conservative’ states outnumber the Liberal ones. The remaining few are a mix. The US has liberal Governors banding together to get rid of the electoral college, declaring themselves sanctuary states and ignoring immigration law.
What happens if the Conservative Governors get together and tell Pelosi, Schiff and Schumer....No More? What happens if they tell Congress no more illegals, refugees, unfunded mandates, obamacare, globalist-Agenda 21 crap, you name it?
Actually, the courts are accountable to congress. Congress can impeach, convict and remove judges. The only court that is mandated by the constitution is the Supreme Court and it cannot be dissolved. However, congress created and can dissolve any lower federal court. If this country should ever again be blessed by almighty God and every election an honest one, I think we could easily see a Senate of at least 67 patriots and a house of at least 51% patriots, in which case the court system could be completely reformed, and all of these corrupt, partisan and STUPID judges removed from the bench.
LOL. Thanks. I won’t take the “L” on this one just yet. While I believe the legislative branch is “superior” to the executive branch under the U.S. Constitution, I also DO NOT believe Congress can compel testimony from executive branch officials in cases like this.
Ketanji Brown Jackson!!! what the hell are we in Zimbabwe. The criminals stick together and make their own rules. Show up and use “I don’t recall”
Obama Judge issued a totally tortuously reasoned partisan political decision. All ready being appealed

Feral judges are tyrants. Constitutional limits mean nothing to them.
I saw commentary that was to the effect that although the congressional sopena can require appearance, it does not follow that the concept of executive privileged testimony is removed. The witness can still claim to not answer questions citing executive priviledge.
The ruling is apparently that executive priviledge does not extend to appearance. That apparently is a new issue being tested
Excellent observation.
Take the L. Lol. Good to see you view this as a contest and not a discussion.
