U.S.A. — At least one judge in the Third Circuit believes the Commerce Clause overrides the Bill of Rights. In a recent decision of The United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, in the case Range v Lombardo, on June 6, 2023, the en banc court ruled some felony convictions are not sufficient to restrict Second Amendment rights, based on the historical record. Eleven of 15 judges concurred with the majority opinion. Four judges dissented.
One of those was Judge Janet Richards Roth, appointed to the Third Circuit by George H. W. Bush in 1991. She was born in 1935 and started her governmental career working as a typist and administrative assistant in the Foreign Service of the U.S. Department of State, in 1956. She graduated from Harvard Law School in 1965. Judge Roth assumed senior status on May 31, 2006. She is a few days short of her 88th birthday (June 16).
Judge Roth makes a strong case, based on Progressive philosophy, the Commerce Clause overrides the Bill of Rights. She gives the usual litany of Progressive “arguments”: Things have changed since the ratification of the Bill of Rights. The federal government has to have more power than the Bill of Rights allows. That was then. This is now. Here is part of the dissent from Judge Roth of the Third Circuit P. 96 of 107 :

A w judge
Any questions?
Nothing overrides the Bill Of Rights. Where is this Socialist clown coming from?????
Impeachment is too kind a fate for her. No agency can create laws per SCOTUS. She can argue all she wants but she knows she has a personal opinion and a profession opinion - neither opinion can stand the test of “Intent” of the law.
The Commerce Clause strikes again.
"Progressive philosophy" as a basis for overriding the bill of rights was debunked by our founders long ago...Fortunately, Article 5 of our Constitution doesn't mention crackpot progressive philosophy as being justification for anything. This judge is a disgrace.
Uh, which was the most recent? That would override the previous.
His position is analogous to stating that the 2nd amendment would override a newer amendment enacted to repeal it.
Thus, his position is hogwash.
Liberals believe that the Constitution is “living and breathing document” and the meanings of words can change with time. They make their decision based on what they want the outcome to be and then twist the Constitution to suit them.
Never trust a woman with 2 last names.
Read the article to see what this dingbat says.
Nothing overrides the Bill Of Rights.
Those are fighting words.
I will not comply with an onerous judge.
No way.
He can shove their “commerce clause”.
It has been used in an unethical manner almost every time it has been invoked.
Yep.
Ruth Buzzie Ginsberg’s sister?
The Articles of the Constitution define what the federal government consists of and what it can do (and those powers are few and limited). While the Bill of Rights states in no uncertain terms what the federal government cannot do.
Huh, that's odd. I'm not sure the BoR is restrictive ENOUGH on the goobermint.
They all have to be removed from the bench.

Yes, there are many judges this freakin’ stupid who should not be able to practice law in any form. With 99.9% of them being demrats.
