The courts should never have been given this much power. It’s absolutely insane that everyone has to hold their breath whenever a bunch of black-robed political puppets get to decide whether or not we get to keep our Constitutional rights.
The Courts were never GIVEN this much power. Like all things govt, they usurped. With no push-back (just HOW many judges have been removed from the bench since our Founding?...Maybe hands and feet??), they presumed more powers than authority granted.
Lastly, (no offense ahead of time), I loathe the term ‘allowed to keep our Rights’. Rights are inalienable. Govt can merely suppress. We the People are the FINAL arbiters of what and what is not Constitutional, for w/out We there IS no govt.
Black robed oligarchs is correct. Unfortunately, I have heard little in their election season to suggest it will change anytime soon.
