Jefferson on Marbury vs Madison that established the judiciary as ultimate arbiters. His criticism is just as valid today as it was then, and it’s exactly what has transpired. . He should read this before the American people and tell the people that one branch of government doesn’t Trump the other two.
Jefferson disagreed with Marshall’s reasoning in this case:
“You seem to consider the judges as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions; a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy. Our judges are as honest as other men, and not more so. They have, with others, the same passions for party, for power, and the privilege of their corps.... Their power [is] the more dangerous as they are in office for life, and not responsible, as the other functionaries are, to the elective control. The Constitution has erected no such single tribunal, knowing that to whatever hands confided, with the corruptions of time and party, its members would become despots. It has more wisely made all the departments co-equal and co-sovereign within themselves.”
I understand that you quote Jefferson, but understand that the branches are in fact not coequal.
The primary power is with the Congress, Article 1
Secondary the Executive, Article 2
Last and most definitely least, the judiciary Article 3.
They cannot be coequal because they do not have the same function or responsibilities
Furthermore, there is no authority for any court save the Supreme Court in the Constitution.
It is HIGH time to end the radical reign of the tyrannical despot so-called judges in federal courts created by the Congress.
