This is one of the most important cases in American history.
If a judge can simply hijack a case and pursue it on his own, he becomes the entire system: prosecutor, judge, executioner. We can’t add “jury” because they aren’t in the picture at all.
This is a reversion to the feudalist system of plenary judges who operated as omnipotent Inquisitors. Everything the judicial system of the United States was founded on is rejected if this stands. The judges will become a government of their own, accountable to no one other then other judges.
Sullivan should not just be overruled but impeached. But of course that’s only done to Presidents who upset the Intelligence “Community”, who have their own aspirations to seizing power.
It seems that an obvious question would be “who now becomes the prosecution since it won’t be the DOJ?” What legal process decides this? This is ridiculous in the extreme.
The Supreme Court should step in and stop this nonsense but it too is highly political and part of the problem with justice in this country.
Our national decline continues apace.
