Victor Davis Hanson succinctly sets out the corruption of the DOJ/FBI, Government Agencies, Judges, and Media all in one succinct post.

I thought it was so well set out that I'd post the entire comment here so Freepers could use it for reference.

He confuses American Jurisprudence with Leftist Jurisprejudice.

The first step on the road back to jurisprudence is to fire each and every US Attorney in the country, minute one of the next Trump Administration. Next is to fire the political hierarchy of the DOJ and FBI and to force the transfer of those left (the careerist deep states) to Alaska or the Antarctic.

The nexts steps should consider working through Congress to impeach a whole bunch of federal judges.

VDH is one of the very best commentators on the current political and social scene.

The J6 farce has already proven out the existence of the Deep Police State

He is indeed. All House members and Senators should be required to listen to him and read his articles on a daily basis. In fact, VDH should do a Ted-talk to Congress once a year giving them at least a two-hour lecture on the Constitution and history of our nation.

Regarding the federal judges impeaching & conviction\removal would be very very difficult. It might be easier to dramatically increase the number of federal judgeships therefore diluting the effect of the leftist judges. Another advantage in that the newer judges would be younger hence last longer as the Zero appointed drones (8 years worth!) die off or retire.

Many of them if not most have reading comprehension problems as well as attention deficit disorders!

How else would you explain their decision-making skills?

Actually, I’m not against drastically reducing then number of federal judges, but I do think that Congress should take more of an active role in keeping this growing trend of “legislating from the bench” under tight, tight control, and the only way I know of right now is to impeach them.

We have to stop, completely stop, leftists like Leticia James from judge/circuit shopping to judges like that leftist Engoron

Both James and Engoron are part of the NY State legal/judicial system. They could do what they are doing if all the federal judges were GOP/Trump appointees. A Constitutionaly oriented federal judge could stop Jack Smith!

Don’t be silly. They just choose to interpret words differently. SC Hawaii says they read the words of the 2nd Amendment, “the right of the people to keep and bear arms”, differently than SCOTUS.

It’s not unlike a ‘mostly peaceful’ demonstration as the town Is burning behind the reporter or an ‘insurrection’ by unarmed people walking between the velvet ropes.

Hawaiian SC’s interpretation of the 2nd Amendment sounds like a reading comprehension problem to me!

No, it is not. They understand the words. They understand the Supreme Court ruling in Bruen.

It is important to understand they see the role of a judge is not to evenhandedly administer the rule of law.

To progressives, the role of a judge is to use their power to reach leftist goals, to move society in the direction they wish to move it.

I didn’t realize there were so many humor impaired people on this site!

I wasn’t being serious!! It was tongue-in-cheek; both comments!

Nothing ropes and trees can’t solve.

Maybe guillotines?

And to me as well, but don’t forget that they are just expressing ‘their truths’ which as Fearless Brandon has told us are more important than facts.

But the Hawaiian SC concept allows for all kinds of interesting results. It opens up the reintroduction of slavery, since it is now possible to read the words of the 13th Amendment as requiring slavery.

Supposedly, the British Army played a popular tune of the time when it surrendered at Yorktown, “The World Turned Upside Down”. We are living in such times.
