Unelected Judges Trying to Diminish Trump’s Executive Weight

Written by Robert Knight

President Donald Trump is in a public wrestling match with Chief Justice John Roberts and some of the federal judiciary.

Along with congressional lawmakers, Mr. Trump has called for impeaching several U.S. district judges who have issued orders blocking his administration from carrying out key policies.

Mr. Roberts says this imperils the independence of the judiciary, without which abuses of power could become routine.

Mr. Trump says that this is nonsense, that these judges have gone well beyond their authority to hear cases and are trying to dictate national policy.… Continue Reading

How Trump Can Dismantle The Imperial Judiciary Once & For All

Written by Daniel Horowitz

When Alexander Hamilton wrote in Federalist No. 78 that the U.S. Supreme Court would wield “neither force nor will” over politics, he never envisioned the judiciary having the final say on every political decision in the country. Now imagine his reaction if he were told during the American Revolution that, in the future, a single lower-court judge could unilaterally grant citizenship to illegal immigrants’ children, override the will of elected branches, and even force the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to maintain information about transgenderism on its website.… Continue Reading

Transgender Delusion Needs to End

Written by Robert Knight

About half of America’s 50 states seem to care more about children’s well-being than about being sufficiently “woke.”

That’s why they don’t embrace gender insanity and instead ban puberty-blocking drugs, cross-sex hormones and irreversible surgery for minors.

The U.S. Supreme Court this past week heard arguments on Tennessee’s law barring trans treatments for minors.

Some justices blew wide holes in the case for creating trans kids. But it’s by no means a lock that this allegedly conservative court will restore sanity on this issue.… Continue Reading

Supreme Humiliation: Justices Brown-Jackson & Sotomayor Disgrace the Court

Written by Peter Heck

I know it sounds crazy to say in our modern era, but the federal judiciary was little more than an afterthought to the Founding Fathers who designed our constitutional system.

Thomas Jefferson, the same guy who penned a fairly scorching list of grievances against unaccountable, tyrannical government, entitled the Declaration of Independence, called the federal judiciary the “least dangerous” branch.

Well, Thomas Jefferson never met Ketanji Brown Jackson or Sonia Sotomayor.

I’m assured that if he had, the third president might rethink his comfort level with unelected, black-robed lawyers, being able to operate as an oligarchy, legislating, vetoing, and dictating from the bench.… Continue Reading

The Left-Wing “Threat to Democracy”

Written by Peter Heck

Something really started bothering me as I read the news that our sister site, The Babylon Bee, was forced into a lawsuit against Governor Gavin Newsom and the absurd California legislature for passing an anti-free speech law in their state.

I read that news the same day I saw a “thread” post from mega-minister Ray Ortlund that stated, “Never Trump, this time Harris, always Jesus.” The post was endorsed by Christian writer David French who affirmed, “This is the way.”… Continue Reading

Lame (Duck) Joe’s SCOTUS Deconstruction Scheme

Written by James M. Odom, Senior Counsel

All Americans should be in favor of term limits for the U.S. Supreme Court.

“How long is the term of a Supreme Court Justice?

The Constitution [Article III, Section 1] states that Justices “shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour.” This means that the Justices hold office as long as they choose and can only be removed from office by impeachment.”

The term of a Supreme Court Justice is life, and one life term is enough!… Continue Reading

Biden Plans to Support Sweeping Changes to the SCOTUS

Written by Jorge Gomez

President Joe Biden plans to propose sweeping changes to the U.S. Supreme Court, according to recent reports. This includes legislation to impose term limits for justices, which would have the most immediate impact on the longest-serving members of the court, Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito. He is also expected to push for an enforceable code of ethics.

Due to recent decisions that haven’t gone his way, Biden is now joining the radical Left to attack the U.S.… Continue Reading

SCOTUS Missed Opportunity to Uphold Freedom of Speech

Written by Robert Knight

The U.S. Supreme Court works in strange and mysterious ways.

It can enrage the progressive left with a solidly constitutional ruling like Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization (2022), which overturned Roe v. Wade and sent the issue of abortion to the states.

But it can also amaze and frustrate conservatives, as when it refused before and after the 2020 election to review Pennsylvania officials’ unconstitutional changes to election procedures.

“We failed to settle this dispute before the election and thus provide clear rules.… Continue Reading

Grandma’s J6 Case Highlights Justice Double Standard

Written by Daniel Horowitz

Have you ever wondered what our jails and prisons would look like had the Black Lives Matter rioters of 2020 been given the “January 6 treatment”? Well, it’s hard to envision such a parallel universe. We don’t have enough jail cells to house the tens of thousands — if not hundreds of thousands — of individuals who would be languishing in prison for years based on the January 6 standard of justice.… Continue Reading

Democrats Show Contempt For The Constitution With Trump Conviction

Written by Robert Knight

“Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way,
Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass.
Cease from anger, and forsake wrath;
Do not fret — it only causes harm.”
(Psalm 37:7-8)

The Scriptures are the best place to go when something makes no sense — like the unanimous jury conviction of former President Donald Trump.

A friend of mine who is wired into international intelligence added some perspective to the stunning 34-count guilty verdict against Mr.… Continue Reading
