Judicial Tyranny: Tip of the Deep State Sword

Hundreds of Democrat party political hacks who happen to have attended law school for a couple of years have been rewarded for their hackism with appointments as federal district court judges. Armed with lifetime tenure and dressed in spooky looking black robes, they behave like an army of some 700 dictators responsible and answerable to no one as they plot their coup to take over the other two branches of government with their dictatorial decrees known as “nationwide injunctions.” In every instance in the past several months these “injunctions” have been aimed at stopping any attempts to reduce the size and power of the deep state, never to protect the constitutional liberties of the American people.


The deep state’s “supreme” court mostly serves the same purpose. This was recently on display when its “chief” justice John Roberts, who magically discovered Obamacare to be one of the delegated powers in the Constitution by calling it a “tax,” scolded President Trump for deporting several hundred members of a Central American criminal gang without first saying “Mother May I” to John Roberts.

"Thomas Jefferson was alarmed during his day of the threat of judicial tyranny of this sort. He feared that it could turn the Constitution into “a thing of wax” that could be “twisted into any form” (Letter to Judge Spencer Roane, Nov. 1819). Unlike congressmen and presidents, Jefferson noted, federal judges are “more dangerous [to liberty] as they are in office for life” (Letter to a Mr. Jarvis, Sept. 1820). The federal judiciary, said Jefferson, was “the subtle corps of sappers and miners constantly working underground to undermine our Constitution . . .” (Letter to Thomas Ritchie, Sept. 1820)."

 
Aww...sniff. Somebody need a safe space? :)
Three separate branches of government.

But congrats to Trump on finally creating that Deep State you idiots have been obsessing over for the last two decades.
It's finally a reality. :auiqs.jpg:

Jefferson reminded anyone who inquired that the Constitution does not give the judiciary the sole right to interpret the Constitution. The executive and congressional branches, “in their own spheres,” have equal rights, he said. As president, Jefferson freed everyone imprisoned by the Adams administration’s Sedition Act which made free political speech illegal. “I discharged every person under punishment or prosecution under the Sedition Law,” he said, “because I considered . . . that law to be a nullity.” The “supreme” court “Judges, believing the law constitutional, had a right to pass a sentence of fine and imprisonment, because the power was placed in their hands . . . . But the executive, believing the law to be unconstitutional, was bound to remit the execution of it” (The Political Writings of Thomas Jefferson, p. 154)

Yes, government lawyers with lifetime tenure did usurp powers not given to them by the Constitution when they began pretending that they somehow were given a monopoly of constitutional interpretation, but this idea was strongly opposed for generations by Americans in every state. The Jeffersonian position on judicial tyranny prevailed, in other words. In addition to the congress and the executive branch having the right and power to make constitutional interpretations, Jefferson said that “I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves,” organized in political communities at the state and local levels (The Political Writings of Thomas Jefferson, p. 154


 

Nearing the Final Battle Against the Deep State

30 Mar 2025 ~~ By Clarice Feldman

While numerous federal district court judges have issued ill-conceived restraining orders against the administration, I have long believed that it will prevail in its efforts to place control of the state in the hands of the elected executive, away from the deep state bureaucracy and its black-robed judicial allies. As the litigation of these matters proceeds, I think my belief will be justified. We will return to a constitutional republican form of government. For a day-to-day look at the progress of these multiple cases, I urge you to go to X and follow Professor Margot Cleveland, who is (bless her) keeping track of them and providing links to the pleadings and orders.
Three of these cases were appealed to the federal circuit courts. In one, the Fourth Circuit ruled that the President acted within his powers in dismissing members of “independent” agencies -- the NLRB and the Merit Systems Protection Board. That same circuit stayed the district court injunction banning Musk and others from working with USAID. In D.C., the Circuit Court in a 2-1 decision (in which each member filed a separate statement) ignored the fact that the lower court lacked jurisdiction to hear the case and improperly certified the class of Tren de Aragua members residing anywhere in the U.S. (District Judge James Boasberg did this to justify issuance of a nationwide injunction challenging the legality of the Alien Enemies Act.)
In a sign that the Administration was prepared for this eventuality, the next day, the Solicitor General filed a motion to vacate the order in the Supreme Court. I concur with Bill Shipley’s take:
~Snip~
In sum, as Shipley writes, the Department of Justice is telling the Supreme Court that these rulings by district courts have “become so commonplace that the Executive Branch’s basic functions are in peril,” and the Supreme Court needs to act, the sooner, the better.
~Snip~
Finally, scrolling through social media, I’m seeing clearly disturbed people attacking Teslas and Tesla owners, along with many young women and people of indiscernible sex filming loony threats from their cars or bedrooms. I can’t explain the widespread psychosis that motivates these people. (It’s different from the aged lefties attending Bernie rallies who remind me of the nutters on P.J. O’Rourke’s hilarious account of his Nation subscribers cruise through the former USSR in “Ship of Fools.”)
Many seem far more dangerous and will likely become even more so as we go through the process of righting the ship of state. Be prepared and stay vigilant. And if you live in Wisconsin, get off the couch and vote for Schimel and voter ID.


Commentary:
The Neo-Marxist Socialist Democrat response to Trump is to fight every action, regardless of how much it may help "We The People", deport the worst of illegal invaders, which helped to tank our economy in a big way, shrink a bloated bureaucracy of government, and salvage Bidens wrecked economy, while ignoring article 2 of the Constitution. Their war cry of “Fight” and "Resist" doesn’t evoke the same response Trump got after being shot inches from his brain, rising to his feet with fist up and shouting “fight fight fight”. Voters from all parties were inspired by this brave leader who didn’t faint at the sight of his own blood, with the determination only a patriot could have.
The irrevocable truth is that NMS Democrats are in a deep hole and continue dig themselves deeper as shown by their dismal approval rating of 26%.

I get a chuckle. Waging a "final battle" against an organization....that doesn't exist. The height of stupid. But then again, it's common to smite anyone who dare stands as a check to the Savior. :)
