Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) on Supreme Court: "It is a corrupt court"

[struth]

Or like a large number of states do?

Not that many state engage in partisan elections, 7 in fact

It’s really a horrible way, politics shouldn’t play a role in judicial process

Your first sentence is gobbledegook and incorrect
The illegal package failed

No different than if you filed a lawsuit, but didn't put sufficient postage on the papers you filed with the court. So they get returned for postage, causing delivery by a required date to miss the deadline, And your case is thrown out.

It was thrown out, not on the merits, but on a technicality.

If democrats had their way, there would be no supreme court. You just take a poll and the majority rules.

You mean like how voters got to choose Kamala to run against Trump instead of Joe?

It was thrown out on the merits. The issue was the dems illegally put the referendum on the ballot

The court said yes yes they did

That’s not the same as missing a deadline and getting your case tossed

Some stare decisis is more equal than others?

Radical mastectomies (Halsted procedures) ceased to be the preferred treatment for breast cancer during the 1970s, with a definitive shift towards less invasive methods occurring by the early 1980s. Clinical trials confirmed that less disfiguring surgeries, such as the modified radical mastectomy, offered the same survival rates.

More doctors agreed on the new procedure than the old decided on procedure.

That was a procedural violation. How the referendum was conducted, and it's conclusions were properly done. And would have produced valid results.

It's ironic how throughout the 20th century when we saw radical decisions come out of SCOTUS that benefited the left's agenda Democrats never called the court corrupt or illegitimate (nor did the Republicans). Now that we have a court that rules the closest to the original intent of the Constitution in my lifetime it's suddenly corrupt and needs reformed. This is the same kind of rhetoric and proposed actions we see from far-left socialist regimes throughout the world. They get into power and install their own corrupt thugs to destroy the judicial and constitutional institutions to give them everything they want that they can't win through legitimate means.

Cory Booker calls Supreme Court ‘profoundly hypocritical’ after voting rights ruling: Full interview

Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) joins Meet the Press after the U.S. Supreme Court imposed new limits on the Voting Rights Act and the Virginia Supreme Court overturned a new Democratic-leaning congressional map approved by voters.

I am not going to listen to Booker run his mouth, so I don't know what he bases his charge of corruption on. I know Thomas was accused of accepting questionable gifts but he is who he always was and his rulings were unaffected. So that's a long way from being corrupt, and it's rich with irony when a democrat talks about corruption.

No they weren’t, because it was illegally placed on the ballot

What part of that don’t you get?

The process was illegally and unconstitutionally done

What you fail to grasp is that Roberts and Alito have from early in their legal careers wanted to get rid of the voting rights act / roe v wade / etc.
And the rational behind doing so doesn't use prior law (stare decisis) or even a through legal analysis,

What you fail to grasp is that stare decisis does not exist in the Constitution. It's a construct of jurists and lawyers over the centuries.

but instead relies on their own judgement of the state of racism in America. Using the conclusion that racism no longer exists.

Institutionally, it doesn't, unless of course you're including DEI which gives certain people preference over others based on their skin color or chromosomes.

Thus the laws enacted by congress and signed into law, no longer have a compelling government interest, and violate the constitutions equal protection.

Correct. It's 2026, not 1955.

The Virginia failed gerrymander was ruled unconstitutional by the Virginia court and not by SCOTUS.

And that's relevant to this discussion how?

 

[Mick2]

The gerrymander wasn't ruled unconstitutional. The procedures to bring about the vote were ruled unconstitutional.

The maps that were drawn would pass constitutional scritiny.

The VA court wasn't ask to rule on whether the maps were unconstitutional. They were asked to rule on the procedural effort to get there. They did rule on that and Dems violated the Constitution.

The first question on whether the maps were Constitutional at all is still open.....
but far from settled.

When a more unified court determines that a less decisive decision was wrong, then it is correct to throw out the old judgement.

It's no different then when it happens to scientific theories or best practices. When you convince a greater number of scientists or doctors that the old theory or method was wrong, and more of them agree to replace, than had taken the opposite view, that new judgement was rightly made.

But…but…when when….if…if..
