America’s Federal Courts are Broken and Trump and his Party are to Blame

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

If you are paying attention to the most serious and destructive situation in America you are aware that the federal court system has been corrupted from the Supreme Court to every lower court in every state.

Every Republican president since Reagan intentionally appointed or nominated judges who lean to the far right. Because of this irrefutable fact, justice in America is not blind, nor is it without bias.

The greatest disaster and affront to the intentions of our Founding Fathers is the Supreme Court of the United States. When our Founding Fathers created the Judicial Branch of our check and balance system, they devised what they believed was a plan which would prevent the Court from becoming politicized. This has become the greatest mistake in the entire Constitutional Convention.

PROOF THAT TERM LIMITS ARE NECESSARY FOR ALL ELECTED OFFICIALS AND THE COURT

Justices were given lifetime appointments which prevented the need to win elections which are always divided along party lines. In 2024 the Court is composed of six right wing extremists, and three who lean towards a more progressive agenda. It is broken and recent decisions have removed rights guaranteed by the very Constitution they are sworn to protect. Six fascist leaning justices continue to repeal decisions from legitimate Courts in years past and rewrite laws in support of right-wing policy. This is not the function of the highest Court in the land.

The final three justices nominated by Trump and confirmed by Moscow Mitch’s Senate, were not selected by the orange buffoon. He had no idea what he was doing. Moscow Mitch, along with the Federalist Society, selected two men and one woman whose only necessary qualification was a promise to repeal Roe v Wade should the opportunity arise. They kept their promises.

Fact: abortion should never have become a political issue. It should have remained a personal and difficult decision. All Americans must protect every woman’s right to make decisions about her own mental and physical health. Government has no right to make that decision for her.

However, the Christian Religious Right is one of the owners of all right-wing politicians. Votes are more important than America’s women.

A SECOND TERM FOR TRUMP WOULD GREATLY EXACERBATE THE SITUATION

Some federal judges are moving into their 80’s. Trump, with the guidance of the Federalist Society, could add more biased judges to the system.

This is a serious situation. Federal judges could be responsible for moving our nation even closer to a fascist regime. The future of all 330+ million Americans could be in the hands of a few.

Today, five men and one woman are altering our country’s future, and not for the better. Our Supreme Court is under orders to remake America into a nation which supports Trump/Putin’s plans. Traitors are among us.

A final, personal note. I have criticized presidents, and members of the House and Senate for years. I always believed that the Supreme Court would protect us from them.

Today’s Court has become our greatest enemy, and I’m afraid that nothing will be done to change the situation.

With lifetime appointments, there is nothing the voting public can do, and I guarantee that the fake Republicans in the House and Senate will protect their fellow right-wing extremists.

We need a strong and patriotic American in the White House now more than ever. That sure as hell is not Donald John Trump.
