The left’s attack on our traditional forms of constitutional democracy has been hugely successful in abolishing cherished institutions like the secret ballot and same-day voting. Encouraged by these victories, the left set its sights on eliminating judicial independence. Justices Thomas and Alito were subjected to hateful moral attacks. The left is furious over the decision being overturned Roe v. Wade410 US 113 (1973), the abortion rights case, they are now trying to force two of the Supreme Court’s most principled and talented members to resign or recuse themselves from participating in important cases regarding the 2020 and 2024 elections that they have a constitutional duty to help decide.
I wrote on this blog last winter that Justice Thomas’s opinion showed a deep devotion to the rule of law and was remarkable on its merits. Not only does Justice Thomas not take bribes, he is actually the best judge to serve on the Supreme Court in the 234-year history of the United States. No one can read Justice Thomas’s opinion and not be impressed by it. On the surface, Justice Thomas would never change a word of what he wrote because of a gift from a friend.
The Left’s Attack on Justice Alito Is Based on Opposition to the Justice wife After the events of January 6, 2021, and Joe Biden’s success in stealing the 2020 presidential election by changing our traditions that people should vote secretly, individually, on a certain day, the American flag flies upside down – behind a distress signal booth With the curtains drawn. Justice Alito’s wife is not the only one who believes the left is using dirty tricks to abolish secret ballots, install ballot boxes, and abolish same-day voting in public places that would shame Richard Nixon. A CNN (CNN) poll on July 25, 2023 showed that nearly 70% of Republicans believe that the 2020 presidential election was actually stolen.
In this case, Justice Alito’s wife has a First Amendment right to fly the American flag in distress mode or fly the Christian Appeals Heaven flag to express her frustration and anguish with the American political process. I distinctly remember left-wing law professors applauding the U.S. Supreme Court decision. Texas v. Johnson491 U.S. 397 (1989), Americans had The First Amendment right to burn the flag To express their disapproval of what the U.S. government was doing at the time. opinions in Texas v. Johnson Written by liberal giant William J. Brennan, Thurgood Marshall, Harry Blackmun, Antonin Scalia, and Antonin Justice Anthony M. Kennedy also participated. For 35 years, it has been widely praised by law professors on the left and right as part of the gold standard for protecting free speech. Obviously, if you have a First Amendment right to burn the flag to make a point, you also have a First Amendment right to fly the flag in distress mode or fly the Appeal Haven flag to make a point.
It is appropriate for Justices Thomas and Alito themselves to stay out of politics, but it is unreasonable for the left to demand that their wives stay out of politics as well. The left’s recent effort to expose the conduct of judges’ wives is unprecedented, bullying, and unconstitutional because it interferes with the exercise of their First Amendment rights. The left is asking Justices Thomas and Alito to recuse themselves from Trump-related election cases because of their wives’ actions. This outrageous demand once again demonstrates the left’s anger that the Supreme Court’s 85-year monopoly on the Supreme Court majority has been broken. Justices Thomas and Alito should fulfill their duties under the Constitution they are sworn to uphold, and they should hear every election-related case the Supreme Court hears starting in 2020 or 2024.
The left should be ashamed of itself for seeking to politicize our independent lifelong judiciary. left. The left will use their own methods to undermine all of our constitutional rights and freedoms. Thank God the men and women on our Supreme Court are willing to defend the Constitution despite the mess the left has made of their lives. The Republican justices must travel in the cocoon of the U.S. Marshall, who is hypervigilant for his own safety. Justices are accosted when they walk into a store or restaurant. This, my friends, is how constitutional democracy dies. We should condemn in the strongest possible terms those who threaten the independence of our lifelong judiciary.
