John Roberts and Amy Coney Barrett had better wake up from their stupid little dreamworld and end this lawless nonsense from their precious co-credentialists in robes forthwith, or they can watch their lawyer friends turn the judiciary into a joke which no president or Congress will listen to ever again. These cowardly morons don’t seem to understand that all their power and authority is little more than a figment of the political imagination—once the desire to believe in the judicial tooth fairy is gone, it is gone forever, and nothing will bring it back. Wiser men with far stronger backbones understood this for centuries—they knew their power as an institution was entirely one of perception, given the institution’s lack of any real power to enforce its rulings against the two far more powerful branches of the federal government. The Supreme Court controls no army and no bank account. Its police can barely keep people out of its own building or away from the homes of its members. How on earth will it enforce rulings without the force of money or arms? The simple truth is it cannot, and its smarter members—until recently, at least—understood the court’s unique challenge: how to enforce rulings against two institutions despite any real power to do so. Those with brains and no fear of their own shadows knew this was only possible if the politicians and the people believed the courts had the necessary credibility and reputation to produce long-term deference to its decisions. We are rapidly approaching the point where that is no longer the case. And if Justices Tweedledum and Tweedledee insist on closing their eyes and sticking their fingers in their ears in the belief that if they can’t see or hear or the consequences of their own idiocy and cowardice then there won’t be any, then their only precious legacy will be the destruction of the very institution they’re allegedly so desperate to save.

What a prime example of butchering Scripture. notthebee.com The American Bar Association Journal reported at the end of last month that the Pam Bondi's Justice Department has filed an official misconduct complaint against Biden-appointed District Court Judge Ana Reyes. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit will decide if Reyes committed "hostile and egregious misconduct" in her recent hearing over Trump's efforts to revise the military's transgender policy. What did she do? In simple terms, she attempted to Jesus-shame the government's attorneys by suggesting that the ban on transgenders in the military ran afoul of what "Jesus would do." Seriously.
