R: THE CONSERVATIVE COURTS - A Republican Assault Upon the Judiciary

I've spoken about the conservative Supreme Court in other threads and of how their legitimacy, as an unbiased judicial institution has fallen into question, and RIGHTFULLY SO.

However, the Republican assault upon America's judicial branch of government goes way beyond the SCOTUS, beyond McConnell's deliberate blocking of Obama's Supreme Court nominee, beyond his threats to never allow a 9th justice should Hillary Clinton win the presidency, and even beyond Justices Scalia and Thomas sneaking off to Heritage Foundation pow-wows and other right wing, think tank, corroborations.

It is why it's NO coincidence that all SIX of the conservative super majority of the SCOTUS are or were members of the Federalist Society, the organization that has literally orchestrated and dictated the right winged judicial agenda.

From wikipedia:

In January 2019, The Washington Post Magazine wrote that the Federalist Society had reached an "unprecedented peak of power and influence."

Politico wrote that the Federalist Society "has become one of the most influential legal organizations in history—not only shaping law students' thinking but changing American society itself by deliberately, diligently shifting the country's judiciary to the right."

So the PLOT to reshape and mold America's justice system in their OWN image was there from the START..

For those inclined to tell ops what their threads are supposed to be about, YES, this thread is going to talk about the radical FAR-right Supreme Court - I'll talk about them a LOT, and badly. And again rightfully so. Nor am I alone.
