1. They have magically made corporations Into citizens.
2. Prevented voters from knowing the origins of campaign contributions.
3. Distorted our electoral process by allowing blatant political gerrymandering.
4. Abandoned the necessary protections of our voting rights.
5. Deliberately misinterpreted the second amendment as a free-for-all gun ownership right.
6. Persistently demolishing the wall between church and state.
7. Blithely dismissed fifty years of established legal president and declared themselves physicians and overlords of women’s bodies and health care.
8. Without credentials or expertise they elevated themselves above experts in the federal agencies to make every micro-decision required to enforce congressional will.
9. Trampled upon the very reason our forefathers fought and died during our American revolution in 1776, threw out our basic American premise that NO PERSON IS ABOVE THE LAW IN AMERICA and PROCLAIMED America’s President to be America’s KING.
10. Justices accept millions of dollars in “gifts.”
11. Justices refuse to be bound by meaningful ethics rules.
12. Justices refuse to recuse themselves with obvious conflict of interests.
13. Justices’ spouses publicly support January 6th insurrectionists and advocate the overthrow of American democracy.
14. Justices needlessly and intentionally delay review of the presidential immunity issue to benefit Donald Trump.
15. Justices overrule legally sound and defensible trial and appellate court decisions on presidential immunity with a legally indefensible and grotesquely political ruling designed solely to protect their Republican benefactor, Donald Trump.
PATRIOTIC JUDGES MUST RULE AGAINST THESE SOCIETY DAMAGING DECISIONS
Americans must elect or appoint then support trial, appellate and state supreme court judges throughout our country who will ignore all of these rulings and force every party that objects to go directly to the the United States Supreme Court. Make these Supreme Court justices be directly accountable for their decisions in every case not the lower courts’ judges. Will this cause chaos in our judicial system? Perhaps. But certainly no more chaotic than the real-world dystopia the right-wing justices are creating now caused by these outrageous, indefensible, ideological, partisan, injudicious and sometimes unconstitutional decisions forced upon and opposed by a majority of the American people.
