Democrats Ramp Up Efforts To Delegitimize Supreme Court7 Mar 2023 ~~ By Aaron Flanigan
Democrats Ramp Up Efforts to Delegitimize Supreme Court
The left’s longstanding war on the U.S. Supreme Court appears to be reaching alarming new heights raising the stakes for election year.amac.us
The left’s longstanding war on the U.S. Supreme Court appears to be reaching alarming new heights—raising the stakes for a contentious election year in which Democrats are poised to ramp up their calls to pack the Court, smear Republican-appointed justices, and provoke a judicial legitimacy crisis that could have dire implications for the rule of law and the separation of powers.
The left’s escalation of their anti-Court crusade began in late February when the justices agreed to hear arguments pertaining to former President Donald Trump’s claim to immunity from criminal prosecution. Following the release of the Court’s February 28 order indicating that the justices would take up Trump’s request—which could potentially undermine Jack Smith’s legal persecution of the former president—Democrats and anti-Trump Republicans predictably flew into a fit of rage.

To anyone who values the separation of powers, the rule of law, and the American constitutional order itself, these attempts to delegitimize the Court and strip it of its institutional integrity are jarring and dangerous. And although Democrats will almost certainly attempt to downplay their desires to expand the Court as campaign season ramps up ahead of the November election, voters should not be fooled.
Commentary:
Excellent article. No surprise that democrats want to stack the U.S. Supreme Court so it will be one sided.
Even Dictator Beijing biden is too Chicken to accept Challenge for Presidential Debate anywhere, anytime by President Trump.
Can you imagine the U.S. Supreme Court only having democrats who will play politics from the Bench who will be funded by Soros who protects criminals and democrats only?
Democrats Neo-Marxists marxists hate the Constitution and it's Amendments of the USA because it limits their power over the PEOPLE.
It's time for "We The People" to stand up and delegitimize Democrats and MSM.
America will become another Venezuela if Joe Biden and jis cabal are reelected and remains in power, the Supreme Court will become under their complete control. That will be the end of justice in America.
We all want to know when Democrats are done “saving democracy” from the voter.

Frustrated by string of conservative wins, Democrats go all out to delegitimize U.S. Supreme Court
Supreme Court rulings have in recent years have managed to overturn decades-long practices and even long-standing precedents that favored left-wing politics. The same party who claimed that conservatives' disrespect American institutions are now doing exactly that.

Far from an isolated incident, Supreme Court rulings have in recent years have managed to overturn decades-long practices and even long-standing precedents that favored left-wing politics. Said decisions have set off a firestorm of criticisms against the court as an institution, both of its power and ideological leaning, as well as the justices themselves. The Democrats and left-wing activists have expanded public criticism of the justices, formerly a rare occurrence, and have pursued legislative curbs on the court while some justices have even seen journalists release of private recordings of their conversations.
Conservative court wins
Apart from the bump stock case on Friday, the current court has handed down a number of landmark cases, most notably the Dobbs v. Jackson decision in 2022 that overturned the constitutional precedent establishing a federal right to abortion set in Roe v. Wade and returned the authority to regulate the procedure to the states.
One year later, the court ruled against the use of race in college admissions in cases brought by Students for Fair Admissions against Harvard and the University of North Carolina. Chief Justice John Roberts wrote for the majority, saying “Many universities ... have concluded, wrongly, that the touchstone of an individual’s identity is not challenges bested, skills built, or lessons learned but the color of their skin. Our constitutional history does not tolerate that choice.”

Politicizing the court as an institution
President Joe Biden, for his part, has consistently criticized and questioned his disfavored rulings, repeatedly suggesting that the court had acted in an unusual manner.
"This is not a normal court,” he said last year in the wake of the affirmative action ruling. "While the court can render a decision, it cannot change what America stands for,” he also said. He later told MSNBC that the court had "done more to unravel basic rights and basic decisions than any court in recent history."
He further fumed over the Dobbs decision, saying at the time that it represented "the culmination of a deliberate effort over decades to upset the balance of our law” and that the decision was “a realization of an extreme ideology and a tragic error by the Supreme Court."
In the wake of the landmark gun control decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, moreover, Biden said it “contradicts both common sense and the Constitution, and should deeply trouble us all."

the Democrats are not a monolithic entity. In 2022, some House Democrats began to openly push for legislation that would add four additional seats to the bench, contending that the GOP had already engaged in court packing with its handling of prior vacancies and Trump’s nominees. “The nightmare scenario of GOP court-packing is already upon us… That’s how they got this far-right 6-3 majority in the first place,” Rep. Mondaire Jones, D-N.Y., said at the time.
That effort went nowhere, however, and polling data from the Florida-based Mason-Dixon Polling & Strategy last year suggested that 68% of Americans opposed such an effort while only 25% supported it, including 44% of Democrats.
Commentary:
The low tier Federal courts are the ones that need to be dissolved. That bozos are atrocious. politically appointed judges clinging to their ideology rather than seeking justice legislate from the bench.
Then there's the present administration of hucksters, shysters and failed ambulance chasers delegitimized when the vote counts were tampered with around the country, i.e, Marc Elais formerly of Perkins Coie.
ICYMI, Critical Race Theory effectively delegitimizes both our State and federal governments, because the constitutions establishing those governments were supposedly the work of racists focused on oppressing anyone who wasn’t ‘white’.
What is illegitimate is announcing a “Constitutional” right that is nowhere stated in the Constitution, and going into great detail describing the “right” that is not found in the Constitution. Then, claiming that the Dobbs decision, which put the abortion question back to the representative State legislatures, constitutes a “Threat to our Democracy.”
