SCOTUS Fire

Let me explain what is actually happening with the left calling the current Supreme Court "rogue." I have four kids. When one of them does their chores, I give them a piece of candy. When my three-year-old sees that and loses his mind screaming "IT'S NOT FAIR," he is not making a legal argument. He is making a FEELINGS argument. He does not care about the chores. He just wants the candy. That is Quinn's Law #26 in a Halloween costume: liberals love the courts UNTIL the decision does not go their way. Here is something the dim bulbs on the left conveniently forget. Republican-appointed justices have disappointed conservatives REPEATEDLY. Gorsuch — TRUMP'S OWN PICK — sided with liberals on LGBTQ employment cases. Roberts saved the ACA. TWICE. Let that land. Sandra Day O'Connor preserved Roe in 1992. Reagan appointee. That happens because those justices are actually doing their job: applying the law to the text, NOT reverse-engineering the outcome they want. When have you EVER seen a Democrat-appointed justice deliver a ruling that disappointed Democrats? I'll wait. That silence you hear? That is not a coincidence. That is the tell. A court that never surprises you is not a court. It is a PR department with gavels. The left has that. They built it on purpose. And NOW — because they do not have it at the Supreme Court level — the whole institution is suddenly "illegitimate." FDR tried this in 1937. His OWN PARTY killed the court-packing scheme in committee. They called it what it was. Let that sink in: even Democrats in 1937 recognized naked power grabs when they saw them. The left does not want a Supreme Court. They want a super-legislature with lifetime tenure that ratifies whatever Congress failed to deliver. The Constitution is just an obstacle between them and what they want. And when that obstacle holds, they call it rogue. My three-year-old also calls things unfair when I enforce bedtime. He is three. What is their excuse? But what do I know — I am only a science teacher who actually read the Federalist Papers, including No. 78, where Hamilton called the judiciary "the least dangerous branch," not the most convenient one."
