Let's Talk About the Jugurthine War

By Rich Kozlovich

 

What prompted this article was an outstanding article by Andrea Widburg on American Thinker, DC judges let Chief Justice Roberts know that Donald Trump is a bad dude, saying:

The Federal District Court for the District of Columbia has been a safe haven for Democrats, with the justices there willing repeatedly to favor plaintiffs who have filed suits against the Trump administration. Margot Cleveland obtained a memo from a federal judicial conference held this past March showing that the DC judges are actively hostile to Donald Trump and want to ensure the Supreme Court shares that hostility. This behavior crashes into the federal canons governing judges, as well as into the reality of Trump’s conduct. 

 Andrea then goes on to outline who they are and how they're corrupting the judicial canons and the invertebracy of Chief Justice of the Supreme Court Roberts.  An outstanding article to say the least, and again, more reason for a 28th Amendment for age and term limits to the federal judiciary. They’re out of control, and the Congress has failed to use their Constitutional authority to rein them in.

So, let's talk about King Jugurtha of Numidia and the Jugurthine War. Never heard of that? Imagine that.  Chuckling...yeah well neither did I until I was doing some research on Julius Cesare and stumbled on to it.   Jugurtha murdered family members to become king, and bribed Roman officials, including Senators to let him get away with it.  He bribed military officers to prevent being defeated, and this went on for years with these officials happily taking their money and looking away.  Finally the public outcry over all this was so massive it forced Rome to act.

This story exposes the massive corruption that was so Roman, so vile, and so ubiquitous triggering so many civil wars in Rome's history.   I don't think most realize how corrupt and unstable Roman government was for all of it's existence.    

This kind of corruption was rampant during the three Obama terms impacting the military, the administration, and the judiciary, with Obamaites appointing federal judges for 12 years.  Twelve out of the last 17 years filling the federal judiciary with corrupt and incompetent political hacks,   All of whom are have been epitomized by Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson who should sitting on is a park bench, not a judicial bench.

The exposure of that corruption has been the justification for the purges going on in both the military and the administrative branches of government, but the judiciary is out of control and uncontrollable.  We need term limits as getting a two thirds vote for an impeachment conviction is impossible.

Definition leads to clarity, history is everything, and the patterns of life repeat over and over again.  I think this story is useful as this kind of corruption is now in play with the federal judiciary, and it's uncontrolled, putting their own values and agenda ahead of the Constitution, Congressional legislation, Executive privileges, their oath of office, and destroying the rule of law, which is destabilizing the nation.  It's time to stop looking the other way, it's time for a massive public outcry, and a Jugurthine War, i.e., a 28th Amendment.

I will be using this historical reference in the future. Think how China was allowed to buy advanced computer systems from the US, how N. Korea got nuclear arms, how Iran was given billions and was on the verge of a nuclear bomb, and who was responsible for that. 

SCOTUS and Their Pompous Petulant Pontificator

By Rich Kozlovich

My go to news site first thing in the morning is American Thinker, which I think is the absolutely best new site out there, they've even published one of my articles in the past.  There are a lot of articles appearing at AT by a large number of volunteer contributors, but they only have a few paid staff members, who on every Saturday different members of the AT writing staff put out a "Members Weekly Newsletter".  There are times these pieces are so good I wished they'd publish them on line.

One such article is by Mike McDaniel entitled, It was always clear that Justice Jackson would be a disaster, but she's worse than anyone could have anticipated.

Biden committed himself to a DEI nominee, and a black woman fit the bill, who could easily have been called a "mediocre" left wing ideologue right from the beginning.  A left wing ideologue totally unconcerned with reality, or the law starting, out with her exchange with Republican Senators who asked her to define what a woman was.  She couldn't.  Why?  She's not a biologist was her answer.  But they all failed to drive a stake into the heart of her nomination when they all failed to ask her if she was a woman.  As Mike notes the answer to that question might have ended her nomination.  

It  was apparent her understanding of Constitutional law is abysmal after Senator Ted Cruz asked her to take a position on that which is foundational to the Constitution, Natural Rights.  

After doing what all these Biden nominees have done consistently, answering questions not asked, over and over again, finally Cruz asked if she held a position on Natural Rights, yes or no.

She answered saying she held no position on Natural Rights.  Well that's foundation to the very existence of Constitution, and for any law student to have no opinion is impossible, but for a federal jurist, and one being nominated to be a Supreme Court Justice, that's not just impossible, it's a deliberate lie.  A lie in an attempt to avoid exposing the fact she's not a jurist, she's a radical left wing ideologue and an activist.

• The judicial tyranny of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson 'Why bother with the Supreme Court? Let's just take a poll'

Recently Justice Amy Coney Barrett smacked her hard and heavy dealing with birthright citizenship, something rarely done on the court, if ever.   Then she had to be schooled by ... of all people... Sotomayor on the President's legitimate Constitutional Article II powers as the chief executive with the authority to hire, and fire.  She claimed allowing him to do that would open the door to an Imperial Presidency, saying:

Eventually, executive power will become completely uncontainable, and our beloved constitutional Republic will be no more.....

Well, that's the job for the Legislative branch to address, not the judiciary.  

But the interesting thing is not one of the jurists took exception to Justice Amy Coney Barrett smack down, and Mike explains why.  She's an enormous pain in the butt.   Instead of asking questions for clarification she babbles on "mindlessly" and according to Mike:

Canny court watchers have noted the annoyance of the wiser justices at Brown Jackson's loud-mouthed antics.

I have to imagine when the Justices meet privately as a group to discuss issues her penchant for mindless rambling is almost unbearable.  Over the years I've served on boards of my industry's trade associations, and had that kind of babbling go on to the point I would get up and walk out of the room until they were done, and then they would start all over again, it become unbearable.   But they didn't serve on those boards for life, a SCOTUS justice does, how unbearable that must be.

As a side bar.  Who has consistently been the justice who asks the fewest questions and comments the least?  Justice Clearance Thomas, who I consider the finest justice to sit on the court in my lifetime.

She thinks the federal judiciary should be able to impose universal injunctions against the Executive at the district level, requiring both the Executive and the Legislative branches to acquiesce their Constitutional authority to unelected minor judges.   She claims she fears an Imperial Presidency that will destroy "democracy" but has no concerns about an Imperial Judiciary that really is destroying democracy by destroying the rule of law.   An Imperial Judiciary where her feelings are far more important than the laws written by Congress and anything written in that dusty old document called the United States Constitution.  

Mike ends his article with this paragraph:  

Brown Jackson's petulance in these two most recent cases suggests Kagan and Sotomayor realize Brown Jackson is not up to the minimum level of competence required of the Court and are no longer going to try to keep her blazing incompetence and leftism under the radar. She's too overtly leftist even for them.

Sotomayor apparently thinks Jackson is blazingly incompetent?  How shocking is that?  Jackson is arrogant, pompous, petulant, and grossly incompetent, and ya just can't fix stupid.  But when you put a person with those combined qualities in a position of power,  they're unbearable.  Ketanji Brown Jackson is another excellent example of why there needs to be a 28th Amendment to fix the Founders gravest error.  Lifetime appointments to the federal judiciary. 

I've written much about the federal judiciary, along with age and term limits, some of which are listed below. 

My 28th Amendment Commentaries: 

1. What if We Could Rewrite the Constitution To Fix the Republic
2. It's Time For a Twenty Eighth Amendment!

Trump, the Federal Judiciary, and The Government of the United States

By Rich Kozlovich

Since there's all this foofaraw about the federal courts setting themselves up as mini Presidents, and the recent SCOTUS ruling telling them they're not, I think this chart is important.  

 

As Jeffrey Tucker notes in his article The Curbing of the Administrative State regarding the SCOTUS ruling: 

The opinion could not be plainer: “Universal injunctions likely exceed the equitable authority that Congress has given to federal courts.” That principle applies not only to this case but to the whole panoply of cases that have tethered the ability of the president to manage executive branch operations. The courts have presumed authority over the president that the Constitution plainly does not grant.

He goes on to state the government as it's been configured is in effect contrary to the intent of the Constitution.  The elected officials are supposed to be in charge, not unelected bureaucrats saying: 

The answer has been hiding in plain sight all this time. It took a dramatic and domestic exercise of administrative power, one that hit us all our lives personally, to reveal the extent of the problem. It comes down to the approximately 425 agencies with millions of permanent employees that are the real government in the United States........In 2014, just two years before Trump’s first term, the scholar Philip Hamburger wrote “Is Administrative Law Unlawful?” His argument was that this machinery does not exist in the Constitution. There is no such thing as an agency that is independent of presidential control................

All these court issues are predicated on the fact Trump is exposing to the America people how corrupt it all has become,  which is the lesson he learned after his first term after being stabbed in the back by people who were disloyal, and bureaucrats who undermined everything he was attempting to do.  So he issued executive orders and triggered a fight that was long overdue.  

The chart shows who in charge of the federal government, and it's not the legislature, and it's not the judiciary.  It's the Chief Executive, and that's the President of the United States. 

Harry Truman flew to Wake Island to confront Douglas MacArthur over their differences regarding the Korean War, and protocol demanded MacArthur stand at the stairs to greet the President of the United State.  He didn't, and that went on for 45 minutes.  Finally when they were alone he told MacArthur, and I'm paraphrasing here, "I don't care what you think about Harry Truman, but don't you ever disrespect the President of the United States that way again. "

Well, that's Trump's view of reality.  He doesn't much care what you think about Donald Trump, but they're not gong to get away with disrespecting and disregarding the President of the United States.  

Unfortunately, the battle is far from over, just as one district judge Brian Murphy openly defied the court refusing to follow the ruling of the Supreme Court, there are two other ways these radical leftist judges and attorneys can subvert the ruling an the obvious intent of the Constitution.  Class action lawsuits, which normally aren't so easy to bring into being, but if the jurists are corrupt, and we already know a bunch of them are, that will not be a deterrent, since like Ketanji Brown Jackson, they could care less about the rule of law.  However, the  Administrative Procedure Act of 1946 will clearly be problematic, as the wording is an open ended invitation for abuse by district courts, and is an issue either the Congress, SCOTUS, or both will be forced to address.  Make no mistake, this is far from over.

Let's Talk About Hannah Dugan, and a Judiciary That's Out of Control

By Rich Kozlovich

 

There's been a big uproar over Wisconsin state judge Hannah Dugan over her being arrested by the federal government for her complicity in aiding and abetting the escape of an illegal alien, one with a criminal record.  

First, unlike some claims ICE didn't' barge into her courtroom.  They waited in the hall for the case before Dugan and this criminal to be over before arresting him.  When she found out she huffed and puffed her way out into the hall and chastising them demanding what right they had to arrest this man without an arrest warrant, and to gain time to aid his escape:

......she instructed the agents to obtain a judicial warrant for Ruiz's arrest, which bought time, ultimately leading to the great escape. Federal agents later caught Ruiz, and Judge Dugan was arrested later.

An administrative warrant isn't the same as an arrest warrant.  But, when observing someone committing a crime the police are arresting people daily without a warrant, and if someone is here illegally, by their very presence they're committing a crime, in point of fact, a felony, and since she helped him to escape, that's a crime, and it's punishable by law:

Per 8 U.S.C. § 1324:........(1)(A) Any person who—.........(iii) knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that an alien has come to, entered, or remains in the United States in violation of law, conceals, harbors, or shields from detection, or attempts to conceal, harbor, or shield from detection, such alien in any place, including any building or any means of transportation;.........shall be punished as provided in subparagraph (B).

According to subparagraph (B), the consequences are steep: Since Dugan presumably acted not for financial gain, which could mean up to 10 years in prison, but for other reasons (e.g., fighting imaginary “Nazis”), she faces fines or up to five years in prison, or both.

April 28, 2025 by Silvio Canto, Jr. writes instead of enforcing the nation's laws judges are acting like immigration activists.  Through their decisions and actions they are in effect writing de facto new immigration "laws".  Unwritten laws based on their personal morality.  Laws no legislature in the nation ever passed.  And in Wisconsin Hannah Dugan isn't an anomaly, she's part of a philosophical cabal, as another Milwaukee County judge joins rebellion.  After all, these laws were written by some old white guys in some dusty old document from the 18th century, and they're far more noble and far wiser being guided by a higher cause.  So, in the universal leftist mind set, that justifies viewing laws actually passed by Congress as meaningless, and can be ignored, and even usurped.   Isn't that a form of insurrection?  Just a thought.

 

Only the Trump administration disagrees.  AG Bondi intends to prosecute these judges who are in violation federal law in their attempt to obstruct the efforts of the Trump administration.  And she needs to look at the governors of these states also.

What's been the reaction from the left? While touting the phrase, “no one is above the law", which no Democrat really believes when it comes to .... well.... Democrats, and those criminals they wish to protect.  Dem Rep. Moore says a judge’s control is ‘bigger, and that “jurists ought to be able to have control of their courtroom, and localities should not be pressured into executing and assisting ICE, and I think that’s the bigger question.”   What a load of clabber, and when asked if Judge Dugan should be required to follow the law she evades answering with more clabber:

“Well, you know what, this is not fair to ask me that question, because she has not had her day in court yet to litigate and to defend herself vigorously, which I think she will do. What you’re asking me to do is…to sort of not go along with what I believe is — because I think that ICE ought to operate and they ought to do it clearly, outside of her — not outside her courtroom, but maybe on the street, where they arrested him on the street was the appropriate place. They should not even have been in the courthouse as far as I’m concerned. And so, to say that they can arrest you in the cafeteria of the hospital, but not in your hospital room, this is slicing and dicing it in such a way where the Justice Department is determined to intimidate the judiciary. And I think that we need to fight back.”

It's interesting, that's not the way they viewed the staged arrests by the FBI of Trump supporters in recent years with swat team early morning arrests of totally non-violent old men forcing a hand cuffed perp walk with the Pravda media there waiting to film it.    

 

Milwaukee’s mayor, Cavalier Johnson, says it's just wrong for Trump to enforce the law and to  scare innocent illegal aliens, implying what Dugan did was the right thing to do.   Did he actually say "innocent illegal aliens"?  If they're here illegally, they're not innocent, they're criminals.  

It appears the entire body of government in Wisconsin is infected with this insanity, as Wisconsin Rep.: Dugan says, what Hannah Dugan did is "what all of us will be called to do in the days and weeks and months to come, and it’s standing up for people in our community that are being targeted by the Trump regime”, and Wisconsin's lawless governor issues guidelines to shield illegal aliens from ICE agents. 

Democrats chose a hill to die on—they will defend the last violent, human-trafficking Central American gangbanger escape from ICE no matter what the cost. According to documents leaked by conservative radio host Dan O'Donnell, a Department of Administration (DOA) memo dated April 18 lays out explicit steps for Wisconsin state workers to follow when ICE agents arrive at government buildings. Instead of cooperating with federal immigration enforcement, employees are being told to stonewall — refuse to answer questions, deny access to files, and even demand agents leave if no attorney is available.

What about Democrat governors around the nation?  Arizona Gov. Hobbs has vetoed a  bill that requires the police to cooperate with ICE, which matters little because there's federal law that requires state law enforcement to cooperate, and at some point I'm convinced the Trump administration will start invoking and enforcing that law, which means legislators, governors, and law enforcement people might be arrested.   Governors like Illinois Governor JB Pritzker who declares “The State of Illinois will Stand Up for the Rule of Law”.

Then we have that giant intellect, Chris Christie, who says while Judge Dugan over stepped her bounds, but she shouldn't be put in jail.  Over stepped her bounds? So that's what it's called with someone helps criminals to escape law enforcement?  Remarkable!

 

Then there's Judge Andrew Napolitano, who went over to the dark side years ago, says Trump overreached with this arrest, calling it a, ‘Jihad Against Judges’, decrying administrative warrants, and saying he thinks this judge has immunity.  Well, that's not a universal view, and apparently she also thinks she's not immune since Dugan has added a former Bush solicitor general to her high priced defense team.  Who's funding that?

Jonathan Turley seems to think it's "out-of-control judges, not FBI, appear to have crossed 'red line', and a black robe doesn't make one immune from the rule of law".   A Yale law professor thinks the arrest is legitimate.  The Wisconsin state Supreme Court, a very liberal court, has temporarily pulled this judge from the bench, with former Governor Scott Walker saying:  "It is time for the members of the Wisconsin State Legislature to vote to remove her from office."

The complaint is the Trump administration is doing this to send a message.  Good, and in point of fact, Congress Should Expand Scope of Expedited Removals to Include Mass Deportation.

As for calling this arrest a "jihad against the judiciary", here's who threw down the gauntlet.  

1. 220 lawsuits in 100 Days: Trump Administration Faces Unprecedented Legal Blitz
2. Biden-Appointed Judge Blocks Border Patrol from Arresting Suspected Illegal Aliens Without Warrants    
3. Exclusive—Reps. Jim Jordan & Brian Mast: Rogue Judges Are Out to Stop Trump’s America First Agenda 
4. Another Stops Trump from Ending Taxpayer-Funded Lawyers for Migrants

This is a battle that's been long overdue, and now that gauntlet has been picked up by an administration willing to do battle.  

One more thing.  It's long past time former Biden and Obama administration officials faced the consequences for the crimes they committed while in office, including Mayorkas! For murder.

Voter ID and The Constitution

By Rich Kozlovich

On April 26, 2025  James Fite posted this article at Liberty Nation News, Voter ID: Where the President, the People and the Constitution Stand, saying "popular doesn’t necessarily equal constitutional".

He goes on to explain:

DC District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly  ruled that states don’t have to make voters show ID at the polls or show proof of citizenship to register. Trump is a fan of voter ID requirements, and so are most Americans, according to polling. But if the Constitution doesn’t support that position, then neither public opinion nor the president’s order makes it legal.

First, the DC District is filled with leftist political hacks, and she's one of them.  He then goes on to point out the Constitution defines the rules governing the federal government's role in national elections quoting the first paragraph of Article I, Section 4 which reads:

“The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Places of chusing Senators.”

He went on to explain:

Each state is explicitly granted the authority to determine when, where, and how US senators and representatives are elected. Then there’s an exception to that authority: Congress can legislate it at any time (well, all except the polling places). Note the lack of authorization for a president to override the states. The federal government can step in, but it has to be through the standard legislative process ......

He goes on to justify Judge Kollar-Kotelly's ruling noting there's nothing in the Constitution that allows the President to short circuit the legislative process, and she's right, but since when did that matter to the judiciary?  All of a sudden the leftist hacks in the federal judiciary are in love with the actual wording in the Constitution, incapable of seeing any penumbras or emanations of the Constitution to justify the President imposing voter ID on the states.  

Penumbras and emanations of the Constitution is a concept created by the judiciary, that also appears nowhere in the Constitution, but it allows them to bypass the legislative process in order find imaginary rights in order to impose laws on the nation no one passed, like the abortion, and the Chevron decisions.  It's kinda like how Hollywood twists inconvenient history in their movies with the attitude, "if it didn't happen that way, it should have".  

Yet, clearly it was the intent of the Founding Fathers that only citizens should be allowed to vote.  So, why wouldn't that justify taking the position the President was merely enforcing an unwritten law.  An unwritten law that was an obvious and understood unwritten law.  An unwritten law that didn't need to be written through the legislative process? 

Andrea posted this article in 2021, Clarence Thomas identifies the greatest danger in America, saying :

Article III of the Constitution of the United States establishes a “supreme Court.” .........While Art III limits somewhat the nature of the cases the Supreme Court may hear, it does not impose any checks or balances on the Supreme Court’s power.  Then, in 1803, Chief Justice John Marshall extended the Court’s power, holding that Article III’s grant of authority inevitably gave the Court the power to overturn unconstitutional legislation. The result is a Supreme Court that has freely rewritten the Constitution to achieve political ends—and turned the Court itself from what should be a neutral judicial institution into one that has become the partisan center of D.C.

The Constitution gave Justice Marshall no such authority. The Constitution says the jurisdiction of the federal judiciary is in the hands of the Congress, not the Supreme Court. 

The public is hugely in favor of Voter ID with 98% of Republican, 84% of independents and 67% of Democrats in support.  Five states already require it, another 40 are considering doing so, and currently there's legislation introduced by Rep. Chip Roy of Texas that's passed the House called "The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act", that's in the Senate.  But it must meet the 60-vote threshold to get voted on.  Why 60 votes?  

In 1975, the Senate reduced the number of votes required for cloture from two-thirds of senators voting to three-fifths of all senators duly chosen and sworn, or 60 of the current 100 senators. Today, filibusters remain a part of Senate practice, although only on legislation.

Will it pass the Senate?  Who knows?  If all 53 Republicans sign on, including Murkowski, Collins, Mitch McConnell, which is iffy, that would take seven Democrats to cross over.  Given the mental and moral unfitness of so many Republicans in the Senate, I don't think it can happen unless at least a minimum of ten Democrats cross over, and I really don't see that happening.

So, why is it the courts can't find even one little penumbra or tiny emanation to justify Trump's policy?  Because  the federal judiciary is rife with incompetent, not very bright, corrupt political hacks who can't be fired.  That's what needs changing.

The Judiciary is Out of Control: SCOTUS

By Rich Kozlovich

I have a massive number of drafts in my files, and I try to organize them topically by way of gazettes, and that included the judiciary, which is out of control.  On April 13th I published My Judiciary Gazette, organized by - resistance to Trump, judicial corruption and lawfare, immigration, judicial overreach, DOGE, hiring and firing, control of funding, purging the deep state bureaucracies including the military, tariffs, and I keep adding updates.  This is like a daytime nightmare that lingers and grows.  So, I've decided to separate all of this, starting with SCOTUS.

You will find there are only two real justices on the Supreme Court, Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito.  Three are outright leftist political hacks and four are seriously confused legal hacks, including Chief Justice Roberts.

Is it any wonder the public's trust in the Judiciary is plummeting? 

 

 

The American Judiciary is facing a crisis of confidence as public outrage swells over federal judges’ repeated interventions in President Donald Trump’s agenda.  In just the past few days, rulings blocking foreign aid freezes, personnel shakeups, and terrorist deportations have sparked a firestorm, with social media erupting in accusations of bias, corruption, and judicial overreach.  At the center of the storm: Chief Justice John Roberts, whose rare public statement today defending the courts has only deepened the divide.............

If Congress doesn't step and and put this to a stop, we're fast reaching the Jacksonian solution, they make their judgement, now let them enforce it.

The Judiciary is in Serious Need of Restraint

The Judiciary and America's Third Revolution: Part III

By Rich Kozlovich, Tags: 

We already know the federal judiciary is filled with not very bright political hacks who think they are the real legislative and executive branches of government, not the Congress and most assuredly not the President of the United States.  All of which is promoted in the nation's law schools.   What's worse, their seditious and treasonous concepts are like a contagious disease, so when the federal judiciary can pervert, subvert, and ignore the Constitution, why shouldn't the state's courts?

On February 7, 2024 Hawaii's Supreme Court issued a decision saying that the U.S. Supreme Court’s Bruen (2022) does not surpass Hawaii’s constitution, which recognizes “no state constitutional right to carry a firearm in public.”  The decision came in Hawaii v. Wilson, a case in which Wilson is seeking recognition of his right to carry a gun in public for self-defense without first acquiring a permit from the state.... 

Their Supreme Court's ruling totally ignores Supreme Court decisions on the Second Amendment deciding they don't apply to Hawaii!  Why?   Because there's "no state constitutional right to carry a firearm"!  They've claimed “Conventional interpretive modalities", whatever the heck that means, shows there is no historical right to bear arms, and all this silly “founding era’s understanding of the Constitution" is meaningless.  

So, this insurrectionist court is in effect throwing the Constitution out the door, stating there's no reason for "contemporary society to pledge allegiance to the founding era’s culture, realities, laws, and understanding of the Constitution", because it is in conflict with the "Spirit of Aloha", whatever the heck that means!  It appears the court believes people have no right to bear arms in order to protect themselves from the "deadly aims of others".   Is it any wonder they believe the Spirit of Aloha is in conflict with the Bill of Rights. 

Secessionists?  Really?  C'mon man, that's irrational.  No, it's history, and it's reality.   On January 11, 2024, a month before this decision, Daniel Greenfield published this piece,

Communist Lawyers Sue to Create a Secessionist Monarchy in Hawaii, calling for an end to the U.S. occupation of Hawaii and the restoration of the Hawaiian Kingdom, which bears "a certain irony in a former Communist front group fighting to create a secessionist Hawaiian monarchy out of a republic. But as Stalin told his mother, “I am the new czar”'.

People are what they do, and what these rogue judges are doing is flat out radical insurrection, and they need to be called to account for the what I consider the criminal damage they're doing.   It's time Congress got nasty and started overturning these insane decisions, and create a law that can impose criminal sanctions of judges who are openly, or subtly, destroying the rule of law.   Again, the nation is in serious need of a 28th Amendment.

Observations From the Back Row

By Rich Kozlovich

 

Since FDR there's been this touchstone for accomplishment called the first 100 days.  Well, Trump has been President for 84 days, and what he's accomplished in that short time has been by far greater than any administration in history, and will go down in history as the most effective 100 days, while facing the most resistance to any President in history, including FDR.

 

The Democrat party is full of people suffering from a serious case of weird compounded by a massive infection of hubris. Universally deluged with big egos, bad attitudes, uncontrolled pettiness, unparalleled incompetence, unbounded arrogance, ignorance without parameters, intrepid stupidity beyond measure. 

The big difference between the resistance FDR faced and what Trump is facing is the Democrat party was still the "loyal" resistance, but no longer.  There's a reason they're called the party of treason, and it's because they are, and just like all the leftist dictators that ever lived they're doing everything to corrupt the rule of law to destroy Trump and all who subscribe to the traditional social paradigms that are foundational to American culture. 

Before the election they corrupted the rule of law, commonly called "lawfare", to prevent him from running for President.  That failed.  After the election the "lawfare" continued to in an attempt prevent him from ending the corruption of the vast administrative state.  That's failing and there's going to be some long term kickback over this corruption.

• Conservatives Shut out by ‘Big Law’ Have Little Sympathy as Firms Face Major Upset Under Trump

Finally it's gotten so outrageous it's causing the Congress to finally exercise their constitutional right to reign in these corrupt political hacks who've appointed to the federal judiciary.  But make no mistake, it will not stop.   Another Federal Judge Orders USDA to unfreeze funding to Maine as trans athletes dispute continues.  And again, the Trump administration intends to go forward with terminating Maine’s federal K-12 funding over this issue, and in the end, they'll win.   At some point I believe Trump may just say this is not within their Constitutional purview and take the Jacksonian view to openly defy their rulings.  

These are judges who seem to think was perfectly reasonable to shut down churches over this false covid pandemic, but it violates some imaginary constitution right when raided for harboring illegal immigrants.   There is no "Horns of the Alter" provision in the Constitution. 

One really big thing in his favor is it's becoming abundantly clear no matter how much the left rants and screams about these DOGE investigations,  DOGE keeps finding corruption and outrageous spending that has gone on at levels that is far beyond anything the so-called ''Conspiracy theorists" believed in, all of which the American public is shocked at.... on a daily basis..... and who believe the federal judiciary needs to be reigned in. 

• Illegal Immigrants on Terror Watchlist Received Medicaid, Unemployment Insurance: DOGE Many of them also received student loans, tax refunds, and food stamps, according to the Department of Government Efficiency. 

The left has screamed about freedom of speech forever, mostly based on the fact sane people don't want to hear what they're saying, but we now know it's all hypocrisy.  They hate freedom of speech that resists the latest leftist narrative of the moment, such as the idea that men can claim to be women, and women must accept it. Female students at George Mason University  are being punished for daring to question the right of men who claim to be women using women’s restrooms.  And even worse if female athletes dare to question the idea men can compete with women in sports. 

One profile in courage is female fencer Stephanie Turner, who "refused to fence against a man pretending to be a woman, and was "black- carded—fencing’s most serious sanction--and in an act of spite, tournament officials ejected her from the venue..... Turner knew her refusal to fence men would badly damage her ability to compete."  And why does USA Fencing support this fallacy?  According to their fencing coach, these trans need a “athletes a sense of belonging and a will to live is more powerful than medals and competitive glory.”

 

So, the purpose of sport is to give mentally ill men “a sense of belonging and a will to live?” Sport, particularly fencing, has nothing to do with “medals and competitive glory?” 

This isn't going to go away, and while there are no federal funds involved, they may lose their accreditation as "they are the National Governing Body (NGB) for the sport in the United States........the organization must comply with federal law........or risk losing (NGB) status........."  Have no doubt this needs fixed or they will destroy women's sports......Two Dudes Will Compete in National Fencing WOMEN’S Championship

There seems to be one court that has it's head on right.  The North Carolina Supreme Court Rules Most of the 65,000 Questionable Ballots Must Count in Hotly Contested Judicial Race.  Voter fraud is still a massive problem, and that must be the focus of conservatives.  A matter of lawfare in reverse, only having their facts in place, and it can be done with AI, just as DOGE has shown in their investigations.   

So much of all this starts with education and the leftist corruption of thought in our universities, and America is now all in on ending funding for these corrupt institution, especially those who've supported radical antisemites who aren't even Americans, but jihadists who hate America, Jews, Christianity, and western culture, and who, just like the Taliban believe this kind of violence is foundational to Islam.    The intifada in Germany claims another victim, and while it’s true not all Muslims are violent, but the fact is those who are swim in a sea of acceptance.  

• The Maximum Support Act: A bipartisan push for Iranian democracy and human rights

There's been a lot of kickback regarding regarding Pam Bondi and Kash Patel as to when  are we going to start seeing arrests:

 

But what truly caught fire online was the growing frustration from conservative grassroots. One user, reflecting the sentiments of millions of Americans sick of the two-tiered justice system, posted an image of high-profile Obama-era officials with the simple caption: “When is accountability coming for these people?”

1. Barack Obama – President during the weaponization of intelligence agencies.
2. James Clapper – DNI who misled Congress.
3. John Brennan – CIA Director who allegedly politicized intelligence.
4. James Comey – FBI Director at the helm of the Russia hoax.
5. Sally Yates and Loretta Lynch – Key DOJ officials during the anti-Trump operations.
6. Andrew McCabe, Peter Strzok, Lisa Page, Bruce and Nellie Ohr, Andrew Weissmann, James Baker, and Stefan Halper – a cast of deep-state actors and informants involved in surveillance, leaks, and disinformation.

Well, the President has been in office a mere 84 days, Bondi has been there 71 and Patel 62 days, with both of them having to purge their departments massively.  Given the massive levels of corruption that the FBI and the DOJ must investigate, I don't know how they could possibly meet everyone's expectations.   First, they have to fire a host of people at the FBI and the DOJ, and then replace them with first rate, real law and order agents and prosecutors.  That's time consuming, and I have no doubt the hours they're putting in to accomplish that is draining, emotionally, physically, and intellectually.  Investigations take time, and putting together documentation and witnesses for this cases that will be effective is time consuming, if they actually want convictions.  

 

For the time being they merit a benefit of the doubt.  What I expect seeing is a "bit's and pieces" theme, such as  this Corrupt FBI Official Behind Russiagate and Hunter Biden’s Laptop Cover-Up FINALLY Placed on Administrative Leave, but these "bits and pieces" will expand and grow, but it takes time, and these investigations are going to work their way up the ladder, Russia Collusion Doc Drop: Why Did Crooked Hillary’s Lawyers Meet With the FBI Guy Who Started the Fake Probe?, all the more reason to take the time to do it right.

 

As we've watched the Obama and Biden administrations destroy the quality of the senior officers in the military it's stunning to realize the rest of the military wasn't on board, watch what happens when plans for restoration for Jesus painting at the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy.  Is that a theme playing out at all the military academies?  I don't know, but we're going to see the end of racial preferences in admissions at all of them, and I expect to see a serious change in attitude, especially as all these senior military Woke/DEI personnel Obama and Biden put in place are fired. 

 

Finally, this piece is really worth your time: 10 Environmentalist Myths.  We are not in a climate crisis, there are not too many people, we are not running out of fossil fuels, bio fuels will not replace traditional fuels, wind energy is a loser, renewable energy is a farce, housing restrictions are a prelude to tyrannous control of society, and mass transportation is part of the scheme, and the wilderness is not sacred.

Does it matter that our artistic culture is so bereft of greatness? It is not possible to measure the effect, but as Einstein said, not all that can be measured is important, and not all that is important can be measured. The purpose of society is not to produce great art, and yet a society that fails to do so will subsequently be thought the poorer for not having done so. There is no grandeur to it, only a dull, insipid, and uninspiring utilitarianism, however great its technical achievements. We may be able to communicate faster, more easily, and with more people than ever before—but we have nothing to communicate. - Empty Frames, by Theodore Dalrymple 

My Judiciary Gazette

The Judiciary and America's Third Revolution: Part II

By Rich Kozlovich Tags: The Judiciary and America's Third Revolution: Part I

I save a lot of articles dealing with every issue facing humanity in order to use them as sources, and that includes a lot of articles dealing with the corruption of the judiciary.  The trouble with that is I end up with a lot of unorganized drafts making it hard to find the article I may need.   So, I decided it was time to organize them properly. I will be adding more in the future, but let's start with one consequence of all this corruption:

• Plummeting public trust in the Judiciary - The American Judiciary is facing a crisis of confidence as public outrage swells over federal judges’ repeated interventions in President Donald Trump’s agenda.  In just the past few days, rulings blocking foreign aid freezes, personnel shakeups, and terrorist deportations have sparked a firestorm, with social media erupting in accusations of bias, corruption, and judicial overreach.  At the center of the storm: Chief Justice John Roberts, whose rare public statement today defending the courts has only deepened the divide.............

There are those who call what's going on with the judiciary treason, and that's being accepted by a large number of Americans.

   For now, the executive branch retains its sovereign authority to enforce immigration law. And for President Trump, now in his second, non-consecutive term, the ruling marked an early victory in a week that would yield several more...........
