Trump's SCOTUS

[Fife]

Double Bonus: You will get to read about Judah Benjamin, AND you get to find out who the current-day dirty low-down Neo-Confederate SCOTUS Justice is.


The Neo-Confederate SCOTUS Justice

On February 4, 2002, a current member of the United States Supreme Court gave the following remarks at Loyola University, in New Orleans: a tribute to Judah P. Benjamin, a former U.S. Senator who resigned and took part in the secession of Louisiana. He was quickly appointed to a cabinet post by President Jefferson Davis: first as Attorney General, and subsequently as Secretary of War and finally as Secretary of State of the Confederate States of America.

Benjamin has been described as “the brains of the Confederacy.”

After the fall of the Confederate government, Benjamin evaded capture by the Federal government, fled to the Bahamas, and from there moved to England where he had a long and prosperous career as a barrister. There was no attempt to extradite Benjamin to the United States.

The Justice who praised this prominent member of the Confederate government (who was not only a slave-owner, but also a defender of slavery) still sits on the bench of the U.S. Supreme Court.

Is this problematic? If progressives knew about this, would they seek this Justice’s resignation?

She's partying with Bernie this weekend, nobody is really sure if she's dead or just passed out.

Liberal nightmare: Takeover of federal judiciary close to completion

1st Circuit court 2-4 Dem maj
2nd Circuit court will flip when Trump fills the 2 remaining vacancies
3rd Circuit flipped this month
4th Circuit 6-9 Dem maj
5th Circuit majority Rep
6th Circuit majority Rep
7th Circuit majority Rep
8th Circuit majority Rep
9th Circuit will flip if Trump appoints 2 more judges
10th Circuit 5-7 Dem maj
11th Circuit is tied

The conservative effort to salt the federal judiciary with larval Scalias is devastatingly close to completion. Make no mistake, This would have happened if any of the Republican candidates had been elected in 2016. It may be the only thing keeping a lot of Republicans on the Trump Train.

Trump going to get another term too, so imagine how conservative the courts will be after he leaves office in 2025.

Nearly 30 to 40 years of Conservative courts... oh be still my beating heart.

No true conservative, except fringe reactionaries.

Article III was the real Trojan Horse slipped under the tent by Hamilton, Madison, and rest of the counter-revolutionaries.

From the LI article
Republican-appointee does not equal conservative, and conservative at the start does not mean conservative forever. But you’ve got to start somewhere, and “larval Scalias” is not a bad place to start.
