Sotomayor if not removed from the Supreme Court should be forced to recuse herself from any cases involving this administration. After a statement like it is very unlikely that she will up hold her oath to the Constitution.

Journalism as it used to be known has been dead in this country for some time. The MSM are little more than propaganda organs of the left wing of the Democrat party. A few years ago a disgruntled member outted "Journo-List" a list serve run by a top writer at the Washington Post, where the liberal media types all collaborated in secret to get their narrative straight. Once it was exposed that one shut down, but there is little doubt another took its place.

The RedState article linked above is spot on as to the politization of our courts and that Sotomayor has stepped a long way over the line.

I reviewed the public comments of that May 5th commission meeting and Travis Martin from Blounts Creek made lots of sense in his reasoning for keeping Snowden School open. It's too bad that four commissioners and seven school board members just don't want to know.

The problem is not "the courts". It is politically corrupt Obama judges and Biden judges abusing their positions to push a political agenda and this absolutely MUST be stopped if we are to preserve democracy within our Constitutional republic. These partisan Democrat judges are just unelected, unaccountable, political appointees who are trying to attack democracy in their power grabs. There are lots of other solid Constitutionally sound judges out there, and sometimes in appelate courts they have been able to stop the Obama and Biden nutters. But the above article is right that this is all about delay, which they achieve even when a higher court shuts them down.

There are other options than the above. One is impeachment of the politically corrupt judges, with heavy duty subpoenas to seize documents and electronic devices to investigate any collusion in this clearly political campaign of judicial "resistance".

A variation of that would be a special committee in Congress to investigate these judges and subpoena them to testify before that committee in a public hearing. Put these tinhorn judicial dictators on the hot seat.

Additionally, Congress could use the power of the purse to punish them for their undemocratic acts. What we are seeing is the Judicial wing of the Democrat Party. They are 100% politics and 0% Rule of Law.

Simple, Van Zant. They do not want to be confused by facts because their little mings are already made up.

Both Obama and Clinton deported large numbers of illegal aliens. The Democrat judges said nothing about "due process" then. Now it is just a delaying tactic to try to prevent Trump from carrying about the mass deportation of illegal aliens that the polls show that our citizens want. It is a cheap political scam by corrupt judges who ought to be hounded off the bench.

Heck, their poster boy, human trafficker and wife beater MS13 gangster has had plenty of due process. A federal trial court considered the evidence and ruled that he is an illegal alien and MS13 gang member and ordered him deported. He appealed, and on appeal, another federal court agreed with the trial court. This dirtbag has already had two more hearings than he deserved. How much more do the Democrats and their crooked judges want?

Here is a way that Trump can get rid of some more bureaucrats. Even the corrupt Obama and Biden judges would be hard pressed to issue partisan orders to protect these fraudsters.

About the ppl w the ability to take our $$ & spend our $$:
There are men who are like women, in that they are not satisfied to let things just be. AS a woman I know how it is to feel the urge to change the furniture around, buy new Things, remodel the kitchen...replace perfectly good windows ;-)

The men seem to always have the urge to make new unneeded regulations & laws, rearrange 15th street instead of 5th street, build a new school, consolidate a school...

Depending on the title of your job determines what you think needs changing.

I have found that there are lots of things i dont need, I just Want.
I have found that some new things just make more work for myself or causes me to spend more money maintaining the new things I wanted. Or, a new law requires additional laws to clarify that new law. It goes on & on.

Yes, fix whats broken, but sometimes fixing what isnt broken, breaks it.
Its a fact: Except for H & S, Top talent does not reside n local Govt.

I use a CalyxOS operating system, one of the de-Googling systems, on my Android phone. All the Google elements that collect your data are removed from the phone and replaced with others that guard your privacy. There are other systems out there that de-Google your phone but this is the one I have been using and it works great.

You can get the CalyxOS and install it on any Android phone or buy an Android with it already installed. I did the latter. Several of the other de-Googled operating systems give either option as well. A European group that promotes privacy oriented phones only sells their system already installed on a specific brand of Android phone.

Let me also mention one to avoid and that is the Freedom Phone, which was hyped a lot on conservative sites a few years ago. They sold the entire phone with the system installed. The hardware was very cheap Chinese junk, but sold at a high price. The system installed was the first generation of a different de-Googling system that was no longer even offered to customers by its developer which had improved significantly on that version to develop its current product. All in all, not a very good value.
