Robert Barnes: The Problem with Republican Judges
Famed attorney explains why the 4th Amendment has been wrecked.
In recent years we have seen Democrat judges take the rule of law, or current case law and turn it on its head using pretzel logic to weaponize system for partisan favor. As they say there is the law and then there is the law as applied, often to very different things.
In the case of Republicans in the Congress and on the judicial bench, they have all too often treated the 4th Amendment like it is a suggestion, allowing all of this illegal domestic spying and using spy tools to violate attorney client privilege. These same judges also give corrupt prosecutors and law enforcement a pass in case after case with no sanctions for breathtaking unethical conduct.
The Republican dominated Supreme Court has been neutering civil rights laws designed to protect citizens form abusive law enforcement by a death of a thousand slices.
This especially holds true for Republican judicial nominees from the big academia and the Federalist Society. Federalist Society claims to be originalist in their judicial philosophy, but history has proved that this is simply not the case. These Republican judges show a deference to authority that Trumps their fidelity to the Constitution. Law enforcement can do no wrong.
