But we've seen this over and over again, this judicial brinksmanship under Trump that is absolutely destabilizing to self-government. And, you know, it's not a surprise that you're getting a lot of
you know, MAGA Republicans getting radicalized about the judiciary and saying, you know, we need to, you know, in the words of Judy Vance, like the courts issued its warning, I'll let the court enforce it and just ignore the judicial branch. I don't think Donald Trump wants to go that far, but boy, that ruling really is tempting, is a tempting test case.
I mean, he's exactly right. I mean, when do we get our president back? Right. I mean, that's the Supreme Court effectively absconded with the presidency until further notice. And we only have Justice Alito standing up. It's insane. And yes, there are limits. Right.
You know, you could say that the court order says, oh, you know, we want the president to effectuate bringing back Garcia from El Salvador. But. He belongs in El Salvador. And there are limits. I mean, it's not like the Supreme Court can say, you know, send the Navy and launch an amphibious invasion and then go rescue him. Give me a break. I mean, this is making up law.
I mean, the president has an ability to negotiate with other sovereign heads of states and And to proceed and carry out lawful actions. And once he does, there are consequences to that that aren't reversible and aren't justiciable. So, you know, this is going too far. And the Supreme Court... I better get out of this by the end of this week because otherwise it is going to be tempting.
Another huge confrontation with the president. And in most cases, when they sit down to rule, they look at, at the constitution, they look at article one and article two, and they decide, you know what? The president really has authority over executive actions and Congress really has authority over the law. And there's nothing we can, you know, do about it. And there's no lacuna to hide in.
They're being used in English language instruction at age three. Some of them.
That's the one where they are supposed to look for the leather and things and bondage, things like that. It's not bondage. It's a woman in a leather... Sex worker, right? No. No?
No. Gosh, I read it.
Drag queen and drag queen. Correct.
And they're supposed to look for those.
I think you're right. I mean, ideally, not only that, ideally Gorsuch would then run back and try to rewrite Bostock's decision because this is actually a downward consequence of that decision. This is him reaping what he sowed so many years ago, which is basically that
He said that if you read the 1964 Civil Rights Act with the same squinted, piscable eyes that he brought to the case, that transgender people have civil rights as transgender identity. And of course, the schools in the United States would then follow up with a curriculum to foster respect for the most minority of sexual minorities, right?
of course this is the downward effect of that and he should repent like we should get sackcloth and ashes out out uh besides the uh the judicial garb um no i don't think it's going to be close but there's also a kind of you know problem in our ruling about religious freedoms in this is that you have to prove that there's a sincere religious belief like is it really a religious belief that men are men and women are women
I mean, I suppose it is. I suppose it is. I mean, we could have a school of people come along and say, listen, technically, when you sit on a chair, there actually is an exchange of molecules between the chair and your physical body. Therefore, there's no distinction between the two. And I can throw you out of window just as easily as I throw the chair out of a window.
And then I have to come and say, well, my Christian faith teaches me that, in fact, a person is a person and a chair is a chair. I mean, give me a break. Do we have anything common underlying our law or can any fool theory come out of an academic department? and lead to us introducing four-year-olds to leather daddies and and drag memes give me a break
The fact that you even have to walk on eggshells to state this obvious fact about the case shows you in no small part how we got to this place in the first place. It's just a horrible story. What amazing grace from this boy's father who says, I already forgive him, which is to say, vengeance is mine, says the Lord, and I will repay. Their foot shall slide in due time.
That is not to say that the boy should not be arrested, prosecuted, imprisoned for life at least, if not more. And the very fact that that has not happened is part of how we got here in the first place. This question, how was this boy raised? Well, you're not allowed to ask that question. Specifically from the racial angle, which the establishment media will not speak about.
They probably won't speak about the case because of the races of the perpetrator, the alleged perpetrator and the victim. You know, one has said that we cannot ask how we got to a place where 70% plus of black children in the United States are born out of wedlock. We're not allowed to ask that. That's politically incorrect. It's none of your business.
Well, it is my business because I live in society and there are obviously downstream effects. I don't know the particulars of this guy's family situation. Maybe he just ran, he went totally off the handle. Maybe he had some mental health crisis or something. We're not allowed to talk about these things either.
