If Democrats Criminalize Opposition And Cripple The Court, Democracy Is Dead

Democrats are seeking to land a one-two punch to cement their control of America today and for generations to come: Criminalize the political opposition and cripple the last authority to which the opposition might appeal in defense of its rights.

The only thing that may stand in the way of Trump, or any other political dissenters threatened with contrived charges going forward, is the Supreme Court.

This brings us to part two of the one-two punch: the Democrats' sustained attack on the highest court in the land.

For if the justices themselves were deplorable and irredeemable, then so too was the court - a court now to be treated with the same contempt as any other political institution.

The Dobbs leak reflected contempt for the rule of law, for the court as an institution, and for the American people whose rights the court exists to protect.

For months now, the left and its media mouthpieces have been waging another assault on the court, this time by leveling phony and hypocritical charges of ethics violations at the court's most exceptional jurist, Justice Clarence Thomas, and to a lesser degree his peers.

Democrats no doubt see that the court is the last backstop for justice - the last respite for the opposition to protect their rights from leftists aimed at seizing complete control.
