The Deep State will never be defeated

Screen shot of reply to search query, “Did Biden Raise tariffs?”

The Republicans have demonstrated, as though any further proof were necessary, that they will not cut spending, or the reach of the pro-government regulatory system they’ve created — they’re as addicted to power and wealth as the Democrat members of the ruling class are. And the judiciary is right there alongside them.

There may be someone out there who has not lost hope for the republic, but I’m not one of them.

JEFFREY CARTER: Down to the Banana Republics.

“A judge just ruled that Trump’s tariffs are not kosher with him. . . . This same court, and these same businesses and states, were okay with Biden/Obama and anyone else charging tariffs. Hence, it’s political.

… The court rulings we see against Trump by activist judges will not undermine Trump. It will undermine the US legal system. We are a country ruled by law which are rooted in the Constitution and precedent. We are rapidly becoming a Banana Republic where the “law” is meaningless because of activist judges. These are judges who feel free to read into the law things that are not there. It is upsetting to people who want to have a life where they experience true liberty. When judges rule capriciously, liberty is in peril.

Glenn Reynolds, InstaPundit:

Maybe there’s a legal principle that can explain this. But there have been so many examples like this that people have stopped assuming propriety on the part of the judiciary. That’s unfortunate, but it was inevitable once a significant number of federal judges started positioning themselves as part of the “resistance,” and once the Supreme Court — and in particular, Chief Justice Roberts — decided not to put an end to this right away.
