Description

Lev Menand, associate professor at Columbia Law School, joins Court Accountability Action's Mike Sacks. They discuss how the Supreme Court's decisions in Trump v. Slaughter and Trump v. Cook show Chief Justice John Roberts twisting the law for his own purposes while refusing to recognize President Trump's obvious bad faith in his failed attempt to fire Federal Reserve Board member Lisa Cook.

I remember all of them saying that they would follow the precedent for abortion and many other past decisions! They all lied during their conformation hearings!

The People need to fight against this criminal activity by the Supreme Court and Justices who are doing this must pay the price for this. They are NOT above the law or are they?

These justices are ideologically trying to shape society rather than just interpreting the law as written. They have become the activists they traditionally admonish. It is, at its foundation, the hubris of the Federalist Society and the Heritage Foundation and a belief that "they know best". The very thing our forefathers attempted to nueter by declaring independence to begin with.

Not only did they gang up against Congress, but they also overruled all the checks that were working properly by the lower courts.

This Supreme Court has made themselves into lawmakers, instead of the law adjudicators they should be.
