If Biden is foolish enough to try to impose term limits on SCOTUS, he violates the very intention of our founding fathers as reflected and summarized in Federalist paper 78.

In that paper, the founders recognize the judicial branch as the weakest of the three and its role in protecting the PEOPLE from the unwieldy exercise of power by the other two branches (legislative and executive).

In that paper, the explain perfectly why terms of the SCOTUS justices should be long and not subject to term, and the only standard for removal be that of “good behavior.”

In short: (1) they wanted to shield the court from the whims of popularity; and (2) they wanted COMPETENT judges with long memories, experience and a fulsome grasp of the full cannon of the law —- no dummies or short sighted idiots allowed, thanks.

See thread below for detail 🧵🪡 “That inflexible and uniform adherence to the rights of the constitution and of individuals, which we perceive to be indispensable in the courts of justice, can certainly not be expected from judges who hold their offices by a temporary commission. Periodical appointments, however regulated, or by whomsoever made, would in some way or other be fatal to their necessary independence. If the power of making them was committed either to the executive or legislature, there would be danger of an improper complaisance to the branch which possessed it; if to both, there would be an unwillingness to hazard the displeasure of either; if to the people, or to persons chosen by them for the special purpose, there would be too great a disposition to consult popularity, to justify a reliance that nothing would be consulted but the constitution and the laws.

There is yet a further and a weighty reason for the permanency of the judicial offices; which is deducible from the nature of the qualifications they require. It has been frequently remarked with great propriety, that a voluminous code of laws is one of the inconveniences necessarily connected with the advantages of a free government. To avoid an arbitrary discretion in the courts, it is indispensable that they should be bound down by strict rules and precedents, which serve to define and point out their duty in every particular case that comes before them; and it will readily be conceived from the variety of controversies which grow out of the folly and wickedness of mankind, that the records of those precedents must unavoidably swell to a very considerable bulk, and must demand long and laborious study to acquire a competent knowledge of them. Hence it is that there can be but few men in the society, who will have sufficient skill in the laws to qualify them for the stations of judges. And making the proper deductions for the ordinary depravity of human nature, the number must be still smaller of those who unite the requisite integrity with the requisite knowledge. These considerations apprise us, that the government can have no great option between fit characters; and that a temporary duration in office, which would naturally discourage such characters from quitting a lucrative line of practice to accept a seat on the bench, would have a tendency to throw the administration of justice into hands less able, and less well qualified to conduct it with utility and dignity. In the present circumstances of this country, and in those in which it is likely to be for a long time to come, the disadvantages on this score would be greater than they may at first sight appear; but it must be confessed that they are far inferior to those which present themselves under the other aspects of the subject.

Upon the whole there can be no room to doubt that the convention acted wisely in copying from the models of those constitutions which have established good behaviour as the tenure of their judicial offices in point of duration; and that so far from being blameable on this account, their plan would have been inexcuseably defective if it had wanted this important feature of good government. The experience of Great Britain affords an illustrious comment on the excellence of the institution.”

A fantastic summary of, and response to, the current antisemitism and student harassment crisis plaguing the UCSB college campus by Josh Levine, Executive Director of the Santa Barbara Hillel.



Full text below for those who don’t like to click links.

This is worth a full read.mailchi.mp/santabarbarahi… Dear SB Hillel Community Members, Parents, and Supporters,

UCSB’s small but loud band of campus extremists, surely realizing that the audience for its activism is about to dwindle after this weekend’s graduation, chose this week to escalate its months-long campaign of vandalism, disruption, and incitement to violence. Its latest illegal actions began Monday morning as part of a coordinated effort to disrupt public spaces at four University of California campuses. 

Late Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning, law enforcement personnel arrived at UCSB’s campus to address some issues and ignore others. The response by university officials continues to be inadequate and incomplete. The university must comply with federal and state laws, enforce its codes of conduct, hold accountable the students and community activists who disrupt its academic mission, and restore campus safety and accessibility for all.

Healthcare Workers for Palestine in Boston today live streamed their pontifications for the world to record and never forget.

I wouldn’t want a single one of them within 50 feet of me in a hospital or healthcare setting.

They begin their speeches first with a land acknowledgment in violation of Professor Mohamed Abdou’s warnings of the hypocrisy in same.

I guess they aren’t Columbia grads.

Allegedly fired Columbia Professor, Mohamed Abdou, just can’t resist spreading his ideology —- whether on or off campus. A thread🧵

THIS 5-PART VIDEO SERIES IS A MUST-WATCH TO UNDERSTAND THE REPULSIVE IDEOLOGY AND RHETORIC HE SPREADS TO IMPRESSIONABLE YOUTH MINDS. Part 1: Abdou explains that colonialist settler nations, such as Canada, the US and Israel, are dependent on the ONGOING (not historical) genocide of indigenous peoples, and the continued “plunder” of those people, land and resources are necessary elements of empire wealth for such settler nations.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Meet Professor #Hatem #Bazian from UC Berkeley, the founder of Students for Justice in Palestine and also Americans for Muslims in Palestine. It is time for Hatem Bazian to become a household name for all of this damage he is causing on college campuses throughout the US.

His organizations, stemming as far back as 1993 and 2006, have many ties to Hamas terrorists and their financiers.

This is clip of a great, longer video which can be found on @canarymission website:

A lot of these speeches in the video go as far back as 2004 and 2009.

More on SJP and AMP is summarized in this thread: canarymission.org/professor/Hate…
Professor #Hatem #Bazian from UC Berkeley did not create the student organization Studetns for Justice in Palestine (SJP) or Americans for Muslim in Palestine (AMP) to engage in peaceful protests or to create our nation’s future “Palestinian Ghandi.” He believes the Palestinian Ghandis have already been deported, jailed or killed.

Notice how in this clip from 2014, he blames Israel for a “genocide” of Palestinians —— loooooong before October 2023.

Since 2014 (after this speech), the population of Gaza has doubled from approximately 600.4K to 800.6K according to .

I love that Fox News is showing each one as they are arrested without their masks on. In real time. I thought this was perhaps carelessness by the news channel, but no. The police are intentionally unmasking each of these little jihadi shits one by one in front of the camera.

And it is glorious.

Ladies and Gentlemen: If you don’t know Linda Sarsour yet, it’s time to get to know her. 🧵 (5 parts)

She has called herself the “parent whisperer” and prides herself on grooming your child to become a radical Islamic protestor to fight for the destruction of the state of Israel.

This woman is NOT your friend, and will put your child in harm’s way to further her OWN political cause. Part 1 - Linda Sarsour is fulfilled by her job of radicalizing your child by calling you (a parent) and telling you it’s ok for your kid to protest (even though they are in danger of ruining their future, she will tell you they aren’t in Part 3).

This earring MF from downtown LA is back - now on campus. He brags about being on USC campus and evading campus security, who does not allow non-students on campus.

He’s inciting others, including non-students, to come on campus and join the event.

This was live streamed from Instagram by the PYMLAOCIE account.

This is a security threat for all students on campus. He is “calling for community to join students at USC.” This guy is a legit domestic terrorist inciting non-students to trespass onto USC.

Video to come. They are intentionally coordinating the times of their live streams.Image
