Federal Judges Attempt Coup in Red State, America



Democrats have an uncanny way of demonstrating their professed love of democracy while denying the American people the free exercise thereof. When they win, Republicans are told elections have consequences and that we have to suck up it up; after all, they won. However, when Democrats lose they’ll use the courts and the deep state to subvert the public will. 


No one can deny the disturbing revelations that progressives elements in the FBI and DOJ were behind a conspiracy to drive President Trump from the oval office; or, that the courts have transgressed their constitutionally defined roles. We have judges who are dictating immigration and national security policy. Where in the Constitution do these judges get the authority to determine who can and cannot come into this country?


The federal judiciary is not content with just undermining the Trump administration. They are attempting a coup by redistricting red state, America. North Carolina is currently under the throes of a judicial takeover. A three judge panel has determined that the Old North State’s General Assembly violated the Constitution. Here is an excerpt from the Atlantic:


A three-judge panel, including one circuit-court judge and two district-court judges, ruled Tuesday evening that the Old North State’s redistricting plan relied too heavily on partisan affiliation in drawing constituencies, violating citizens’ rights under the 14th Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause, the First Amendment, and Article I of the Constitution. The decision is the first time a federal court has ever struck down a redistricting plan as a partisan gerrymander. The final word, however, will likely come from the Supreme Court, which is considering two partisan-gerrymandering cases


Redistricting is a violation of the 14th Amendment? The Equal Protection Clause was put in place so as to ensure ex-slaves and their progeny were afforded due process under individual state laws. It had nothing to do with congressional districts which is solely a political question determined by individual states. And how is this a violation of the First Amendment? Where is this nonsense coming from? It just so happens left-wing activists are the plaintiffs in this case. Here is another excerpt from the Atlantic:


Nonetheless, Common Cause and the League of Women Voters both challenged the law, and their two suits were consolidated into one. The plaintiffs argued that the plan violated the Equal Protection Clause, because it discriminated against non-Republican voters; the First Amendment, because it discriminated against voters based on previous political expression; and Article I, because it interfered with the right of the people to elect their representatives.


They’re concerned that these districts discriminate against non-Republican voters? Republican voters threw out a well entrenched Democratic Party that ruled North Carolina for over 100 years. Where was their concern for non-Democratic voters then?


Of course, these plaintiffs found an Obama judge who agreed to this nonsense.


“A partisan gerrymander that is intended to and likely has the effect of entrenching a political party in power undermines the ability of voters to effect change when they see legislative action as infringing on their rights,” Judge James Wynn, an Obama appointee, wrote for the court. “We agree with Plaintiffs that a wealth of evidence proves the General Assembly’s intent to ‘subordinate’ the interests of non-Republican voters and ‘entrench’ Republican domination of the state’s congressional delegation.”



So what we have here is a coup by progressives judges and a malcontent minority who believe elections only have consequences when they win. Take a look at North Carolina’s fabled 12th Congressional District before and after the great 2012 repudiation of the Democratic Party.











Doesn’t the current district make sense? By the way this solidly Democratic district gerrymandered its way into my neighborhood and now I have a moron for a congressman. Now take a look at the grotesque districts of Maryland and Illinois.









Now tell me that these two districts aren’t political motivated. But that’s okay, since both are in blue states.
