Nearing Midnight: The Leftist Bias has Corrupted America's Legal System - Todd Strandberg -
A key reason why liberty in America is faltering is because the Democrats have decided that politics is a higher priority than the welfare of our nation. For them, it has now become a giant, ongoing political battle where their agenda always comes first in any decision.
When President Trump needs to go to the Senate for approval of a new cabinet officer, he can't expect any vote from the left. Someone may be highly qualified for a job, but because he is a Republican, the Democrats automatically vote against him.
Last week, Mike Pompeo, whom Trump nominated to be the Secretary of State, received the cold- shoulder treatment. Despite being highly qualified for the job, the Democrats came up with lame excuses for not voting for him.
When Obama nominated Hillary Clinton for the same job, she was confirmed in the full Senate by a vote of 94-2. Only Republican Senator David Vitter of Louisiana and Senator Jim DeMint of South Carolina voted against her confirmation. Far more Republican Senators had a personal dislike for Clinton, but they voted for her because they knew the nation needed a Secretary of State.
This unfair treatment of people on the right has extended to all areas of life. A woman named Lindsey posted this comment on Twitter, "I love working in the admissions office at Kent State University in Kent, Ohio, and putting every conservative student's college application through the shredder." When someone said her action was "probably illegal," her post was deleted.
I think the most amount of damage is occurring in the judicial system. When you go before a judge in a legal matter, his or her ruling should not be based on their political party affiliation. It is increasingly becoming clear that Democratic judges have already decided on how they will rule in cases related to politics.
The reason why supporters of illegal immigration ran to the Hawaiian Ninth Circuit Court was because they knew that Judge Derrick Watson, an appointee of President Barack Obama, would give them a temporary restraining order. In another case, they went to the Northern District of California in San Francisco and received another restraining order.
Robert Mueller's ongoing investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election is another example of how corrupt our legal system has become. Muller and his team of leftist lawyers are not after information on Russian interference. They are out to get Trump. Because they can't link Trump to any crime, they are going to investigate everyone around him to find something to charge him with.
There is a rapid desensitization to what is clear violation of basic rights. When President Donald Trump's personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, was raided, there should have been massive uproar from the public. Cohen is trying to defend Trump against Mueller. It's like someone being charged with a crime, and the police arresting his lawyer. These are Soviet-style tactics.
The injustice with Cohen just keeps rolling on. When he went before Judge Kimba Wood in New York to get back his documents, she forced Cohen to reveal that Fox News host Sean Hannity was a client of his. This is a clear violation of legal guidelines. Unless a person is involved in a dispute, a judge has no right to give out someone's name. This judge should be disbarred for her action. Since the rule of law is now void, any move is fair game.
I've reported many times before that the liberal media is just an extension of the Democratic Party. I was surprised to learn that the press has its own involvement in the legal system. At Cohen's hearing were two lawyers for the New York Times and CNN. They were there to do the devil's bidding. Trump was right in saying they are the enemies of the state.
People don't care about the corruption of the legal system because it doesn't affect them. When you have a breakdown in natural law, it's only a matter of time before the whole nation suffers the consequences of lawlessness. The Bible says we "instinctively" know what is lawful, and our collective inaction makes us guilty in suffering the punishments.
We believers have the hope of escaping this mess by way of the rapture. We are to expect a timely rescue from God, but it's important for us to be fighting to the very end.
"For when Gentiles who do not have the Law do instinctively the things of the Law, these, not having the Law, are a law to themselves, since they show that the work of the Law is written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts either accusing or defending them" (Romans 2:14-15).
