That is why we see these nationwide injunctions and rulings that split perfectly along party lines.
“They aren't interpreting the law; they are legislating from the bench because they know they couldn't get those ideas passed through Congress. We need more judges who respect the text and fewer who respect their own feelings.”
I agree, and I don’t think we will ever see another justice like Justice Scalia. He was truly the last of a breed.
