Hit piece on Justice Gorsuch

Posted by David Hardy · 29 May 2018 10:27 AM

Right here. He's supposedly the second most polarizing man in Washington. And the author didn't like his mother, either, nor her second husband. Ho-hum. I just know that at the last National Firearms Law Seminar, one speaker REALLY liked Gorsuch. He was Gerald Goldstein, criminal defense attorney and civil libertarian. He pointed out that Gorsuch has shown serious respect for the Fourth Amendment and privacy from government intrusion, skepticism for government arguments that other Justices might buy into, and even (unlike Scalia) rejects "Chevron deference," the concept that the Court should defer to agencies (even when the issue is how much power the agency has). I suppose all these might make a Justice "divisive" in Washington -- so let's have more division!

What's wrong with the courts? They fail to recognize that the BoR overrides EVERYTHING in the Constitution, circumscribes ALL federal powers including taxation and commerce, AND through the supremacy clause circumscribes EVERYTHING in State Constitutions. The judges pull crap out and make up so much stuff that they prove to any sentient person that they are liars, thieves, and evil.

As to "Chevron deference", ALL LEGISLATIVE POWERS ARE VESTED IN CONGRESS. There is no grant to delegate granted powers. No regulation or rule promulgated by an agency is legitimate or constitutional. Congress has no authority to "give" such power. Even delegating legislative power violates the bare statement of Article I.
