Republicans should have already referred James Boasberg for impeachment for his judicial lawfare against the Trump administration for gross overstepping of his authority, an attempted erosion of the President’s Article II powers, and made an example of him.  We did not elect these judges into their positions; they were appointed, and if they don’t do a good job, there needs to be a mechanism to eliminate them.  And that is the complete case with this goofy judge thinking he has the power to stop the President from sending prisoners and violent criminals out of America, to an El Salvadorian prison.  And it’s not just in America but across the world. We recently saw judicial tampering in France to knock off a political rival there, who was up in the polls and poised to beat Macron.  We also saw judicial overreach in South Korea to remove President Yoon through impeachment.  What we are seeing on the world stage is essentially a replay of the Book of Judges from the Bible where flawed personalities are positioning themselves to have kingly power, which they abuse, and to use that power to remove the ability of people to vote for their representation, rather than having an authority system imposed on them.  This judicial loser, Boasberg, in Washington, D.C., is way over his skis, and he should be thrown out of his office by Republicans defending the President.  But this lawfare system evolved to protect the establishment from the will of the people, not to enforce their will, and we see it in literally every country.  The problem goes back to before the Bible, not just in the United States.  And too often, Republicans have their hands dirty from their own antics in the cookie jar, so when they need to defend a judicial topic, they can’t, because they played the game themselves and can’t cast stones against the glasshouse they live in.  Another thing I say all the time is make your life so that you can cast stones and shatter people’s glass houses.  And be sure to judge often.  And be sure, while you’re doing all this, to live in a house made of bricks and that it’s impenetrable to any rocks coming back at you.  You can afford to throw rocks at other people and break their glass houses, but they can’t do the same to you.

All this judicial radicalism reminds me of a local issue, and it comes up every week as a question given to me about why I don’t want to run for the Lakota school board, even though I get asked about it every week, many times a week.  One of the big reasons I have watched over a long period of time is that being elected into a school board position is useless because lawyers run the public school in my neighborhood, which was never clearer than in the case of Darbi Boddy.  To help with the school board issue, I have put my name behind several people to be elected or to sit on the school board and to help get management there that could represent voters and give kids a decent place to attend school.  But in the case of Darbi, one that I recently worked with to be on the school board, who I thought was doing an excellent job was removed from her seat by the lawyers who protect their system from the crazy voters who might want to manage their school system and the tax money that feeds these schools.  When they couldn’t get rid of Darbi any other way, a judge, who I know, stuck his nose into the situation and pitted one school board member that I worked with to get elected against the other one and imposing a restraining order that essentially kept Darbi from doing her job and getting her off the school board on a technicality.  So, for all those people wanting me to be on the school board and to do what I do to help voters have real representation, I live by a few rules, and I would never put myself in one of those positions where some stupid judge could throw rocks at me.  I throw the stones so that they never come back.

I felt so bad for Darbi because she wants to help politically and could be good in politics.  But the system wants to protect itself just as it has been doing with Trump, which is why you don’t see Republicans rushing to Trump’s defense in that Boesman case.  They like having these lawyers in control because it gives them fake power that is always enforceable by the invisible overreach of the judiciary.  And it’s in every local consideration.  Even I, knowing all the players, did not know just how bad the situation was until I watched that process work against Darbi Boddy.  Nothing changes because the lawyers run the schools, and the only people who survive on these school boards, no matter what they are, stick around because the lawyers let them.  The lawyers want easy money, and taxpayer-funded schools are ripe ground for exploitation, and there are always court cases when many thousands of people are involved, from students and their parents to unionized staff.  Lawyers run public schools, and I don’t like lawyers.  I do legal work for fun.  I think only con artists do it for a living.  And if I were on the Lakota school board the way it is now, it would be a glasshouse with a foundation of lawyers who keep it all held up, and that is not something I’m interested in. 

It’s good to have this conversation.  I love the idea of judicial oversight.  For fun, I spent considerable time a few weeks ago at the Supreme Court, so I’m certainly not talking about anarchy.  I know a lot of judges and have known a lot of lawyers over the years, and the key to those positions is that to do their jobs, they have to be good people.  And most people in legal work are not good people.  They are trying to hide from the world that they are bad people, trying to hide it with long black robes and legal scholarship.  However, the system itself is poised toward corruption, and you can hear that in the Boesman case, where he thinks he has authority over Trump’s Article II responsibilities as an elected office holder.  Boesman is out of his mind, and I would like to see my congressman, Warren Davidson, move to impeach Judge Boesman immediately for tampering with Trump, our elected representative.  But then again, many Republicans saw this all happen to a local politician, Darbi Boddy, and they hung her out to dry.  And let me say this, that would never be me.  And when we work to find people who want to be on that stupid school board, good, quality people are not running and staying on the school board because the lawyers keep proper management of the school, or the Executive Branch, from happening.  And until we deal with the problem of judicial overreach, where judges want to be unelected kings, we will always have a broken system.  And it won’t be reformed because the lawyers protect themselves with legal technicalities, so good work can’t be done because their targets are always in court, from shattered glass houses.  Don’t live in a glass house; be sure the rocks only go one way.
