Show Notes

Allen Thomas explains that In reading Alexander Hamilton’s definition of the judicial branch, it is easy to feel a foreboding sense that the judiciary today may be wielding a little more in force and will than it was designed for. Thomas notes that the concept of mere judgement within the rule of law seems to have dwindled into a political party’s discernment. American society has begun to judge the basis of a Supreme Court justice not on their constitutionality or ‘judgements’ but on their political leanings and whether it was a Progressive or Conservative president that appointed them.
