Stung by gun and abortion rulings, Biden undermines Supreme Court in ways unlike predecessors

Two months into his presidency, as he did often on the campaign trial, President Joe Biden asked America to embrace the legitimacy of government.

“Put trust and faith in our government to fulfill its most important function, which is protecting the American people,” the 46th president implored his country in a March 2021 speech on the anniversary of the COVID-19 lockdowns.

On Friday, after being stung by abortion and gun rights rulings by the Supreme Court that he disagreed with, the president changed his tune and launched a verbal assault on America’s judicial branch of government and its iconic marbled court of nine justices.

The president took a blowtorch to the Supreme Court in language clearly designed to undermine its legitimacy. He accused the justices of waging a “deliberate effort over decades to upset the balance of our law" and decried their “extreme and dangerous path", as he insisted the nation’s highest court had made the “United States an outlier among developed nations” by reversing the half-century-old Roe v. Wade decision.

Slavery was the "Law of the "Land" for over a hundred years. The SCOTUS rendered a decision in the Dread Scott case that concluded slaves were indeed property. Was it wrong for that Supreme Court decission to be rendered moot and overturned?

More and more evidence this alledged President is a TRAITOR. Besides being sub-neaderthal. He claims to be such a God loving Catholic. Bah!

I kind of have a feeling that the Supreme court has just flexed.its collective muscles. They see what has become of our government and are trying to get more power back to the states-more online with the constitution. (sorry about the underling)

  Correct Leslie and as I quoted below: All tyrannies rule through fraud and force, but once the fraud is exposed, they must rely exclusively on force! I think SCJ's woke up after that force was unleashed at their homes, against their families and especially with the attempted assination... and all the Democrats ignored it!

"All tyrannies rule through fraud and force, but once the fraud is exposed, they must rely exclusively on force."---George Orwell." "Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear."---Harry S. Truman.
