- Title
An Anti-liberal Supreme Court Poised to Subvert Justice.
- Authors
TOPPER, BOB
- Abstract
This article discusses the Supreme Court's recent decisions and the potential implications for justice in the United States. The author criticizes the Court's ruling on abortion rights and argues that the justices' religious beliefs may have influenced their decision. The article also examines the Court's handling of Trump's claim of immunity from prosecution, suggesting that the justices are prioritizing hypothetical cases over the current one. The author expresses concern that delaying Trump's trial could prevent justice from being served and accuses conservative justices of ignoring their oaths of office. Additionally, the article discusses the conflict between fundamentalist Christian beliefs and individual rights, such as LGBT rights and the right to choose. The author suggests that the anti-liberal movement, exemplified by the Trump campaign, is influencing the Supreme Court and threatening liberal democracy. The article concludes by highlighting the global nature of anti-liberalism and its opposition to secular humanism.
