Dems respect the Constitution only when it suits them
Pelosi's Constitution and rule of law
Robert Knight | Saturday, January 18, 2020
Upon delivering two articles of impeachment to the Senate on Wednesday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi declared that Mr. Trump was guilty of “an assault on the Constitution of the United States.â€
Wow. That was some phone call he made to Ukraine’s president. Who knew that, if unaddressed, it would unravel the nation’s Founding document?
In any case, Mrs. Pelosi’s newfound, if selective, respect for the U.S. Constitution is refreshing.

All of this is part of a lawless pattern whereby citizens’ votes and legislators’ actions are pretty much nullified when it suits leftist politicians and judges.
In January 2019, U.S. District Judge Wendy Beetlestone, a 2014 Obama appointee, struck down a Trump administration rule allowing religious employers not to be forced to provide free birth control to employees. Going beyond Pennsylvania and New Jersey, the two states that had sued, she filed a nationwide injunction.
In 176 years since the Founding of the United States, no district judge had issued a national injunction until 1963, and only an average of 1.5 such injunctions until Barack Obama took office. Even then, the average climbed only to 2.5 injunctions yearly until Mr. Trump took office.
Then, the injunction machine kicked in like a slot machine gone berserk. In his first year in office, Mr. Trump faced 20 national injunctions on such issues as immigration, health care and transgender activism. Now it’s past 30. . . .

This is the part that gets me. District court judges simply do not have the authority to file nationwide injunctions. The Trump Administration should tell each and every one of them to go pound sand. Democrats are fascio-communists through and through with zero regard for the rule of law.
