I'm so grateful for The Federalist Society. I first heard of it in the early 2000s. And I remember thinking, "Why can't we get more judicial nominees from this group?"
We don't have any secrets we're transparent don't trust it for a second, it's so obvious to those who think and who are educated. But these guys know how to play with power. Scary very scary
Good I love the idea . Hold on to our constitution. Liberty and freedom. Hold firm to our individual freedom. If it goes the other way and socialists and we'll all be in trouble.
Voting for Trump was very Democratic ... he's doing what I voted for and so is the GOP with the courts. Obama sat on his a** not appoointing judges because he assumed Hillary would win. I say thanks!!
It's funny you idiots don't understand it's a social democracy no government official is pushing for socialism you display your ignorance when you say socialism. If you're running for the orange and he wins you will never get to vote again he will take away your guns and your dumb religion.
Lol you had rie vs wade for almost 50 years.. it wasn't going the other way that was decided by 4/6 good appointed SCOTUS and only 3 democratic party appointed SCOTUS; back in 1973; the democrats are still 3 and voted the same; the GOP almost did the complete 180
Really scary to think that an organization/person can provide recommendations to a president and then the president listens to those recommendations and makes a selection and then the senate elected by the people decides whether or not to confirm the president's selection. What is this, a democracy or something? But thanks for the spooky music--it helped me know how to feel.
WP obviously failed to make their point, based on these reactions, but I hope it’s obvious to you now that the SC is *bought.* Judges were installed to get specific results. …Do people not realize that’s *corruption?* Democracy dies in stupidity I guess.
10 years? Again, lifetime apointments. Many of those disgusting pigs will be sitting on the court for 20-30+ years and may be replaced by other scumbags just like them.
It’s all about point of view. Here is a quote about our founding fathers: “Read Jefferson's words: The Constitution is a living document. Many like to refer to our Founding Fathers as the foundation of today's social and political standards. ... In Jefferson's own words, our Constitution is a living document. He encourages us to change as our “human minds” progress.”
@@xentafyjlm2304 No, it is not. This whole non-sense about the courts ruling against the "working class" and in favor of "big corporations" is because people don't understand what the role of federal courts are. Judge Easterbrook debunked this quite well. A lot of moving parts.
@@selfishcapitalist3523 All the rich white liberals who claim to be working class and trick minorities into voting for them really think they’re the rebels not the empire.
Libertarians and confederate larpers rallying hate based militia groups, stripping peoples rights away by giving that power to smaller easier to manipulate institutions and making enemies out of minorities. Rebels that fought to free themselves from a fascist empire or separatists that paved the way for a fascist empire. Hm... might wanna redo the math on that one. Not rebels, separatists.
@@jimdocker9606 1973 4 out of 6 Republican appointees vote for Roe. 2023 6 out of 6 Republican appointees vote against Roe no-one can sanely say the world hasn't became more extreme right wing than 50 years ago . Nostalgia burned.. humans may be next! Trump is fishing for John west victims and their felons
Remember that when corporations successfully turn us all into minimum wage slaves paying half of what we make in taxes while billionaires are having anyone who descents thrown into concentration camps.
It literally is a scheme. Dark money installed judges to do their bidding. Leonard Leo and the corporate interests behind him wanted a changed legal landscape. Looks like they got it.
If you think imposing on freedom of speech and travel is not a bad thing and your interests will coincide with the interests of corporate and conservative billionaires and you will never fall out of the favor of a ruling party then nothing to worry about. There should always be balance in maintaing traditions/ what is good about the past and moving forward.
Law not Justice. Right not Good. This is what our legal system should be. The fact that originalism is reclaiming what was stolen from Americans over the years is a beautiful thing. Long live the Federalist Society and all that they do to uphold our rights!
Wow, I never thought of myself as part of a movement. Oh well. Anyway, I like the idea of more conservative judges as I see them adhering more closely to the constitution. The constitution is under attack. It’s really disturbing to me to hear anyone trying to infringe on my rights by chipping away at amendments. As far as I’ve seen so far, all the democratic candidates advocate for chipping. Am I wrong?
Elaine Kilgore : you are right. Radical progressive democrat leftist is dangerous. They are all identity politics, divisive, anti-freedom, anti-sovereignty, socialism/ communist, anti freedom of speech. People of UK 🇬🇧 understand the danger that why Brexit happen. Now next 20TP🇺🇸PM20, MAGA, KAG 2020🇺🇸🗽
It’s all about point of view. Even our founding fathers debated the constitution. Many believing the one to work was one that adapts to the times (not too quickly though, just right).
@@morgansheric , correct me if I’m wrong, but are you advocating for the erosion of your constitutional rights, because given what we’ve gone through the last year, I’d like to see an intelligent comment. It’s ok if it doesn’t mesh with mine.
Such crap since with everything the Conservatives say they mean "except what we want", such as no prayer in school unless it is the prayer we want, the public displays we want, the rights we want, freedom but only the freedoms we want you to have, and so forth.

Isn’t it great to have Americans pick this president, and then on our behalf, have that President transform the government! There’s a term for this - Representative government. Elections have justified consequences.
@@TeaPartyActivist Steve Sanders seems to be confused regarding how this works. The Electoral College has always elected the President. We live in a Democratic Republic. It was never the intention to have the popular vote decide the president. I'm not sure why this has been going on for 250+ years and folks act surprised that the popular vote is not the way the president is elected. This is Civics 101 from 7th grade.
Rex Card Totally correct!. Prager University has very simple explanation for why representative government and the electoral college was necessary to encourage broad participation from different backgrounds. America!
This is why we must not vote for the Federalists. I hate to sound like a left winger, because I am infact middle of the road, but we must must must vote democratic in the next election. The GOP will destroy this country as long as they have the opportunity. They are forcing the US into the facist realm. It is already extremely scary seeing the way things are going. If the Democrats don't have an opportunity to turn this country around we are doomed.
@@myfight22 I'm not actually. Just because I oppose the crimes and corruption the GOP is displaying doesn't mean I'm a left winger. Corruption should be frowned upon from all sides.
I often hear Progressives mention the "far right" - but have you ever heard them mention someone on the "far left"? Strange - surely SOMEONE must fall on the spectrum of the "far left" - Notice that this is never mentioned and never discussed.
Voting for genuine candidates who will fight for the people is the only way to get ahead. Get the GOP out of politics because they do not belong here. They are destroying our country.
I'm glad Obama assumed Hillary would win and never took care of the court appointed Federal judiciary. Thanks!! Pres. Trump is doing what I voted for, I love Democracy!!! The priority is interpreting the Constitution word for word to the letter.
Jumping ship is not resolving the issue. You and I have as much of a duty to pay attention to what is going on and pay attention to the candidates who will change this corruption. Speak to your representatives and your neighbors about what American values are and who will fight for them, not for the giant corporations. We can change what is happening. Vote out the corruption. Stop voting for the GOP.
@88Gibson LesPaul Thank you. I want to express to anyone who might read these words that if you support the Republican party and their actions, you are supporting a very VERY dark future for this country. Unless you're a billionaire, you benefit in no way with what they are doing
@88Gibson LesPaul I'm in my 50's, and I have run out of steam. Half the country you can not reach - Conservatives - and they continue to elect the worst of the worst thinking it is in their best interest. On the other side - the Democrats - most of them are centrist closet Republicans who won't change. And the DNC keep putting the same rotten people in front of us to choose from. Right now they are on their Biden promotional tour. That rat-bastard has gotten more media coverage than every other Democrat candidate combined. And he has enough Wall Street / corporate cash to win. Not to mention the election rigging. I don't see the people who are secretly running this country letting their power slip away.
Oh I feel bad for you. The founding fathers didn’t mean for it to be like this now that Trump has taken it to its new low. Biden may be here and we may get a new justice under Biden but we are losing a liberal too sadly
"Ideas" indeed! It goes without saying that admitting to an overriding interest in "power", "control", "judgmentalism", and "profit" would give the manipulative game away.
hmm weird how this has less than 60 thousand views. Not to get all conspiratorial but there are definitely people with a vested interest in stifling this kind of reporting.
The president is destroying our country along with the Republican party. If you allow this, you are allowing yourself the be fucked. You are allowing your children and grandchildren to be fucked. I implore you to pay more attention to what is going on. The GOP are corrupting our government and people who neglect to pay attention and vote for genuine candidates who care about the people will pay the price, along with everyone else who aren't multibillionaires.
It will still be secularist, this has nothing to do with billionaires. This video literally doesn’t even try to explain the philosophy. It’s ORIGINALISM not CONSERVATISM. If you want to understand more, look up justice Scalia on originalism. It’s the way the courts were run for the first almost 200 years of this country and a important political thing to understand.
Thomas Jace Really nice language. You are the fruit (evidence) of what secularism & liberalism & Godlessness has produced. I’m guessing you were raised in government schools.
@@dustinhedden2593 If you value what the GOP and this Federalist society are doing than you are truly a fascist. I am not calling you a fascist. I am explaining, that if you genuinely believe in what they are doing, then you will be termed a fascist. The GOP is trying to convert this country to fascism. I'm not saying that because I am a radical leftist. I used to support Trump, I voted for him unfortunately but I'm not a blind follower. I care about the people in this country and I care about my kids and my neighbors kids. The Republicans are taking this country from us and blind followers of trump are letting them do it.
Actually, this documentary demonstrates the opposite of power, because grabs for power come from a lack of power and always lead to a loss of power. If the Conservatives have a plot to grab for power--rather than a plan that solves a glitch in our legal system-- to control the courts--plots are not plans--they cannot pass the security stage of the planning process, and then the plot fails. There is a breaking point between security and capacity. If you are unable to defend your plot, you never reach the point of demonstrating your capacity. You function outside of your capacity. Think of Joseph Ratzinger grabbing for power, and his resignation. Think of Trump, a man who has no prior government experience declares he will run the government like a business is not able to function within his capacity, and it not able to pass security, is facing possible impeachment. or even indictment after he is out of office. Think of Kavanaugh, when the Democrats on the Judicial committee were trying to catch him in lies, and when Sheldon Whitehouse told Kavanaugh that his name would always be tarnished during his confirmation hearings. True power comes from assuming responsibility. Imagine the president of the US is the most powerful person on the planet, but has no solution to a problem, the worst case scenario for the planet, and someone who has no power has the solution. When they come together, the idea goes mainstream, because everyone has a problem and everyone has a solution. Eventually, once the people take back their power, rather than turning it over to others, like Donald Trump, then mankind will function on a very high level. The Federalist Society plot will eventually fail. They will keep listing candidates who are grabbing for power.
