McConnell: We are Transforming the Court System of this Country

Tuesday June 26th, 2018

The prevailing theme of the Road to Majority conference this year was the “aggressive takeover of the court system” of the United States by conservatives.

“Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell was perhaps the most enthusiastic, and certainly the most self-satisfied, about the Trump-appointed judges being rapidly confirmed. He told conference attendees that that ‘single most consequential decision I’ve made in my entire political career was to not let Barrack Obama fill that [Antonin] Scalia vacancy on the way out the door,’ for which he received a thunderous ovation from the audience.

McConnell said he has seen similar wins in the lower courts, and pointing out that Republicans have confirmed “one-eighth of the circuit court judges in America” in the last year and a half, thanks to U.S. President Donald Trump.

“Admirers of Justice Scalia are all over the country now and we’ve been seeing them as the president sends up circuit judges, we’ve been confirming in record numbers,” McConnell said. Then he added, “We are transforming the court system of this country.”

“Of all the things we’re doing, the things that will have the longest impact on the country are the court systems and these men and women the president has been sending up and we’ve been confirming are not very old, either,” McConnell said. “Late 40s, early 50s, chances are they will be on there for a very long time. Most cases don’t reach the Supreme Court, so the circuit courts are really where most complex cases end.”

Talk about judges was a prevailing talking point at the conference. “Vice President Mike Pence told attendees that Trump had appointed “strong conservatives to our federal courts at every level.” Said Pence, ‘In fact, last year, this president and our administration, with the strong support [the] Republican majority in the United States Senate, set a record for the most court of appeals judges confirmed to our federal courts in a single year in American history—and that doesn’t even count Justice Neil Gorsuch.’

“We have a Supreme Court justice. We have over 40 federal judges that have been appointed to the district, the circuit, the appeals courts,” said Rep. Marsha Blackburn.

“One-eighth of the US Circuit Court judiciary right now is a Donald Trump appointee nominee and we’ve only been here for 16 months,” said Kellyanne Conway, advisor to President Trump. “That’s an incredible thing and that’s the way you see a lasting legacy, that’s the way you see a legacy long after he leaves the presidency six-and-a-half years from now.”

Rep. Kevin McCarthy said, “We’ve appointed more judges and we need more that believe in the Constitution, not one—somebody who’s going to reinterpret the Constitution.”

“At a meeting on Capitol Hill, Sen. Chuck Grassley told Road to Majority attendees that the Senate was confirming Trump’s judges like “a sub-machine gun—it’s because previous presidents didn’t work as hard as this president’s staff to get them reviewed and get them out.”

Making the courts more conservative is one of the keys to making America more religious. Will these courts, eventually uphold worship laws? Liberal judges are more likely to resist forcing religion on America. Nebuchadnezzar included the judges in his new world order religious worship on the plain of Dura, and insisted on them attending the worship of the great image, which he had built. Will the Trump judges support the new world order religious laws predicted in Revelation 13?

“Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the princes, the governors, and the captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image which Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.” Daniel 3:2.

    It doesn’t matter whether they’re conservative or liberal, the judges in the USA will eventually support the coming Sunday Law, because Bible prophecy says they will. The needle on the meter does move a bit to the right, conservatives are a fair bit more religious than liberals. Yet IMHO this is no reason to support liberal politicians. Ellen White counseled that Christians should not be partisan, but work solely toward the advancement of God’s kingdom.
