Is the Justice System Being Hijacked?
Justice on Trial: The Kavanaugh Confirmation and the Future of the Supreme Court, by Mollie Hemingway and Carrie Severino, Washington, D.C.: Regnery, 2019, 315 pages, hardcover.
Alexander Hamilton predicted that the Supreme Court would be “the least dangerous branch,” but as authors Mollie Hemingway and Carrie Severino lament, “The judiciary has become the forum where philosopher kings impose the final decision in our most divisive political and social disputes.”
While, as the title implies, the book centers on the battle over the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court, the authors place that titanic struggle in the context of how the federal judiciary has emerged as the way for the American Left to impose its philosophy on the country when they cannot win at the ballot box.
