Insights
1Trump's 'War' on the Judiciary and Rule of Law
Former President Trump allegedly instigated a 'figurative war' on the federal judiciary, the Constitution, and the rule of law from his first day in office. His administration's initiatives were consistently unconstitutional or illegal, leading federal courts to strike them down repeatedly. This pattern of judicial opposition was met with escalating and unprecedented attacks from Trump on federal courts and judges.
Judge Luttig states that Trump 'literally instigated a figurative war on the federal judiciary, the Constitution and the rule of law in America' and that 'every single initiative of this president... has been either demonstrably unconstitutional or otherwise in palpable violation of the laws of the United States.' He adds that 'the federal courts of the United States have struck down every single initiative of this president.'
2Unprecedented Mobilization of Retired Judges
In response to the perceived threats, an unprecedented, non-partisan group of 200-300 retired federal and state judges has mobilized to speak out and file amicus briefs in defense of the Constitution. This collective action is unique in U.S. history, driven by the belief that no other institution or political leader is adequately defending the foundational principles of American governance. These judges leverage their moral authority and expertise, operating outside political influence.
Luttig describes leading 'this very loose group of former federal and state judges numbering 2 to 300' who 'wanted for a year and a half now to speak out from their retirements in defense of the Constitution of the United States and the rule of law in America.' He emphasizes, 'It's never ever has anything like this occurred in the 250 years of of of America's history.'
3The 'Slush Fund' as a Turning Point
The proposed 'slush fund' — an effort to compensate former President Trump, his family, and allies for their involvement in January 6, 2021 — served as a critical turning point. This initiative, perceived as a brazen attempt to reward unlawful and unconstitutional acts at taxpayer expense, was widely understood by the American public as corrupt. This public realization marked 'the beginning of the end' for Trump's political influence, triggering a 'revolt' among ordinary citizens and even beginning to erode his MAGA base.
Luttig states that Trump's effort to create 'this slush fund to compensate him and his family and his allies and supporters on January 6, 2021, that was the final straw for Americans.' He asserts, 'Americans saw that as the final straw. They understood that at that point that was a corrupt effort by the President of the United States at the taxpayers' expense to compensate himself royally for his unlawful, illegal, and unconstitutional acts.'
4Supreme Court's Self-Inflicted Wounds and Erosion of Legitimacy
The Supreme Court's legitimacy and public approval have plummeted due to its own decisions and practices, particularly the ruling granting former President Trump absolute immunity for 'official acts' and its extensive use of the 'shadow docket.' The immunity decision, unprecedented in 250 years of legal history, and the 'shadow docket' (issuing orders without written explanation to stay lower court decisions) are seen as enabling Trump's 'lawless, unconstitutional conduct' and inflicting wounds from which the Court 'ought not ever recover.'
Luttig attributes the 'plummeting' approval of the Supreme Court 'directly to the Supreme Court itself and to nothing else.' He specifically cites its decision in 'Trump versus United States giving this president absolute immunity for virtually any crime that he would ever could ever commit against the Constitution' and its use of the 'shadow docket' in '24 instances to pursue his palpably lawless, unconstitutional conduct without a single written word of explanation or reasoning.'
Lessons
- Recognize the critical role of an independent judiciary in upholding constitutional principles, especially when other branches of government or political leaders falter.
- Support and pay attention to non-partisan efforts by legal experts and former judges who speak out against perceived threats to the rule of law, as they often possess unique authority and insight.
- Understand how seemingly abstract legal decisions, like presidential immunity or the use of 'shadow dockets,' can have profound and immediate impacts on governance and accountability.
- Stay informed about legislative and judicial actions that could undermine democratic institutions, as public awareness and engagement are crucial for accountability.
