With the elevation of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court, the first truly pro-Constitution majority, since the infamous “switch in time that saved nine” during the Presidency of FDR, now controls the Supreme Court of the United States.
Of course, like all Supreme Court line-ups, the current configuration will not last forever, and there is always the possibility of a “conservative” justice becoming more moderate over time. Still, while it will likely take decades to undo all the damage done since the “switch in time”, the invented “rights” and other examples of political policy trumping the Constitution, common law, and precedent are endangered at the same time that actual declarative and restrictive rights, as well as Constitutional limitations, can be reasserted.
It is telling, then, how much Progressives in the news media are panicking. What was once their Ace in the Hole to push their agenda despite people not democratically supporting it, is such a threat that they want it outright abolished (despite the fact that Article III of the Constitution specifically invests a supreme court with the judicial power of the United States).
