On this fourth of July we have much to be thankful for, knowing that some strands of the founding are still holding strong. But three recent SCOTUS decisions have caused activists to erupt in frenzied states of emotionally driven ignorance, demanding the court be packed or abolished. Students for Fair Admissions, Inc. v. President and Fellows of Harvard College ended affirmative action on the basis that it violates Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. Biden v. Nebraska stoped the student loan forgiveness program due to the Secretary of Education having no authority to authorize such a blanket plan. 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis ensured First Amendment protections for religious beliefs, effectively overturning a discriminatory law in Colorado which forced violations of fundamental rights on citizens under the guise of equality. In all three cases, activists expressed anger that race can no long be used as a determining factor in college admissions, that loans would not be forgiven outright, and that special interests do not trump social justice or basic rights. What we are seeing here is a lack of context, literacy, or even a simple understanding of basic civics. Emotion and activism are being used to undermine and overturn the fundamental rights of all U.S. citizens in the name of individualized privileges. This is a TRUE threat to democracy, the republic, the rule of law, and fundamental human rights.
