Are unelected judges against Democracy?

I always thought Judges were elected, but now I find out that Obama and Biden appointed
judges, and these are the judges that are stopping Democracy.

The last election was Democracy in action. We voted in people that would root out
corruption and fraud in the government.

Now we have Liberal activist judges doing everything they can to thwart Democracy.

Again, and again, Democrats doing the exact things that they "Accuse" the
Republicans of.

Apparently during Bidens reign of Alzheimer’s, he had Trumps judges impeding him.

The US system of doing things is a bit of a mess.

@Kypro Not my above reply, it ALL happened, and is still happening. Just yesterday that
Pressly chick said we need to Censor Trump and all Republicans.
@DogMan says
that is called the Fascist left.

Actions speak louder than words, and NAZI actions were anti-socialist, destroying unions and privatizing industry. Need details?

On May 2, 1933, Adolf Hitler’s storm troopers occupied all trade union headquarters across Germany, and union leaders were arrested and put in prison or concentration camps. Many were beaten and tortured. All of the unions’ funds – in other words, the workers’ money – were confiscated. Former union officials were put on blacklists, preventing them from finding work.

The Great Depression had spurred increased state ownership in most Western capitalist countries. This also took place in Germany during the last years of the Weimar Republic.[41] However, after the Nazis took power, industries were privatized en masse. Several banks, shipyards, railway lines, shipping lines, welfare organizations, and more were privatized.[42] The Nazi government took the stance that enterprises should be in private hands wherever possible.[43] State ownership was to be avoided unless it was absolutely necessary for rearmament or the war effort, and even in those cases "the Reich often insisted on the inclusion in the contract of an option clause according to which the private firm operating the plant was entitled to purchase it."[43]

In short: Hitler hated unions and loved privately owned industry, just like American right wingers!!!

@ElwoodBlues I notice that you did not dispute the Fascist actions that I noted the left
has been doing.

It sounds like you are saying that anyone who believes in private
business ownership, over government, is Fascist. Is that all you got?

I started my company over 20 years ago. I guess I'm a Fascist, huh?

That is twisted.

That's not what I'm saying at all. I'm saying you are completely misusing the word fascism. I'm saying that fascism is a RIGHT WING ideology.

Look, in Germany in the 1930s,
the Nazis bitterly opposed the Social Democrats;
the Nazis bitterly opposed the Socialists;
the Nazis bitterly opposed the Trade Unionists;
and the Nazis bitterly opposed the Communists.

When I say "bitterly opposed" it means the Nazis sent brownshirt thugs to disrupt rallies and fight in the streets against their political opponents. The Nazis were a reactionary party reacting against the left wing in Germany at the time. The Nazis built their platform on racism, nationalism, and fear of the foreign.

The Nazis opposed all the left wing movements of their era. Fascism is a RIGHT WING ideology.

@DogMan Kind of like using Antifa and BLM a couple summers ago? The calls now for fighting in the streets and starting to see overthrow the govt and open revolt statements? Yeah .. the left can actually be what they claim they are most upset about. When that happens .. its called hypocrisy.
@BrandNewMan ROTFL!!!

@ElwoodBlues Not at all what I said .. and you damn well know that but lie and claim otherwise like usual.

Think Minneapolis, Louisville, St. Louis, WI, Oregon, Seattle .. unrest that went much farther in terms of lives lost, people assaulted, property damage caused and included attacks on police and government offices than Jan 6tb. I do not support the capital protests or actions of anyone entering govt buildings outside the law. This other mess was every bit as wrong.
@BrandNewMan Please write more clearly in the future. By July 2020, police had made 14,000 arrests in 49 cities in response to the George Floyd & similar protests.

AND NO PRESIDENT PARDONED ANY OF THEM!!
@ElwoodBlues Nothing was said even remotely about Jan 6th in what I wrote .. that is on you and your agenda
@BrandNewMan claims
Nothing was said even remotely about Jan 6th in what I wrote

I guess you've already forgotten that you said:
and starting to see overthrow the govt and open revolt statements?
Do you have short term memory issues??

@ElwoodBlues Hundreds of alleged looters and rioters busted last year in protests over George Floyd’s murder by police have had their charges dropped, according to NYPD data — figures ripped as “disgusting” by a local business owner.

In The Bronx
— which saw fires in the street and mass looting in June 2020 — more than 60 percent of arrestees have had charges dropped, according to the investigation by NBC New York.

Seventy-three of the 118 people arrested in the borough had their cases shelved altogether, another 19 were convicted on lesser counts like trespassing, which carries no jail time, the report said.

Eighteen cases remain open, with NBC not accounting for the other eight arrests

In Manhattan — where looters ran rampant across Soho and Midtown— 222 of those arrested had their cases completely dropped, while 73 got lesser counts.

Of the 485 people busted in the borough, 128 have open criminal court cases, while 40 juvenile defendants had their cases moved to family court, NBC found.

Another 40 cases with juvenile defendants were sent to family court

@ElwoodBlues Elwood, did you ever hear about people being arrested for the 2020 riots,
that were never there? You know, people that just liked it on Facebook? That happened
to people after the J6 riots. Even the people that were outside, and never went into the
capital, were thrown in jail for months and years. In 2020, no one was arrested that were
just in the streets with signs. The people arrested in 2020 were burning and looting, which
is much worse than anything the rioters did on J6.
@DogMan It's true, 14,000 were arrested, but not all the charges stuck.

... arrested ... You know, people that just liked it on Facebook? That happened to people after the J6 riots.
No, I never heard of it. Do you have evidence that this actually happened?? If so, please link us to it.

Even the people that were outside, and never went into the capital
Members of the Capitol police force were assaulted OUTSIDE the capital as well. And, unlike most criminals, they recorded themselves committing assault and battery and streamed to social media. Assault and battery is a crime both inside and outside the Capitol.

@ElwoodBlues But, yet most were charged with trespassing, and parading.
Were any charged with insurrection?
