While I agree with Tom that the courts cannot save us, they are (as he notes) important — and they've recently been doing enough right to have a Goebbels lookalike fulminate about "judicial tyranny" and Dear Leader himself rage against “USA HATING JUDGES WHO SUFFER FROM AN IDEOLOGY THAT IS SICK.”
Unhinged MAGA-spurring attacks like these endanger judges who have issued rulings halting the Trump regime's advance to tyranny (180 rulings so far, albeit most of them temporary). I suggest that in our many calls to congress members we ask that they protect judges by increasing the number of marshals assigned to protect them, boosting funding for courthouse security, and shielding judges’ home addresses from public view. Congressional switchboard: 202-224-3121.
Postcard writers might like to mail a note of thanks to some of the former federal judges who have formed a group called “Keep Our Republic’s Article III Coalition” to defend the independence of the court system and advocate for sitting judges. They are signatories to the letter found at https://keepourrepublic.org/article-iii-coalition
