In this all-new episode of Imperial Judges, North Carolina joins Kansas as states where education funding is directed by His Royal Highness from behind a court bench[*1] .
This judge does not have the power to tell the legislature how much money to spend, no matter how much he wants that power. The legislature should absolutely ignore him and do their job. In a more perfect world, the legislature would start proceedings to remove the judge for him attempting to usurp the power of the legislature.
I much agree. The Legislative branch must act, and forcefully, to assert the soverign power of the People over the Judiciary. Throughout the country. (And no, this doesn’t mean that the minority party gets to determine who goes on the Supreme Court…if you think so, go back to first grade and re-learn what “democracy” means.)
