Courts

People are often concerned about the court system becoming political. This has been in the news since the Supreme Court now has 6 six judges who are considered more conservative. Since Trump 2.0 the lower courts have been active in blocking presidential executive orders but they too have been somewhat political Of the 30 judges who partially or fully blocked a Trump administration's executive actions in 38 cases, 26 were appointed by Democratic presidents Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden. The result is that liberals are complaining about the Supreme Court and conservatives are complaining about the lower courts.
