On this episode of the podcast, former Texas Judge and Congressman Louie Gohmert dives into the growing politicization of the American judicial system. Gohmert pulls no punches as he critiques judges who choose to legislate from the bench and overstep their constitutional authority — pointing to a controversial New Hampshire ruling on gender identity in sports as a prime example.
The former Chief Justice on Texas’s 12th Court of Appeals reflects on the evolution of federal judges, including conservative appointees like Judges David Souter and Stephen McAuliffe, who shifted left over time and waited to retire until a Democrat president like former President Barack Obama could replace them. Gohmert also explores the lasting impact of the confirmation process on Supreme Court Justices Amy Coney Barrett and Brett Kavanaugh. From calling for judicial reform to questioning birthright citizenship and the effects of illegal immigration on elections, Gohmert delivers a hard-hitting take on the intersection of law, politics, and the Constitution.
