This simmering political-legal stew is a looming danger in the USA. According to the National Center for State Courts (NCSC), nearly two-thirds (63%) of Americans expressed trust and confidence in state courts. Yet, 59% also say the word “political” can be used to describe the courts. In the Illinois situation, the two branches, executive and judicial, are acting in open concert. Pritzker’s political position is obvious, but the courts should at the very least understand the law. They do not. BTW… Confidence in Federal courts is at a historic low (43% on bias), substantially due to the partisan divide. In many states, the court system has become the handmaiden to the governor.
