Alabama Chief Justice Tom Parker indicated on the show he was a proponent of the “Seven Mountains Mandate,” an explicitly theocratic doctrine at the heart of Christian nationalism.
Alabama Chief Justice Tom Parker, who wrote the concurring opinion in last week’s explosive Alabama Supreme Court ruling that frozen embryos have the same rights as living children, recently appeared on a show hosted by self-anointed “prophet” and QAnon conspiracy theorist.
Parker was the featured guest on “Someone You Should Know,” hosted by Johnny Enlow, a Christian nationalist influencer and devoted supporter of former President Donald Trump. Over the course of an 11-minute interview, Parker articulated a theocratic worldview at odds with a functioning, pluralistic society.
“God created government,” he told Enlow, adding that it’s “heartbreaking” that “we have let it go into the possession of others.”
The core belief system of the United States of America has always been to have fair and impartial judges. It’s not a conspiracy theory from either side.
Having said that, either side would love to stack the court system in their favor, and the conservatives especially have been actively working on that for quite a while now.
As Americans, we shouldn’t allow that to happen (FFS vote smart on judges!), either way. There’s a reason why Justice is always shown with a scale.
The bipartisan consensus is right-wing because America is a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie.
