Well said. The judges continue to lose their credibility which is the source of their authority. But so many of them are too stupid and shortsighted (like your lawyer friend) to understand this.

I’ve learned too that impeachment was one of the “checks” on the judicial branch, but I’ve yet to see it happen. Is there no way for Trump to impeach these rogue judges en masse?

Another large contributor to the courts' loss of moral authority, is their manifest failure in our large cities to do their most basic job, ensuring public order and safety.

I don't know what is the right answer. But it's obvious to everyone that courts as construed today are a failure. They are manned by the worst among us. Instead of order they impose degeneracy on the people. They privilege hostile foreigners over citizens. Not only do they fail to protect decent people from criminals, but they forbid them even to protect themselves.

I like how the 6th Amendment's "right to counsel" means the taxpayers must pay for your defense attorney in addition to your prosecutor.

There's no right to abortion hiding anywhere in the 14th Amendment but gay marriage is in there, just as plain as day.
