A judge is supposed to be unbiased and non-partisan, especially on the bench. At least that is what I thought. Travis County Judge Sarah Eckhardt donned a pink knitted hat that signifies the Women’s March that took place in DC. It is a definite statement of liberalism and a stance against President Trump. This judge is a known died-in-the-wool liberal. I’d hate to be a conservative or a man in her court. Impartial she is not. Officials say she didn’t break any rules except those of propriety. I find that hard to believe and someone should file a complaint with the American Bar Association.
Last June, Eckhardt attacked Donald Trump during a naturalization ceremony. She also slammed the Second Amendment, the US Constitution and the death penalty. At one point during the ceremony, the judge urged the newly sworn citizens to register to vote so they could vote against Donald Trump. This understandably upset some of the participants. This woman has no business being a judge and should be disbarred, quite frankly.

Judicial activist judge. Should be barred from making personal political statements from courtroom. Just another example why judges shouldn't be allowed to be God in a courtroom. Some cannot handle or take responsibility for that power.
ReplyDeleteShe's un fit.
ReplyDeleteAside from my disgust at the hypocrisy of these hats, a judge is to interpret the law without letting their personal agendas create bias. Unfortunately, she seems ill suited for the job.
ReplyDeleteHave you ever seen a liberal judge that could remove their personal agenda from law interpretation ? NOPE !
ReplyDeleteThe Pussy Hats are back in DC protesting Trump again. These "Marches" and "Protests" are all designed to tarnish our President and to force him out of Office. I am ready to to war with these people.
ReplyDeleteIs she a moonbat from California? She may be a good jurist but seems to lack some common sense; a prerequisit for moonbatitis.
ReplyDeleteThe protests are organized by the media.

ReplyDeleteHer actions while on the bench are unacceptable and undermine respect for the law and judges. Her peers and superiors should reprimand her in public and on the record. That said...
This occurred in Austin, TX which is a blue boil in a red state. But it sets up grounds for appeals unnecessarily which is wasteful, at a minimum.
The article linked to has a misleading caption because she has yet to be schooled, although she should be.
