Activist judges, deep-pocketed special interest groups, and others have been waging an attack on America’s courts. Slowly disappearing are the rights guaranteed by the Constitution. This has prompted, for the first time, sitting judge Robert H. Dierker, Jr. to blow the whistle on what he claims is our out-of-control courts, a move that may ultimately cost him his job as a trial judge in St. Louis, Missouri.
“As a judge, I have taken an oath to support the Constitution of the United States. I cannot in good conscience sit idly by and watch the destruction of that Constitution by a judiciary that is no longer independent,” says Judge Dierker. “Despite a tradition of silence by judges on such topics, I can no longer keep quiet about what I, as an insider, have seen happening in, and to, our courts.”
Recently, Judge Dierker, a circuit judge in the Twenty-Second Judicial Circuit of Missouri and author of The Tyranny of Tolerance, joined CFIF Corporate Counsel and Senior Vice President Renee Giachino to discuss his personal experiences on the bench and specific cases in which he claims the U.S. Constitution has been perverted by the Left’s radical war in the courts.
