In the wake of yesterday’s startling news from the Supreme Court, Ben Shapiro at Breitbart is pulling no punches with his assessment of what this ruling means for America’s future… it ain’t pretty.

The myth is finished. The Constitutional order was shredded long ago by a Congress that does not care about upholding it; an executive branch interested only in growing federal power; and a Supreme Court that sees itself as a super-Congress, unanswerable to the Constitution.
 
But today, in one of the most egregious acts of judicial revisionism in American history, Chief Justice John Roberts and the Supreme Court pulled back the curtain for the American people. Nobody will protect the Constitution but the citizens of the United States.
 
It’s a sobering realization. For too long, Americans have trusted their politicians implicitly to do the “legal” thing – after all, a huge percentage of Congresspeople are lawyers. Americans figured that their representatives would find a way to balance the Constitution and their own desire for re-election. And Congresspeople found a way to abdicate responsibility: they passed whatever bills they felt like passing, whatever bills forwarded their political ambition, and then tossed them to the Executive Branch. If there was a violation of the Constitution, they implicitly said, that’s not our problem – blame the president and the Supreme Court.
 
…These people simply do not give a damn about the Constitution. They care only about their political power.
 
…the American people have been lied to. Our politicians have promised to uphold the Constitutional structure that guarantees our freedoms, and they’ve ignored that promise. Our presidents have done the same. And the Supreme Court has, over the past eighty-odd years, thrown the Constitution out the window in favor of barely-mitigated liberalism. If we didn’t learn that from Roe v. Wade, in which the Court magically produced a right to abortion via emanations and penumbras, we should certainly have learned it today…
 
…The time for playing the innocents is over. The blinders are off. We cannot rely on our elected and appointed officials to protect us from our own irresponsibility. We have been abandoned by our elected officials, by our Supreme Court, by our presidents. And we were complicit in that abandonment, since, after all, we voted for them.
 
…The Constitution lives and dies with us. It always has. And we have an obligation to defend and protect it.
