Top Law Schools Promote Ditching the Constitution

Think tanks contend that the radicalization of attorney education threatens American freedom in a never-before-seen way

By: Darlene McCormick Sanchez, Epoch Times, August 25, 2023:

In almost every state, law students who pass their state bar examination, which allows them to practice law, take an oath to support the U.S. Constitution.

But the country’s top law schools teach future lawyers and judges the opposite.

Many now teach that the U.S. Constitution, the supreme law of the nation since its ratification in 1788, is broken and should be

At least that’s what two members of conservative think tanks believe after reviewing courses at the country’s Top 10 law schools, as ranked by U.S. News and World Report in 2022. They examined the teaching at Yale, Stanford, Harvard, and Columbia universities and others.

Law professors at elite schools are open about their disdain for the U.S. Constitution, the researchers found.

“They’re saying they want to get rid of the Constitution—they’re making no secret about it,” said J. Christian Adams, president and general counsel of the Public Interest Legal Foundation. He’s also worked for the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ).

Hans von Spakovsky, a senior legal fellow at The Heritage Foundation’s Edwin Meese III Center and former DOJ counsel, agreed.

The radicalization of law schools is a threat to freedom not previously encountered in the nation’s history, Mr. von Spakovsky said.

“In fact, some of them are very direct in teaching kids that they need to be revolutionaries, according to these courses that these law school students are taking,” he told The Epoch Times.

Pitching the Ditching of the Constitution

In 2022, Ryan D. Doerfler and Samuel Moyn—who teach law at Harvard and Yale universities, respectively—wrote a New York Times editorial titled “The Constitution Is Broken and Should Not Be Reclaimed.”

In it, they wrote that the struggle over the Constitution has proven to be a dead end for liberals. They called the founding document “undemocratic” and “inadequate.”

“The real need is not to reclaim the Constitution, as many would have it, but instead to reclaim America from constitutionalism,” they wrote in the piece.

The writers reasoned that it would be far better if liberal legislators had the power to make a case for abortion and labor rights on their own merits without having “to bother with the Constitution.”

    Reality is the entire region of the Northeast United States is polluted with an extra-constitutional, administrative, influence peddling, crony, “quasi-jurisprudence” – in which judges rule by fiat & citizens are held without bail, for six months, a year, or longer, without any constitutional basis, having committed no crimes, while being told the constitution does not apply there.

    This is happening now.

    Meanwhile, the Godless states, dispense opiates to Godless offenders sodden with alcohol & drugs, in jails run by Culturally Marxized administrators – many operating under tent of Critical Matriarchal Theory and Freudian Bunk.

    Thus much of Northeastern society walk as Zombies through a haze of fuzzy boundaries & ultimately pile up into chronic recidivism, draped with a constant barrage of lies on mass media screens by painted, Marxized Matriarchal Commentators, reading a rote Orwellian script of News Speak, supporting an ersatz appearance of due process and law & order.

    Full restoration of constitutional operation in the Northeast will needs be accompanied by wholesale arrest & prosecution of offending judges, prosecutors, state provided defense counselors and others building their government nests while abusing The People’s Liberty.

    The Remedy for Redress is seen by searching & applying,
