The Left, liberals, Democrats, whatever you want to call them, have used the courts for decades to dictate their agenda in states where they've had little to no luck in legislating. The Center for Biological Diversity is one if not the biggest animal rights/environmentalist organizations that file suits all over the country, with their local satellite groups. They have a huge team of lawyers (upwards of 50) and total assets of nearly 47 million dollars.

They've been so successful in this racket that the mere threat of litigation from the CBD and its coalition has dictated senseless wildlife management policy in far too many states.

BC: "The quality of the judiciary has in fact declined considerably".


WM: From what profession do Judges come?

The Endangered Species Act of 1973 was passed by the United States Congress, with the Senate unanimously approving the bill on July 24, 1973, and the House passing it on September 18, 1973, by a vote of 390-12.
After a joint conference committee reconciled the versions, the final legislation was approved by both chambers and signed into law by President Richard Nixon on December 28, 1973.

Who armed the lawyers?

Hanging is to good for them. Deport them to Haiti

And here is the latest lawsuit from the Center for Biological Diversity in its weaponization of the ESA -- https://biologicaldiversity.org/programs/biodiversity/pdfs/241-species-complaint.pdf

The CBD is bound and determined to show that the ESA has been the most ineffective piece of legislation in US history by preventing delistings across the board and wanting to add another 500 species to the list. The ESA has been a cash cow for the animal-rights lawyers and their organizations who have profited to the tune of billions of dollars. This is lawfare at its worst.
