Vitalik Buterin

One of my more radical beliefs is that many more classes of governance actions should be anonymous / secret ballot (eg. I've advocated for secret-ballot UN general assembly votes before) This situation is a good argument for judges' identities being hidden (!!) when they make their rulings. The function of a judge is to rule according to the facts as interpreted through their conscience, not to be "accountable" to violent mobs.

how come he always ends up winning at the Supreme Court? Also, these are the judges that also authorized spying on him and associates … other Americans!

Because there are 6 conservatives on the SCOTUS I don't remember spying. What do you mean?

Boasberg and others were judges that authorized wiretapping and spying on Trump and Americans during Russiagate. It’s well documented. So the fact all these federal judges are Liberals ignoring the constitution isn’t a reason the highest court rules in Trumps favor? Also, came out the FBI spied on Republicans Congress people…a judge would’ve approved that too. Violation of our rights!

Wiretapping isn't a violation as long as law enforcement obtains a warrant from a judge based on probable cause and demonstrates that other investigative methods would be unlikely to succeed or would be too dangerous.

Oh Russiagate right. There are judges appointed by other Republican presidents that rule against him and even judges he has appointed himself ruling against him.
