Yesterday on his “America’s Survival” webcast, conservative pundit Cliff Kincaid spoke to Matthew Kidd of the Foundation for Moral Law, the right-wing legal group founded by Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore. Kidd said that Congress should consider impeaching Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Elena Kagan for taking part in the Supreme Court same-sex marriage cases, arguing that they should have recused themselves because they both officiated same-sex couples’ weddings.
Later in the program, Kincaid said that Congress should compel Ginsburg and Kagan to testify before congressional impeachment hearings, adding that Justice Antonin Scalia should also be questioned so he can warn the nation about how the marriage ruling threatens democracy.
“Wouldn’t it be great to have some hearings and put these people on the grilling seat, and by that I mean Kagan and Ginsburg, and find out how on earth they can justify breaking their code of ethics and breaking the law,” Kincaid said. “I think the situation is so serious, a constitutional crisis, I’ve never seen anything like this. With a president you can force him to resign, they tried to impeach Nixon and of course he had to resign. With the Supreme Court, we’ve got to try the impeachment route and it’s so blatant in this case.”
Kincaid previously wrote that Kagan shouldn’t have heard the case because she’s a “known lesbian.”
