The declaration in Obergefell that “same-sex couples may exercise the fundamental right to marry in all States” is illegitimate. Kennedy, Ginsburg, Breyer, Sotomayor, and Kagan acted as legislators, an act infinitely beyond the authority of the Court. They should be impeached for their lawlessness, abuse of power, and violation of their Oath. States must defend their people from this illegitimate diktat.

Trump says, its the law of the land, and Ms. Davis must obey it.

Page 5 of Obergefell:

(5) There may be an initial inclination to await further legislation, litigation, and debate, but referenda, legislative debates, and grassroots campaigns; studies and other writings; and extensive litigation in state and federal courts have led to an enhanced understanding of the issue. While the Constitution contemplates that democracy is the appropriate process for change, individuals who are harmed need not await legislative action before asserting a fundamental right.

There is the judicial arrogance for all to plainly see. The country doesn't have to wait for the representative process to work, because these few judges have an "enhanced understanding" and know better than the rest of us.

The Separation of Powers doesn't apply to them, and the separation of powers didn't apply to Kim Davis when an appointed judge jailed an elected executive.
