Watch 'Unbiased' Leftist Judge Become Completely Unhinged in Open Court in Election Case

The issue in court on Friday was supposed to have been over the obviously loaded and biased words used to describe the impact of an anti-income tax ballot measure on the Washington state November ballot. People supporting the ballot measure demanded state law be upheld to use neutral terms to describe what the measure actually does. Oh, but that's not what they got in court. Not by a long shot.
What court watchers, especially those watching on state CCTV got instead, was a nakedly partisan activist in a black robe who apparently was under the illusion he was auditioning for the Real Housewives of Thurston County, engaging in an unhinged histrionic display instead of delivering something remotely close to justice.
The gesticulating arms. Dirty looks. Savage teeth-showing disdain. Judge Chris Lanese's unmitigated looks of smugness in court were on display for all to see. Bar complaints will inevitably follow, and deservedly so. Judicial temperament? What temperament? Lanese never made an attempt to use neutrality of any kind in that courtroom.

A supermajority of leftists passed the unquestionably unconstitutional graduated income tax — which the state's constitution forbids. Backers lied and called it a "millionaire's tax," with no language limiting who would be subjected to it.

Democrats have been spending with all the restraint of raccoons who discovered the dumpster behind Golden Corral.
They masked information about social services fraud, in hopes of hiding losses from the public.
The Democrats kept paying for freebies for illegal aliens.
And they turned down free federal money for schools because...Trump.

The judge shouted down the attorney who was arguing that the AG's language wasn't remotely true and that the legislature makes spending decisions, not the AG.
It's August, three months to the election. The AG and judge supporting the AG's partisan lie know there probably is not enough time to force an honest description of the initiative. A similar situation is going on in California with AG Bonta trying to torpedo an initiative that would restore the full force of Proposition 13 and a lawsuit that probably will progress too slowly to force an accurate, non-partisan description of the initiative.
