Today's news continues to be filled with hyper-partisan innuendo, falsity and plain nonsense.
The framers created our Republican with its separation of powers specifically because of the royal prerogatives of English kings that they knew dominated citizens lives.

Framers created a Democratic Republic (not Republican)

For far too long unelected bureaucrats have written, interpreted and enforced their own laws in their own courts. This is a blatant violation of the Constitution and has essentially gutted the Bill of Rights .
The framers were clear about this in writing the Constitution wherein the Preamble and Article 1 begins
"ALL legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress"
Look at the sweeping powers of the IRS

I am a supporter of equal rights FOR EVERY AMERICAN CITIZEN. So, if you gotta pee, you gotta pee. If women are raped without judicial retribution, there should be a remedy but campus remedies are being found to be totally inadequate and court proceedings have historically made the woman out as not the victim. But, both of these are rather complex problems that deserve more than a sentence to even describe, let alone place blame.

Uhhhh, the Congress IS the Legislative branch, and has historically been slow to act because of the process of creating and signing a Bill into Law. Perhaps you are focussing upon the MEMBERS of Congress, who seem to have more interest in re-election and the deep pockets (of money) that enable their re-election rather than representing their constituency. SCOTUS is the last step in the legal path in determining a law's Constitutionality, so the law has to exist, before SCOTUS can even come into the picture. That basic fact conflicts with the statement that you made here.

You are correct that these issues are AMERICAN issues, but we are seeing a reflection of our biased and polarized society in our lawmakers which makes ANY legislation difficult to pass because each side is too busy YELLING at the other side that they are WRONG.
Compromise has been the norm in Congress until the past 2 decades when we have seen a significant shift in total polarization.
