You seem to completely ignore the fact that these individuals may actually believe what they are doing. Of course, I believe Tommy Cryer is honest in his views. Moreover, the jury believed him.
Nevertheless, with enough lies the public may be made to think that a foot is a hand, or a direct tax is indirect, and choose to convict the individuals who suggest otherwise.

Galileo was eventually forced to recant his heliocentrism and spent the last years of his life under house arrest on orders of the Inquisition.

Based on reason was Galileo incorrect? Of course not! The Inquisition wasn't concerned about the truth, they merely wanted to persecute Galileo for making public views they didn't want the in the public domain.
However, like the Inquisition, the courts only see what they wish, regardless of truth. They want to support a tax tyranny in spite of the Constitution and unalienable rights.
They then intimidate the jury into believing they can only judge fact and not the law itself. This is fraud.

"Having found, from experience that impeachment is an impractical thing, a mere scarecrow, they consider themselves secure for life; they sculk from responsibility to public opinion ... An opinion is huddled up in conclave, perhaps by a majority of one, delivered as if unanimous, and with the silent acquiescence of lazy or timid associates, by a crafty chief judge, who sophisticates the law to his mind, by the turn of his own reasoning...

So yes, since all government is corrupt, and has exceeded the chains of the Constitution, it is a political question.

"Of political justice part is natural, part legal -- natural, that which everywhere has the same force and does not exist by people's thinking this or that; legal, that which is originally indifferent, but when it has been laid down is not indifferent[.]" -- Aristotle, N.E., V, 7, 1134b, 18
