Administrative State

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, confirmed to the Supreme Court in 2022, has long since worn out her welcome.

Indeed, add Justice Samuel Alito to the list of people fed up with former President Joe Biden’s Supreme Court DEI appointment.

Alito issued a scathing opinion that featured five insults rarely hurled by one justice toward another.

For context, in a landmark decision handed down on Wednesday, the Supreme Court invalidated racial gerrymandering.

In the case of Louisiana v. Callais, et al. (“Callais”), a 6-3 majority ruled that the 1965 Voting Rights Act does not require Louisiana to add a new majority-black district to its newest congressional map, and that the Voting Rights Act, in fact, prohibits such districts designed to produce electoral outcomes based on skin color.

The leftist Supreme Court justices are facing accusations that they literally put their conservative colleagues’ lives at risk because they were so beholden to Roe v. Wade and abortion on demand.

Liberal Supreme Court justices slow-walked completion of their dissents in the landmark Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization case, according to a new book.

They delayed its official release for 53 days even as the five conservative justices in the majority faced death threats and assassination attempts following the leak of a draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade.

That’s according to a new report on Mollie Hemingway’s forthcoming book.

The May 2, 2022, leak of the 98-page draft to Politico triggered protests outside the homes of conservative justices, vandalism and arson at hundreds of pregnancy centers, churches and pro-life organizations, and an assassination attempt on Justice Brett Kavanaugh and potentially the other conservative justices.

“Abortion supporters had an incentive to kill one or more of the justices in the majority to change the outcome,” Hemingway wrote in Alito: The Justice Who Reshaped the Supreme Court and Restored the Constitution. “Everyone knew that the leak posed a serious security risk for justices. Since decisions do not take effect until issued officially from the bench, the death of a justice before then could alter the result. The threat of assassination increased dramatically.”

The president in December announced that his administration was freezing funding to Minnesota after widespread welfare fraud was exposed in the state. In early January, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) sent letters to five blue states announcing a temporary freeze on funding for child care and social service funding.

During a cabinet meeting at the White House, Trump told reporters about how people discovered the rampant waste and fraud occurring in Minnesota.  “I just saw something that the nursing home business and the daycare centers in particular, they went out and inspected them in Minnesota, and they didn’t exist,” he said. “They’re knocking on door, happens to be a young man, Nick [Shirley], nice young man. He’s done a very good job. They’re knocking on doors. It’s like homes. And they’re getting hundreds of thousands…they didn’t exist.”

And in California, it’s worse. It’s even worse. And I spoke with Russell Vought. I said, ‘Russell, don’t send him any money.’ He said, ‘but we have a court order that we have.’ Can you believe it? A judge. The judges are really hurting this country. Our judges. Justice Roberts doesn’t like when I say it, but the judges are really hurting this country. And frankly, the justices, the Supreme Court has really hurt our country, too.

Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts is back in the news after publicly commenting on “hostility” toward federal judges.

The remarks came on Tuesday when the chief justice was interviewed by Senior District Judge Lee Rosenthal at a Rice University event. During her line of questioning, Rosenthal noted Roberts’ past acknowledgement that public criticism “comes with the territory” of being a judge. She then asked him how he handles such critiques of the Supreme Court or his judicial opinions.

The Bush 43 appointee began his answer by recognizing that judges aren’t “flawless” and that criticisms of their work “can very much be healthy.” What’s garnering attention is the next part in which he said that “the problem” that occasionally arises is when “the criticism … move[s] from a focus on legal analysis to personalities.”

“You see, from all over … [there’s] not just any one political perspective on it, that it’s more directed in a personal way, and that, frankly, can be actually quite dangerous,” Roberts said. “Judges around the country work very hard to get it right, and if they don’t, their opinions are subject to criticism. But personally directed hostility is dangerous, and it’s got to stop.”
