right in time for next week's #MuslimBan decision
Speaking of next week's SCOTUS decisions, Trump fanboy Neil Gorsuch's role will likely be pivotal. What was it that Gorsuch found "magnificent" in Trump's first address to Congress? His false statements in support of the #MuslimBan? #Throwback —>
The night before oral argument in the #MuslimBan case—in which President Trump's motivations are directly at issue.

Former @YaleLawSch Dean Robert Post: Kavanaugh's installation into the Supreme Court is an "American tragedy" politi.co/2pGXFx3
"With calculation and skill, Kavanaugh stoked the fires of partisan rage and male entitlement."
"If we expect judges to reach conclusions based solely on reliable evidence, Kavanaugh’s savage and bitter attack demonstrated exactly the opposite sensibility."

This article loses its nerve right from its headline: this debacle is not just a blow to the Supreme Court's "image," but to its *legitimacy*.
A 5-4 right-wing majority—installed mostly by minority popular vote presidents, in the face of solid progressive majorities throttled using illegitimate means—does not "perfectly reflect" anything. To the contrary, it is a starkly imperfect reflection of where we are politically.
Partial credit to @adamliptak for this shade at the end of the piece, but it's far too mild in relation to the actual scale of the Court's legitimacy crisis.

Self-serving talk is cheap. If @JeffFlake uses this nonsense to take cover he deserves all the ridicule that he will inevitably receive.
Judicial gaslighting.
To quote Brett Kavanaugh himself, “I understand the passions of the moment, but ... your words have meaning.”

Pleased to join so many colleagues in signing this letter.
"We have differing views about the other qualifications of Judge Kavanaugh. But we are united, as professors of law and scholars of judicial institutions, in believing that [he] did not display the impartiality and judicial temperament requisite to sit on the highest court"
Over 900 signatories and counting, from over 150 law schools, as of this morning. lawprofessor.net

This press release is practically begging for people to highlight and emphasize Kavanuagh's own repeated and obvious lies even more. #Kavanocchio 🤥

No no no, that simply cannot be, because @JeffFlake *never* gets scammed in deals with the Trump White House
