The push to oust Justice Breyer seems to be backfiring, further irritating progressives

Erin Schaff/The New York Times via AP, Pool Progressives really want Justice Breyer to retire but they are also a bit hesitant about appearing too eager. But the closer we get to June, the month when retirements are usually announced, the more articles about Breyer’s retirement keep popping up all over the media. Yesterday the NY Times published one saying that Breyer probably won’t retire because he’s determined not to let his own retirement be politicized. My experience of more than 30 years as a judge has shown me that, once men and women take the judicial oath, they take the oath to heart,” he said last month in a lecture at Harvard Law School. “They are loyal to the rule of law, not to the political party that helped to secure their appointment.”…

Breyer Worries Retiring Could Add to Polarization Would It?

Breyer Worries Retiring Could Add to Polarization. Would It? The Supreme Court’s oldest justice has hinted that he may decline to step down, defying activists’ pressure.

Breyer to the Supreme Court, the final tally was 87 to 9. Though he’d been nominated by President Bill Clinton, a wide majority of Republicans voted in his favor. Particularly for members of the Senate Judiciary Committee, much of Justice Breyer’s appeal came from his work in the late 1970s as a lead counsel to that committee. In those years, just after the civil rights movement and Watergate, the ideological divide between Democrats and Republicans on many issues was hazy at best, and he developed a reputation for being evenhanded.

Trump Judge Is the Hero and Lefty Judge Has a Fit as the Sixth Circuit Breathes New Life Into a Tennessee Abortion Law

(AP Photo/J. Scott Applewhite) This week was a good week for the cause of life, at least in the Sixth Circuit. My colleague, Shipwreckedcrew, posted earlier on yesterday’s decision by the Sixth Circuit sitting en banc to uphold an Ohio law that prevents a diagnosis of an infant potentially having Down Syndrome being used as a reason for having an abortion. Read Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals Upholds Ohio Law Prohibiting Doctors From Aborting Down Syndrome Children. That was a 9-7 decision. And even though Chief Justice John Roberts believes in leprechauns and that there are no such thing as Obama judges and Trump judges (see Federal Judge Shows Why CJ John Roberts Was Dead Wrong About There Being No Obama Judges for background), all of Clinton’s appointees and all of Obama’s appointees voted to allow selective abortion based upon potential disability (and one of George W. Bush’s because…just because). All of Trump’s appointees voted to defend the sanctity of life, as d
