Supreme Court justices play nice together in Kavanaugh era
The Washington Examiner ^ | October 26, 2018 | Melissa Quinn

Supreme Court justices are signaling that everyone is getting along just fine in the new term despite Justice Brett Kavanaugh's brutal and partisan confirmation battle, and are calling for others to open themselves up to different points of view.

“We make progress by listening to each other, and by listening to each other across every kind of divide, divides of ideology, of methodology or in the case of political institutions, politics,” Justice Elena Kagan said during an event at Georgetown University’s law school Wednesday. “Echo chambers are pretty boring places.”

Just down the road, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg offered similar advice Wednesday while speaking at the federal courthouse in the nation’s capital....

Maybe the whole court should spend the day at Disneyland.
Live it up! On the house.
Some Justices may decline getting on the rides.

“We do not speak for the people, but we speak for the Constitution. Our role is very clear: We are to interpret the Constitution and laws of the United States and ensure that the political branches act within them."

Chief Justice Roberts.

I guarantee that is *not* the way the Left and Progressives see the Supreme Court.

We need one, better two more Justice Thomas like appointments on the Supreme Court.

We have the first originalist and textualist majority on the court since 1934.

That is how long the institution has been corrupted by Progressives.

But Kagan and Sotomayor (spelling?) would have to go on gay day, eh?

Justice Elena Kagan, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg ....

These are a couple of good ones to be lecturing the constitutionalists on the court about bipartisanship.

Give e me a break. How much listening across the divides does the liberal Elena Kagan do?

Or we could ask, does any of this dialogue ever cause her to rethink the liberal position of issues which come before the court? How many of her votes run counter to the liberal position, because if insights she received from these dialogues?

Both the Bull-Dyke and the Wise Latina were appointed by an illegitimate "president." Under the Constitution and our laws, that makes them illegitimate as well.

The media still completely ignore this fact, but a team of European and American forensic experts determined that Hussein's phony birth certificate used the birth certificate of Joanna Ah'Nee (born 1961) to digitally create his forgery. In fact, there are 9 points of direct forgery, where her birth certificate details were literally pasted onto Hussein's to create his forgery.

Not only is this is a crime, his forgery is his only 'proof' that he is a US citizen.

In the coming months, let's say (just for the sake of argument) that the long arm of real justice finally catches up with Hussein. In my scenario, he finally claims his foreign citizenship as a tactic to escape prosecution.

If that were to happen, then our government should immediately toss the Bull-Dyke and the Wise Latina off the court.
