I’ll leave it to others to debate the merits of San Francisco’s new district attorney Chesa Boudin, who (according to this San Franciso Examiner article) won election in the face of “intense opposition” from the city’s police union and political establishment and who has plans “to immediately begin reforming the criminal justice system.” I am very surprised, though, to learn that Justice Sotomayor somehow saw fit to send Boudin a video of ardent congratulations at his swearing-in yesterday.
In her video, Sotomayor tells Boudin that she is sending “this message to tell you how much I admire you” and that “you too [i.e., like Sotomayor herself, as the context makes clear] are an example that gives hope to so many.” (Sotomayor highlights here that Boudin, the son of Weather Underground criminals Kathy Boudin and David Gilbert—and the adoptive son of their Weather Underground cohorts Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn—“spent his childhood visiting parents incarcerated for committing serious felonies.”)
Sotomayor praises Boudin’s “strength of character and moral composure” and declares:
Your personal strength and commitment to reforming and improving the criminal justice system is a testament to the person you are and the role model you will continue to be for so many.
Sotomayor calls Boudin “a great beacon to many” and expresses her belief that “the city of San Francisco will be so very well served by a man whose life creed is believing, as you told me, ‘We are all safer when we uplift victims, hold everyone accountable for their actions, and do so with empathy and compassion.’”
Perhaps I’m mistaken, but it strikes me as highly unusual that a sitting Supreme Court justice—or any federal judge, for that matter—would publicly lavish such praise on an elected official, especially in the absence of a previous working relationship

Chief justice John Roberts assures us that there is no such thing as an "Obama judge".
“this message to tell you how much I admire you”
She’s licking her lips.
Moma and Papa terrorists. GP a Communist.
Raised by Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dorhn.
A better radical pedigree then even Obama....
—“spent his childhood visiting parents incarcerated for committing serious felonies.”
Smuggling drugs to them via posterior post no doubt.
This guy is the radicals radical. He is on another planet.
“won election in the face of “intense opposition” from the city’s police union and political establishment”
So a sitting SC justice comes out in support but according to Roberts there are no Obama judges.
Make sure she wipes off her shoes after treading the streets of Frisco.
Sonia = Soros.
So, the Wide Latina is a commie, fascist, terrorist offspring supporter?
Might as well be a Bill Errs Justice.
Were rubber booties provided for the walking tour of Bagdad-by-the-Bay?
Chesa.
Itza-dude
always avoid The Feces District when visiting SF
Sounds like a formula for more crap and less available sidewalk.
So, then, the “wise Latina” will be recusing herself if any case that even tangentially involves this Leftist prick comes in front of the USSC? I hope that all attorneys who might fight SF are taking notes.
A little History. The 1994 World Series was cancelled because the players went out on strike because of a proposed salary cap like the NFL used. The strike continued after months of deadlock the owners decided to go with replacement teams. Teams were made there was a pre-season. Schedules were made and Tickets were sold. On the evening before the season was set to begin and too late for any kind of appeal a Judge came out of nowhere issued an injunction blocking the teams from taking the fields. Everyone at the time said where the hell does a Judge get this kind of power? but MLB didn’t have the stones to challenge it. That judges name was: Sotomayor
Unwise Latina
George Lopez in a burqa
Holy crap! She sits on the SCOTUS and enthusiastically endorses this spawn of terrorists?
What a disaster she is.
This is all on Obama.
Why do the Democrats continue to enact laws and create policies that appear to be designed to destroy the rule of law and economy in the blue states? Maybe the plan is to drive these states into bankruptcy and civil disorder requiring them to enact martial law and take control of everything.
But there is no way he intends these criminals to be his next door neighbors. Nor does the "Wise Latina." That's why she's wise.
This along should get her sorry ass tossed off the SCOTUS.
