    We should be honest about federal judges. Judge Ellis is a nasty old crank. #manafort

        Also a man who brags about walking in on teen girls in their dressing rooms is not chasing after a non-existent pedophile ring.

        MSM makes it seem the country hates Trump. so why are they concerned about the Q movement where they all attack it on the same day w articles, if it’s fringe & zero truth to what it’s about then why waste time attacking it? Maybe there is more to it than they want to admit #Qanon

        Unfortunately, this sometimes happen w/lifetime appointments. Should senior status or actual/full retirement be mandated? LA's mandatory judicial retirement age for its elected judges is 70. If they're still able to serve in a judicial capacity, they can be assigned ad hoc.

        @JeffreyToobin Well, at least he doesnt sing Bon Jovi off key. 😄😄😄 and Yes Judge Ellis since Day 1 seems to have a chip on his shoulder aimed at the prosecution.

        Yeah, but I’m sure you’ve appeared before your share of curmudgeons, as I have. Overall most have still been fair, though I did receive a rare apology once myself (it was unsolicited and warranted).

        Yes, indeed. I see a lot of people say such behavior is "commonplace". But not in my experience, Ellis is a whole different level of cranky and controlling. It is bad.

        The late U.S. District Judge Earl H. Carroll was pretty cranky, but not as nasty as Ellis.

        I was lucky that I clerked for Judge Charles Hardy who was the exact polar opposite of Judge Ellis when it came to temperament.

        Most of the Fed judges in Phoenix were really okay. I had an out with Earl; when his wife made him sell his beloved, but barely used, Porsche in about 1989 or so, I bought it. So he loved me, and always wanted to ask about the car.

        That was one of the two years I clerked for Hardy. What were you doing back then? I remember that Carroll was the only Judge I ever saw in the court’s law library after hours researching case law.
