Then, Sotomayor GOES IN.

"[N]o one can breathe in this atmosphere," NYC native Sotomayor writes, echoing the "I Can't Breathe" protests after Eric Garner's death.

Most interesting thing going on in Strieff is Breyer. Remember that next time y'all yell at me when I question how we characterize him!
