        Judge Reinhardt, a liberal champion appointed to the bench by President Carter in 1980, was at a dermatologist's office, the court spokesperson said. His death was unexpected.

        Sorta shocking that Reinhardt, Posner, and Kozinski — who were all appeals court judges with outsized, national reputations — all left the bench within a 7-month period.

        So fast it’ll make your head spin. The Creature’s been using a list from the Heritage Foundation, making all their dreams come true. A host of young, extremely conservative individuals are being placed in lifetime appointments. The impact will be felt for decades.

        Sort of like Obama stacked the courts with Leftist judges? Sort of like that?🤔

        Um, no. Led by the Grand Turtle McConnell, the @GOP blocked scores of nominees and stockpiled a record # of judicial vacancies so they could do just what they’re doing now. Plus, of course, stealing a Supreme Court seat.

        Couldn’t figure this comment, until I saw “truthwarrior” had blocked me. That’s what posting “inconvenient” facts will get you in some quarters. Ha!

        Trump has been reshaping the lower courts since he took office, with more appointments in the past year than any other president in U. S. history, each more alt-right and unqualified than the next, and the press has been silent!

        Have your fun, folks. When this era is over, some of y’all might have to LEAVE America. You’ll be outnumbered and out of power, and there’s going to be payback, the likes of which has never been seen. It’s going to be deeply uncomfortable!
