Mitch McConnell saved our bacon - there’s no two ways about it.
The more Originalist judges are appointed, the more likely it is that a screwy 9th Circuit opinion gets an opposite ruling in some other district, which greases the wheels for getting to the Supreme Court.
It usually starts with a three judge panel. We now have more chances of a 2 to 1 majority. Not sure what percentage get to en banc. However, if it is important, I’m sure they will get an en banc.
Excellent! Keep ‘em coming. Trump will get to appoint at least 6 more to the Circuit Courts in his first term and there are a bunch on the District Courts to be nominated and confirmed.
Some of the lefties in the 9th are as robust as Ruth Ginsberg. Two or three could be compost before the next election.
Wow. Cool. :)
What are his views on religious liberty? Does he oppose freedom of religion?
I for one am grown tired all these euphamisms in politics. I don't know what they mean in this case but I suspect it just means that he opposes attempts by the state to coerce people into doing things against their religious convictions. You know, like Mohammed Ali got a unanimous Supreme Court ruling protecting him as a conscientious objector during Vietnam.
Funny how the tables have turned.
