The latest trick to disqualify conservatives, now that ABA ratings (a previous trick) are totally discredited.

But being a former ACLU lawyer (RBG) is just fine!

bttt

[tomkat]

Totalitarians are SO predictable.

[I-ambush]

I didn’t realize the judiciary branch had its own cadre of bureaucrats.

[kingu]

I disagree it is censorship; it is an infringement of freedom of association. An act the federal government is specifically forbidden from meddling with.

[oldplayer]

Judges and clerks MUST then also resign from the ABA, as it is primarily a radical liberal advocacy organization now. Most right thinking conservative attorneys have long ago quit supporting the ABA with their dues.

CPUSA is A:OK though

[KarlInOhio]

Lamenting that the drafted change “leaked,” Erickson also played it down as a “proposal open to discussion” during a 120-day comment stage, which will end May 20.

So what are the proposed changes? The artcle had a lot of outrage but few actual facts. It's not like the actual text or a link would hit a hard limit on publishing space like the size of page on a newspaper.

And I doubt that the American Communist Lawyers Union will be touched.

ACLU defended Communist traitors from domestic wiretaps but is okay with spying on the Trump campaign

[BeauBo]

...also, religious beliefs would be banned, and communist Party membership mandated.

These simple rule changes would help to weed out some of the worst threats to the revolution.

[Aevery_Freeman]

Amendment I: of the Right of the People peacefully to assemble...

...would seem to be of some import here.

[TaxPayer2000]

How exactly would they enforce such a rule?

[eyeamok]

sure sounds like a blatant and deliberate violation of First Amendment right to “freedom of association” to me, LAWSUIT!

[PIF]

Soon reading the US Constitution and Declaration of Independence will be a felony punishable by an indefinite stay at a small facility somewhere in the Southwest that no one returns from. Ever.

[txrefugee]

And no more Leftist appointments made on the basis of color or gender.

[Pearls Before Swine]

If Congress can have a Black Caucus and a Progressive Caucus, why can’t judges join the Federalist Society?

Will conservative judges be disqualified next on the basis of their magazine subscriptions?

[G Larry]

"The ethical advisory arm of the federal judiciary"

How about neutering these MARXISTS?

From where do they get their authority?

[Flick Lives]

“Are you now, or have you ever been, a member of...”

Sounds familiar.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Apparently they don’t like freedom of association any more than the First or Second Amendments.

[Little Ray]

How does this pass First Amendment muster?

[Lion Den Dan]

Freedom of association?
