LS: Yes. I’m almost sure it was Sotomayor’s clerk ...
Matt Wolking spotted the following linkage and posted a Twitter Tweet about it on May 2:
"A person called Amit Jain clerks for Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor. As a Yale student, Jain blasted Yale for supporting Brett Kavanaugh's nomination. Jain was quoted in a 2017 Politico piece by Josh Gerstein. Today, Gerstein published the draft SCOTUS opinion on Roe."
If you read Amit Jain's "micro biography," it reads like a recipe for "How To Turn A Bright, Malleable Immigrant From India Into a Left-Wing Lunatic." As a law student, he clerked for various "projects" that are near and dear to the shriveled hearts of the socialist left: eliminating cash bonds for violent felons, etc.
I’ve been doing some research on Amit Jain. He appears to be the type of guy who just can’t keep his mouth shut when he perceives some type of “injustice” (i.e., the agenda of the lunatic left-wing fringe is getting blocked in some way).
He writes long, single spaced letters to state legislatures whenever they’re thinking about passing some new law that he sees as an “injustice.”
Before going to law school, he was a middle school math teacher in Boston. (I’m sure the Boston teachers’ union was very influential during this formative period.)
As a law student at Yale, he represented teenage gang members in the New Haven juvenile courts through Yale’s Juvenile Justice Clinic; taught constitutional law to high school students in New Haven (always with a high-velocity left-wing spin); and interned with the Adolescent Defense Project at the Bronx Defenders (which represents teenage gang members).
Prior to joining The Bronx Defenders, he clerked for Judge Diana Gribbon Motz (a Bill Clinton nominee) on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. In law school, Amit was also a member of the Worker and Immigrant Rights Advocacy Clinic (which tries to prevent the deportation of illegal immigrants), and the Housing Clinic (which tries to prevent the eviction of illegal immigrants when they don’t pay their rent).
Notice a pattern here?
