Specifically, Chua would help potential applicants to have a "model-like" appearance.

This should be easy to confirm. There should be a record of all of his clerks, both male and female...

The coaching was necessary as previous women applicants to clerk for Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan had been told to wear plaid shirts and strap-ons.

We may yet have a shooting civil war to resurrect America. I’ll be with you on the barricades.

But really, this farce of a confirmation process is asinine and perfectly suited to America’s current deadly stupidity.

In a letter Thursday to the law school community, Yale Law School Dean Heather Gerken wrote that she wanted to "address the press reports today regarding allegations of faculty misconduct" and that "the allegations being reported are of enormous concern to me and to the School."

I don't care what the dean of Yale Law thinks, but when an unpublished vampire novelist speaks, I've got to sit up and listen.

Because most female law clerks are slobs in sweat pants with no make-up and morning hair.

Yeah. Right. Sure. Appearance is always important in a law office.

Fake news. Very fake news.

Probably taught them to dress and make up like professionals instead of T-shirts and jeans....
