Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor says that newly appointed Justice Brett Kavanaugh is already like family.
Sotomayor recently sat down with David Axelrod, for an episode of CNNs Axe Files that will air Saturday, and spoke about welcoming in the new justice.
Kavanaugh was confirmed after a highly publicized Senate Judiciary Committee hearing in September. He was accused by Professor Christine Blasey Ford of sexual assault in the 1980s when they were both teenagers. Kavanaugh vehemently denied the accusation and was eventually confirmed with a 50-48 vote in the Senate.
Sotomayor said among Supreme Court justices, typically a lifetime appointment, there is no choice but to create a relationship.

Since the left has politicized every damn thing, what on earth CAN you talk about ?
” Having to select judges from only a pool of lawyers is like having to pull turds from a outhouse.”
Particularly when graduates of state universities need not apply. It seems they all come from Ivy League or elitist (Stanford) law schools where the “living” Constitution is taught.
RBG is Granny and Kagan is aunt who (ahem) chose to stay single.
I didn't realize CNN gave Axelrod his own show. He and little Georgie Stephanopoulus... converted their political work into cushy media positions.
It used to be that people could disagree with each other's politics and not be total asses about it. Would be nice to find our way back there.
Hey Soto, wait till he puts the moves on you in the back room...
But the 3 women and Breyer are power just like Schumer & Democrats in the Senate and Pelosi and the Dem majority the next 2 years.
Many of us will not care for the Congressional Democrats, why care for these liberal justices?
Kavanaugh said the same thing when he was presented by Trump at the “swearing in” (I think it was the second swearing in?) for prime time TV. Something like “Unlike congress - there is no aisle. We look at each case, all working together in the same room in order to uphold the Constitution.”
I’m guessing that he was biting his tongue a bit. I know that is how it is supposed to be - but I know that it is not free of political bias.
Cain and Abel?
That’s one woman who never has to fear sexual assault.
How’s Great Great Granny ?
They are there for life
Have to learn to deal with them
I’ve known of these friendships but they puzzle me. How can you be friends with somebody who hates your country more than bin Laden ever did, hates your God more than Satan could comprehend, hates your guns, your rights, white people, capitalism, and loves murdering babies more than normal people love lobster and filet mignon?
Incomprehensible to me.
heh heh heh heh... i see what you did there
Everyone has their own bias, no such thing as “free of bias”, the goal is to work together, even though they all might not agree, it is a far cry of threatening to nuke your opponent because you don’t agree with them. That is what I believe he met by what he said.
Im finding informed conservatives are a threat to liberals and they dont engage because they are afraid to show just how little knowledge they have.
Even Roseanne and Jackie were political opposites but loved one another.
Why has Roberts kept such a low profile over the last year or so?
hangin with obama
