This is a mistake Trump lawyers are doing by emphasizing ‘Obama apointed’. It will put pressure on Trump appointed (SC) judges to appear ‘neutral’.
Disagree.
I think it will put pressure to do the opposite...and, to appoint non-Commie related Judges.
Maybe they are trying to protect the judge from the mob and the Deep State. He might be protecting himself with that biased rebuke too.
You can bet that no lower court judge feels qualified to decide something this big and his actions, and his biased rebuke, will only serve to get this quickly heard in a higher court.
The nation isn’t going to accept an opinion from anything less than the full SCOTUS bench. The faster it gets there the better.
At this point in the game, I don’t think the Trump lawyers will be making ANY mistakes.
Put a Ellis in front of the court, Rudy has had his day and should be relegated to researcbt
I think it was a well-placed dig.
Law is law!
We are going to decide if we are a nation or laws or not.
If the SCOTUS fails us it is time for the blood letting.
Brann is not Obama’s pick. They were doing paired nomination in 2012 and Brann is a Federalist Society judge picked by Senator Pat Toomey (R).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matthew_W._Brann
“He also spent years as a Republican Party official in Pennsylvania and was active in the Federalist Society and National Rifle Association.”
“Brann was recommended by Republican Senator Pat Toomey as part of a paired nomination with a recommendation by Democratic Senator Bob Casey Jr.”
Nonsense.
