CNN almost makes sense for once. Of course, the just have to be CNN: "Even among conservatives during Thomas's earlier years on the court, his views were seen as extreme and eccentric."

CNN just resents the idea that a black person could have real power.

I’ll defer to the experts but I thought I read that most of the cases over the years are decided pretty lopsided... like unanimous or 7-2 or the like. It’s only the big tough decisions that tend to come in 5-4 and it is possible they vote that way just for appearances, knowing the outcome one justice will go with the minority to make it look more split. Again, I defer to the experts.

Justice Thomas should be the Chief Justice, but GW Bush was a racist coward.

"... solid conservatives on the court -- Thomas himself, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Barrett."

Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barret "solid conservatives?"

Funny. They aren't acting as such.

[nickcarraway]

First of all, SCOTUS is nonpartisan, there is nomajority or minority.

Second, there is no conservative majority. And Kavanaugh and Gorsuch are to the left of Roberts. On big decisions he usually strays, but smaller decisions he's more likely to be conservative. Barrett is too early to tell.

Thomas and Alito are a block of two.

[snuffy smiff]

Personally, I have yet to see much of anything conservative from Kavanaugh and Barrett.

I think C. Thomas is waiting for the right moment to retire.

Most of these Justices are opinionated. Hell, it’s their job.

The Article was written by Jeffrey Toobin...

They should name a Blue Origin Rocket after him.

[Leep]

There are 5 solid conservatives on the court?
