"Federal judges have had to deal with more and more threats from conservatives whipped up by the Trump administration rhetoric blasting judges blocking illegal executive orders, only to be unceremoniously overruled by the Supreme Court. Last week, multiple judges called out the Republican justices for issuing unexplained opinions refusing to challenge - indeed, passively encouraging - Trump's attacks. So much for Chief Justice Roberts sanctimoniously declaring that the threats are just a product of the public not understanding the opinions."
"Law school tuition has skyrocketed in real terms for decades, but based on the last 10 years, the fever may finally have broken. Meanwhile, Amy Coney Barrett has some books to sell! And she's going to do it by playing up her image as the tortured, yet principled conservative who strips Americans of long enshrined freedoms, but just because she has no other choice. And, as she made clear in Dobbs, women and choice just don't mix!"
Federal judges are confronting increasing threats from conservative sources energized by Trump administration rhetoric that attacks judges who block alleged illegal executive orders. Several federal judges publicly criticized Republican Supreme Court justices for issuing unexplained opinions that effectively encourage those attacks by refusing to challenge the administration. Chief Justice Roberts' claim that threats stem from public misunderstanding of opinions rings hollow. Law school tuition has risen dramatically for decades, though recent ten-year trends suggest the sharp growth may be slowing. Amy Coney Barrett is actively marketing books while cultivating an image as a constrained but resolute conservative who curtails long-established freedoms, especially affecting women's reproductive choice as shown in Dobbs.
