Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s death has again focused attention on Donald Trump’s judges. The president will not only shortly nominate another candidate to the Supreme Court, but if re-elected will also get the chance to appoint many more to the district and appeals courts.
Mr. Trump will surely nominate the same kind of judges he has before—jurists who believe in following the original meaning of the Constitution rather than updating it to suit contemporary values. His judicial nominations have unified his party and even...
opinion Originalism is incompatible with bedrock decisions such as Brown v Board and even Marbury. Plus the framers intent is unknowable as well as irrelevant. The only intent that matters is the intent of the state legislators that ratified. Their intent is also unknowable.
opinion Msm,demblms don’t want that
opinion 😂😂😂😂😂 Trump’s didn’t win the popular vote. Remember we aren’t a democracy.

opinion Originalism. Doesn’t that mean that the 2nd Amdt. only allows state militias (National Guard Units) to bear single-shot muskets? If we interpret law strictly as it was written when it was written, that would be true. This “philosophy” is merely an excuse to block liberal policies
opinion By eroding rights yo healthcare?
opinion sigh
opinion Have to wonder whether Trump engaged with Barr and the guys in any Oval Office “locker room talk” about Amy Coney Barrett before introducing her in the Rose Garden. If he did, Trump knows of course that his fellow Republicans would surely have no issue with that.
opinion bullshit...you guys should just come out and own your hypocrisy and racism....just OWN IT
opinion We need to start blasting prayers out public speakers 🔊 5x a day
opinion Abject infantile nonsense! “Originalism” is a vapid, churlish, sophomoric notion that fails to achieve its ends because it lack linguistic standards or a sustainable logical frame. A first year student reading Godel’s “Incompletness theorem” would destroy this potty nonsense!

opinion Me trying to decide if my supscription to WSJ for business news is worth having to scroll past the shitty Op-Eds.
