Jason Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 New Yorker’s Mayer: Ramirez Was Not Initial Source—Other Yale Grads Were Quote “She didn’t come forward with it,” Mayer said Monday on NBC’s “Today.” “What happened was, the classmates at Yale were talking to each other about it, they were emailing about it. We’ve seen the emails, back in July before Christine Blasey Ford came forward, and eventually the word of it spread.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted September 24, 2018 Author Share Posted September 24, 2018 I am of the opinion that judges should essentially be "legal monks/nuns": - unmarried, no children - locked away in courthouses doing nothing but studying, considering, and discussing the law every day when they are not presiding a case - never be seen or heard from in public, and the only words you will ever read from them are their legal decisions In essence, their entire existence would be devoted to the law in the same way that the existence of a monk or nun is devoted to God. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't limit this complaint to just kav here. I think that is a more particular issue than the more generalized statement you first made. I can more get behind this idea that one shouldn’t be rallying for support as is being done here. I appreciate interviews I’ve seen over the years with Ginsburg, Kennedy, Roberts, Souter, and a couple of others that were more educational about the work of a SCOTUS justice, so I do see room for proper uses of media appearances. I also got to see Scalia give a speech the year he died at Houston Baptist University on the topic of religion and law in the US. I don’t know if it was a paid appearance (I don’t know Scalia’s policy in that front), but I was glad to hear his thoughts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely think cameras should be allowed in. I would be fine with embargoing the release of any footage until after the decision is released, but people should be able to see what happens in there without having to camp out to see it live.

Jason Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Quote President Trump on Tuesday attacked the second woman who has accused Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct, dismissing her account because she was “totally inebriated and all messed up,” and accused Democrats of playing a “con game” in an attempt to derail his Supreme Court nominee.
