We are seeing unprecedented attacks on the independence of the judiciary. It starts with the Democratic presidential candidates who are pushing court-packing plans. We also see current senators like Senator Whitehouse who filed a friend-of-the-court brief arguing that the court should be restructured if the court doesn’t find its decisions in accordance to what Sen. Whitehouse would like. We’re also seeing attacks by the media such as those on Justice Kavanagh a couple of weeks ago by the New York Times, who ended up having to correct the reporting they had done.
All of these show how critical this term, which starts today, will be. Top legal questions that the entire nation is watching. I was on Fox News to discuss important cases coming up before the Supreme Court.
