    I love the simple explanation:

    “If she is that ignorant of how to handle these matters, then she doesn’t belong on the bench,” Swartz said. “If she’s doing it because she’s lazy, then she doesn’t belong on the bench. If she’s doing it just to delay, then she doesn’t belong on the bench.”

    But what can be done? She’s in a safe state for her kind, isn’t she? It’s not like they would suddenly realize what kind of person she is - they already know.

      She’s a federal judge and not subject to state oversight. She answers to the federal government.

        Although with a lifetime appointment and a high threshold for removal, accountability is hard to come by

            But seriously, I do think that there might be some vigilante justice against the justice if she is gonna be that blatant, and then, for instance, gets appointed to the Supreme Court.

            I bet this is her Supreme Court tryout. I would bet my salary on it, in fact.
