Title: On Hispanic TV, Justice Sotomayor Surreptitiously Hits Campaign Trail
Post by: mrclose on October 21, 2018, 02:49:29 PM
Does this sound like someone who believes in equality and who cares about all Americans?

"Exhorting Latino voters to go to the polls 'to change this life for us Latinos.'"


Quote
Despite acknowledging that she should not do so, on her current book tour United States Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor nevertheless waded into politicking, bashing both the Federal Government’s response to Hurricane María in Puerto Rico and exhorting Latino voters to go to the polls “to change this life for us Latinos.”

In separate interviews with Telemundo and Univision, Sotomayor’s partisan edge was evident. On its October 16 national evening newscast, Telemundo featured Sotomayor’s message as part of that network’s Get-Out-The-Vote (GOTV) campaign, currently being deployed in partnership with an array of politically liberal-aligned voter mobilization organizations (including Voto Latino, UnidosUS, Hispanic Federation and Mi Familia Vota).

Wait, DUpipo said this type of behavior expressly prohibits you from being a Supreme Court Justice. Someone needs to run over to DU and post this so they can condemn her and make her resign. Time for Trump to replace her.

In her capacity as solicitor general, Elena Kagan was personally involved, even if only to a limited degree, in advising how to defend against challenges to Obamacare.

Let us not forget that RBG did the same thing during the 2016 election, saying that she would leave the country if Trump won.

In defense of RBG,  It is hard to leave when most of your time is spent sleeping on the job..

So much for "One Nation under God, with liberty and justice for all"...

There is no "surreptitious" about it.

Sotomayer is being exceptionally blunt in order to counteract the political positions that Kavanaugh has expressed.

It's pretty bad when SCOTUS decides to wade into the sewer known as politics in D.C.
