One Supreme Court Justice Just Spoke About the 2024 Election

This month, Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch appeared in a rare interview where he reacted to  President Joe Biden’s radical agenda to “reform” the high court. 

Biden’s agenda would include term limits, ethics codes, among other things for the justices, which Townhall covered.

“Shannon, you’re not going to be surprised I’m not going to get into what is now a political issue during a presidential election year. I don’t think that would be helpful,” Gorsuch said. 

“I have one thought to add. It is that the independent judiciary means. What does it mean to you as an American? It means that when you’re unpopular, you can get a fair hearing under the law and under the Constitution. If you’re in the majority, you don’t need judges and juries to hear you and protect your rights…it’s there for the moments when the spotlight is on you. When the government’s coming after you. And don’t you want a ferociously independent judge and a jury of your peers to make those decisions? Isn’t that your right as an American? And so, I just say, be careful,” Gorsuch said. 

This week, another Supreme Court justice appeared in an interview, this time, to discuss the upcoming presidential election.

In an interview with CBS’s Norah O’Donnell, Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson claimed that she thinks there is a possibility that this year’s presidential election could end up before the court.

This week, another Supreme Court justice appeared in an interview, this time, to discuss the upcoming presidential election.

In an interview with CBS’s Norah O’Donnell, Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson claimed that she thinks there is a possibility that this year’s presidential election could end up before the court.

“I think there are legal issues that arise out of political process,” Jackson said in the interview, according to The Hill

“And so, the Supreme Court has to be prepared to respond — if — if that should be necessary,” she added.

“Are you prepared that this election could end up before the Supreme Court?” O’Donnell questioned. 

“As prepared as anyone can be,” Jackson responded. “Let me ask you, are you prepared for all of the news cycles that you’re getting as a result of this election?” 

O’Donnell replied, “Um, no.” 

This was the same interview where Jackson showed concern about the High Court’s presidential immunity decision surrounding Trump, as Leah covered.

“I was concerned about a system that appeared to provide immunity for one individual under one set of circumstances, when we have a criminal justice system that had ordinarily treated everyone the same,” Jackson said.

In her dissent, Jackson wrote “the court has now declared for the first time in history that the most powerful official in the United States can (under circumstances yet to be fully determined) become a law unto himself.”
