Gorsuch to headline GOP lineup of speakers at Federalist Society; media barred from his speech

Gorsuch is a partisan hack




Justice Neil M. Gorsuch is speaking to the conservative Federalist Society as part of a political lineup of former vice president Mike Pence, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) and Donald Trump’s onetime press secretary, an appearance that comes as his fellow justices repeatedly dismiss criticism that the Supreme Court is partisan.

What Gorsuch says Friday night will only be known to the organization’s guests. The media is barred from listening to his remarks.

Gorsuch’s participation in the weekend-long event comes in the midst of a monumental time for the court as it could roll back or overturn Roe v. Wade, the 1973 decision that guarantees a woman’s right to abortion, in the coming months. The court also could be asked to rule on issues related to the House committee investigation of the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol by a pro-Trump mob — with Pence a potential witness.

When the SCOTUS reverses or guts Roe v. Wade it will be due to the fact that TFG put three partisan hacks on the court
