民主党参议员疯了,这么批评保守派大法官
双重标准赤裸裸。前段时间才批评trump指责法官,现在他就这么骂大法官。
Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii) on Monday called conservative Supreme Court
Justices Neil Gorsuch, Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas "the three horsemen of the apocalypse" waiting for a fourth justice to join their ranks.
Hirono's comments came hours after the high court decided to partially grant the Trump administration's request to lift a stay and implement his travel ban barring people from six predominantly Muslim countries from coming to
the U.S. The court agreed to examine the entire executive order at a later
date.
"Neil Gorsuch, who I did not support as a Supreme Court justice, he's joined two of the most conservative justices, Clarence Thomas and Alito on the
court to take the position that the entire injunction should have been
lifted," Hirono said on MSNBC's "Andrea Mitchell Reports."
"This is like the three horsemen of the apocalypse, and they're waiting for the fourth one to come along so that they can go on their trend toward what I call our extremism," she added.
"I'm not surprised at all that Neil Gorsuch is right in there with Thomas
and Alito in pretty much telling the president, ‘you go right ahead, impose a Muslim ban.' I'm glad the other justices are not there quite yet," Hirono added.
The Supreme Court will hear the case when it returns for the fall term in
the beginning of October.
Recent reports have stirred speculation that Justice Anthony Kennedy may
announce that he is retiring from the bench on the court's last day of this term, giving Trump the second chance to nominate a justice.
Justice Neil Gorsuch, Trump's first nominee for the court, was confirmed in Apri.
