Honorable retired Supreme Court justice Sandra Day O’Connor still has a lot to say.
Sitting justices often can’t voice their personal politics openly, but now that she’s left the bench, O’Connor has some strong words against the intimidation and manipulative tactics that Republican Congress leaders have waged against the judicial branch. O’Connor plainly declares that though judges can often make the President and Congress “very very angry”, that is an indicator that judges are doing their job right.
