I bet this isn't what Dems expected to hear.

Quote:
Justice Sonia Sotomayor said newly appointed Justice Brett Kavanaugh is part of the Supreme Court “family” whom she will judge based on his work and not by what occurred during his controversial confirmation process.

In an interview with CNN’s “Axe Files,”Sotomayor said Kavanaugh is part of the Supreme Court “work family.”

"When you're charged with working together for most of the remainder of your life, you have to create a relationship," Sotomayor told host David Axelrod.

"The nine of us are now a family and we're a family with each of us our own burdens and our own obligations to others, but this is our work family, and it's just as important as our personal family.”

"We've probably spent more time with each other than most justices spend, who have spouses, with their spouses," the justice said.

She has a whole lot more class than the Senate Democrats showed. In his book Clarence Thomas said that Justice RBG gave him a warm welcome when he first came to the court, and he never forgot that.

Yep. They probably all get along just fine.

I have different political opinions than some of my coworkers but we all get along and are like family

I would imagine it is like that in most workplaces across America.

^^^^^ You must be confusing one of them with someone else, because the above is impossible. Thomas has been on the court longer than Ginsburg. Thomas was nominated by George H.W. Bush, the 41st President. Ginsburg was nominated by Bill Clinton, the 42nd President.

I'm happy to hear it. Who wants the Supreme Court to be infighting? I hope they all are acting as mature, logical, thinking adults because the decisions they make will affect each and every one of us in this country.
