Sotomayor Apologizes to Justice Kavanaugh
During a recent speaking engagement at the University of Kansas, Justice Sotomayor characterized one of Justice Kavanaugh's opinions on immigration enforcement as 'inappropriate.' In her public statement on Wednesday, she walked back those comments, describing them as 'hurtful' and acknowledging they breached the court's tradition of privacy.
The apology comes as the conservative majority continues to issue emergency orders that the liberal wing has criticized as 'scratch-paper musings.' Legal analysts suggest the public nature of the apology underscores the fragility of professional relationships at the nation's highest court.
