#Gorsuch said…an independent #judiciary means:
“...that when you’re unpopular, you can get a fair hearing under the #law & under the #Constitution. If you’re in the majority, you don’t need judges & juries to hear you & protect your rights. You’re popular.”
Gorsuch added a judicial system is:
”...there for the moments when, when the spotlight’s on you, when the govt’s coming after you, & don’t you want a ferociously independent judge & a jury of your peers to make those decisions?”
