Justice Gorsuch said he & Byron White are the only two Supreme Court justices from Colorado--& he is the only justice to sit with a justice for whom he once clerked (Anthony Kennedy). — PolitiTweet.org

As a case of the "living" Constitution, & judges making law & not interpreting it, Justice Gorsuch cited the "Dred Scott" case in which justices upheld blacks being 3/4 people & thus legally classified as slaves. "They did this to avert civil war--& they were wrong," he said. — PolitiTweet.org

Justice Gorsuch left audience at Nat'l. Archive speechless by saying "only 25-33% of Supreme Ct. cases are decided 5-to-4--the same since 1945, when 8 of the 9 justices were appointed by the same President (FDR)." Today's justices were named by 5 different presidents." — PolitiTweet.org
