She's paid over the table (through the gift of undeserved lifetime appointment) to do the opposite when politically bias benefits her party. Sotomenor is a partisan hack.
It's not that she doesn't know the Constitution - it's that the Constitution is just an impediment to what she wants to do, and it doesn't really bind her in any event.
Brown-Jackson has offered equally worthless opinions. I’ll not criticize Kagan as severely as she has offered good-faith legal arguments in her dissenting opinions.
Well, Mr. Dershowitz are you not convinced by now that you should leave the Democratic party and vote for Trump? What will it take for you to take the blinders off your lying eyes?

Sotomayor demonstrated her unfitness for the court when, after her nomination, she said that the court could benefit from the perspective of a "wise Latina". Right there, she was saying that she would decide cases based on her own beliefs rather than on the Constitution. The words of the document don't change based on your ethnic, religious, or other background. Those words must be the basis of a Supreme Court justice's opinion no matter who they are. Her performance on the court provides conclusive evidence that her nomination should never have been confirmed.
Thank you professor. As a retired appellate lawyer, when I lost a case, I always appreciated a judge fairly discussing my argument and explaining to me, why I hadn't prevailed. Most of the time, I still thought that I was right, but at least I respected the court for considering and responding to my argument.
You are always right on. Really appreciate this professors knowledge of The Constitution which is what I care about the most. One does have to wonder about Sotomayor. She rarely follows the Constitution & I think that is why Obama picked her. She goes on emotion.
All politicians and judicial appointees must be given basic tests on the Constitution and Bill or Rights. How can you take an OATH to uphold the Constitution if you don't know what's in it.
Nice to refer back to the ultimate book on justice. The torah goes at great lengths to create fairness for all. Every law student should be required to study the expressions of neutrality in judging.
I enjoy listening listening your scholarship of the law. Please get a producer to help you stage a non classroom environment for the sake of your audience.
All Presidents, past, present and future, benefit from this decision. I am disapointed in the three dissenter, although I think the decision could have been better framed.
SCOTUS needs desperately reform to prohibit justices from voting based upon Democrat or Republican Party values, beliefs, or principles. Moreover, the reform needs a constitutional amendment to set forth SCOTUS powers, whether strict construction or legislating from the bench is the ultimate standard. For decades many justices have adopted the principle that they can interpret constitutional and statutory issues based upon wide discretion and what is politically expedient or necessary. Sotomayor represents this awful judicial philosophy that decisions can be based upon the political preferences and what is desirable for American society. This keeps getting worse and worse. The court creates decisiveness rather than create unity.
That Professor Dershowitz has chosen to go public with his comments on current affairs, IS a chance to listen to a great legal mind, ONE that, like ALL professors should make the student think, instead of just blindly accepting the professor's words as anything other than an opinion. And this questioning of authority should start early in one's life, as everyone has an agenda that they want to impose on YOU.
From NY... Portoricain genes and culture. What can you expect of a person that grown with a different culture and living area? She reminds me of Filipino Judges in the Philippines during Aquino's time... corrupted mindset and more.

In general, liberals by nature are all about who you are and appearances… not equal justice for all, not fairness for all, simply wether they like you or not.
In other words ; Sotomayor is not fit for the job and should resign 👉
She was appointed by a democrat President and represents democrat values, sentiments and level of intelligence!
@@DanielGonzalez-cs8pr judges and justices should be impartial, regardless of who appointed them. If they are unable to be politically detached, they should not be on the bench, period!
She's a Political hack.
Sotomayor never should have been put on the SCOTUS bench!
D.E.I gift from Obama.
A DEI hire.
I was so disappointed by her emotional response that does not reflect the law, questioning her judgement skills.
Soto is a crooked, activist judge.
Justice Sonia needs to study up on The Constitution a bit more. I think she has forgotten it.
She's paid over the table (through the gift of undeserved lifetime appointment) to do the opposite when politically bias benefits her party.
Sotomenor is a partisan hack.
You cannot forget what you never learn…
It's not that she doesn't know the Constitution - it's that the Constitution is just an impediment to what she wants to do, and it doesn't really bind her in any event.
I dont understand how this guy has never been picked to be on the SCOTUS, He's one of the Greatest legal minds in history
You just answered your own question.
he said he never wanted to be a judge
@@ginoperretta373 i didnt know that
@@freightdawg6762 he said it in this video
She wasn’t appointed for her knowledge of the Constitution. She was appointed for her activism
The ultimate diversity hire. Notice the ethnic leaning of the three jusitices who always seem to dissent.
Thank you Mr. Dershowitz
Too much to expect from Sotomayor. She is far too political, far too (predictably) dogmatic.
She is incompetent
The voice of reason and the law.
I didn't know the idea of blind-follded Justice comes from Deuteronomy....Thank you for that.
I always enjoy your analysis. Thanks
Thank you for the detailed and informative information. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
Sonia Sotomayor DEI admissions to Princeton, law school, judgeships and Supreme Court.
I wish we had a majority of supreme court judges be like Alan
I always gain knowledge when I listen to you. Thank you Mr. Dershowitz.
She doesn't know the law she should be mandated to take some constitutional law continual education classes
It appears that her decision reflects her character. 😮😮
She looks in the mirror and doesn't like what she sees. Narcissism shades her thinking. Envy. Jealousy.
She was spouting party propaganda.
Thanks you!
Soto looks like my crazy aunt. I'd never trust her for legal advice.
She got gifts from friends who she was dealing with in court for her book deals and never disclosed it and Brown never disclosed her husbands income.
Can we not just get people that just understand the constitution????
Brown-Jackson has offered equally worthless opinions. I’ll not criticize Kagan as severely as she has offered good-faith legal arguments in her dissenting opinions.
Love for Prof D. Constitutional Guru
Well, Mr. Dershowitz are you not convinced by now that you should leave the Democratic party and vote for Trump? What will it take for you to take the blinders off your lying eyes?
Aww....leave him alone. He must have his reasons. Just appreciate his open-minded focus on the Constitution.
Looking at the lack of intellectual substance in some of Sotomayor's opinions, it eludes me how she ever got on to the Supreme Court.
DEI and pander appointment
Ever heard of dei?
And yet he presists in voting democrat.
He probably doesn't but has to say he doesn't because he lives on Martha's Vineyard
I can't imagine him giving a crap what his neighbors think. He is who he is.
Always call out the hypocrites on either side
Amen!!👍

Hers is a pizza-cutter argument: All edge, no point.
Sotomayor was never accused of being overly intelligent, and even if she were, the accusation would be easily debunked.
She's unfit to serve on the bench!
Very well put
I love you Alan !
We know how justices are selected but it should not be because of her gender or ethnic category. She’s not fit for the job
This is why I sub to you. You see things as system was meant to be. You would have made a great scotus judge.
How can anyone criticize a "wise Latina woman"?
There's no such thing.
Agreed!
Sotomayor-so when Biden commutes his son's sentence, you would be against that? Yes, I really believe you. (NOT)
Sotomayor demonstrated her unfitness for the court when, after her nomination, she said that the court could benefit from the perspective of a "wise Latina".

Why haven’t you made a statement about Trump assassination?
Not every person needs to comment about every event.
You are always right on. Really appreciate this professors knowledge of The Constitution which is what I care about the most. One does have to wonder about Sotomayor. She rarely follows the Constitution & I think that is why Obama picked her. She goes on emotion.

I would have loved to hear Scalia's take on this case.
It would be identical to Amy Coney Barrett.
Sotomayor 👎👎 Katenji 👎 they are bias. That is not good!
Another example of DEI.
Sonia Sotomayor famously styled herself a "Wise Latina".
I want to prepare you for a world-shaking idea Alan: Sotomayor was chosen for her political usefulness on the Court, not for her legal abilities.
You can trust the courts for the moat part, but that is slipping due to nonsense
Sotomayor isn't in great health. She's a diabetic
Does she even have a law degree?
She needs to resign so Biden can appoint someone else.
Why would you want Biden to pick anyone?
@@wc1068 i don't, but it's the smart move after they screwed the pooch with Ginsberg.

Alan sorry to tell you you are now a conservative, simply said, you cannot be fair and leftist it just doesn't go together, you are very fair.

During Trump's next term, she'll pull a Ginsberg, to be replaced by another Conservative. Good times.....

Profesor, please buy a good mic 🎤. Is hard to hear you sometimes. Thanks a lot for guiding and slicing complex subjects so accurately and clearly.
Oh, c'mon Professor--that's a Wise Latina you're talking about there. Although in Sotomayor's case wisdom as well justice is relative.
Alan. You, Tulsi, and RFK jr. Aren’t there any other honest liberals left?

Sotomayor is what you get with DEI! She's not qualified to be a judge in a small claims court.
