Opinion | Justice Kagan Sounds an Alarm About the Court
In a New York Times opinion column, Jesse Wegman reads Justice Elena Kagan's hour-long Catholic University interview as a break from judicial omertà — her critiques of the conservative majority's gerrymandering, voting rights, and Citizens United rulings, its lost legitimacy, and its "embarrassing" originalism amounting to alarm bells about the court. He argues her remarks point toward congressional court reform — term limits, an expanded bench, binding ethics rules — as the only way to reclaim power over a court gone rogue.
