There can be no difference between same-sex couples and opposite-sex couples anywhere in the USA.

I've been thinking so much about how grateful I am to cover the court because the constraints of calm and civility are really palpable when you look across the street, and that, you know, I feel like the discourse has become so overheated that, you know, we talk about everything in the exact tone that seems to sort of preclude reason and to preclude the possibility of agreement.

The criticism from the other side of [race] debate - and these are not necessarily I think defenders of [Donald] Trump, but they're certainly quick to say, you know, if you're going to live by the race card, you die by the race card.

Am I right in saying that the locust of this problem is simply that judges in America are half political animals and half oracular demigods?

We don't care what the framers would have thought of violent video games. Times are changing.

What's doubly, possibly triply weird about the [Donald] Trump claim is that I said something really hateful and offended an entire class of people, and in a case that actually has nothing to do with race he should still be conflicted out.

On a court full of great writers, I shouldn't say full of - there have been some bad writers on the court over the years.
