This segment aired on C-SPAN’s Washington Journal on June 18, 2024.

JAKE FALESCHINI: “I’m a member of the Left. I love our country. I love our country dearly. I know many other of my colleagues and folks who consider themselves members of the Left also love our country. I ask that you find that common humanity between us, because we really do want the same thing in many circumstances. We want our courts to be operating effectively and efficiently and doing justice for all American. I truly believe that you want that, and I want that too, and so I’d ask that we find some reasonable agreement. There has actually never been a mandatory code of judicial conduct that is enforceable with real, outside mechanisms other than just self-enforcement that applies to the Supreme Court of the United States of America. It is the only court in our federal justice system that does not have a mandatory enforceable code of conduct. And that’s the reason why you’ve seen some of these extreme examples at our U.S. Supreme Court be allowed to happen.”
