“I personally think that conservative grievance is a little bit of a fringe theory, you know. It is divorced from facts and reality. But I think the justices’ allegiance to a Republican Party that has leaned into minority rule has led them to embrace some fringe theories that are pretty antithetical to a liberal constitutional democracy,” she told Alliance For Justice in a different interview on Wednesday. “And are just strange, weird, and odd on their own terms.”
She said that at that time, far too many people assumed that the court would remain unbiased and non-political. Even during the debate over whether the Supreme Court would eliminate Roe, the landmark ruling over abortion privacy, Litman said that folks ignored the coming ruling.
