Article Summary

The article reports on Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch pushing back against President Trump's claim that justices should be loyal to the presidents who appointed them, emphasizing instead that his duty is to the Constitution. It highlights Gorsuch's defense of judicial independence, using strong moral and constitutional language, while not addressing the common expectation that appointed justices often align with the ideology of their appointing president. The piece subtly encourages respect for the Court’s independence and the current judicial system, even as it frames political criticism of the Court as inappropriate.
