named Akhil Reed Amar, who claims to be a liberal, and is also one of Kavanaugh's former law professors at Yale. I wouldn't take it too seriously.

The Times had 6 reporters covering Dershowitz's shunning in Martha's Vineyard. Six! I've had enough.

They did have a weird column recently though - from their editorial board about Democrats not surrendering the judiciary to Trump. A long column devoid of any ideas. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/06/opinion/democrats-fight-trump-supreme-court.html
