Gorsuch is an asshole

Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch did not wear a mask for a hearing Tuesday, even as all the other justices in attendance did so, and as two of his colleagues appeared remotely due to apparent concerns about Covid-19.
Gorsuch has failed to wear a mask on the bench during oral arguments since Friday, while the other justices who physically appeared for arguments all did so in apparent recognition of the spread of the omicron variant of the coronavirus.......
Last week, Justice Sonia Sotomayor, who normally sits next to Gorsuch during hearings, and who until recently had been the sole justice to wear a mask, began participating in arguments remotely through an audio connection to her chambers last Friday.
Sotomayor is diabetic, putting her more at risk from Covid.

You can't make me.
Libertarianism, which seems to be Gorsuch's controlling ideology, is the philosophy of spoiled children.

What a foul and despicable person he is. To purposefully put his fellow justices in harms way is just evil. I think the qualities for being a justice on the Supreme court have fallen to the bottom of a pit. Shame on the people who enabled this jerk and the other unqualified asses now sitting on the highest court in the land.
Talk about needing a house cleaning!
