CONFIRMED: Trump will pick Judge Neil Gorsuch tonight, youngest SCOTUS pick in 30 years

ijr.com/2017/01/790802-exclusive-president-trumps-supreme-court-pick-confirmed/

>Two high-ranking administration sources have confirmed to Independent Journal Review that President Donald Trump's Supreme Court pick is Colorado Judge Neil Gorsuch.

>Gorsuch, who recently traveled to Washington, D.C., was put on Trump's short list for the appointment after he met with the then-president-elect after the 2016 election.

>Speaking on background, an administration source instrumental to the SCOTUS selection process tells IJR, “Yes. It is Gorsuch. 100 percent. The Hardiman thing is a head fake.” Thomas Hardiman is the other judge Trump was considering for the vacancy, who is also in Washington, D.C.

>A second source within the Trump administration confirmed IJR's reporting.

>The source claims that Judge Gorsuch will join the president Tuesday night at the White House at 8 p.m. for the announcement.

So are liberals going to freak for any reason even close to reality or is this just an all around good pick?

Never mind. Prepare for the freakout.
>To the delight of Trump supporters and conservatives, Gorsuch has also routinely ruled in favor of religious liberty, as Business Insider noted — siding with Hobby Lobby and Little Sisters of the Poor when they claimed Obamacare’s contraceptive mandate violated their religion.

>For conservatives, Gorsuch meets conservative standards as an originalist and a textualist — someone who interprets the Constitution and statutes as they were originally written

Looks good to me

You know this town is only big enough for ONE new Supreme Court Justice, Dahnald.

>Neil Gorsuch
Damn, he could be on the bench for over 30 years!

How does he look on gun rights, do we have a chance to get rid of the NFA?

How is this guy on taxes?

Any chance we can opt out of Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid, and income taxes?

Gorsuch has never had the opportunity to write an opinion on Roe v. Wade.[29] However, based on his opinions expressed in his books opposing euthanasia and the taking of human life, people on both sides of the abortion debate presume he holds a "pro-life" stance

This. Not really excited about this. Has the feeling of another David Fucking Souter.

Is that why Trump picked him?

Also, Justices Kennedy and Ginsburg could die in these next 4 years, so another Trump appointee.

Hobby Lobby is my shit

Just wait until the old Harpy bites the dust.

Yeah, he's trying to keep the SCOTUS as conservative as he can. Currently, the court is 4/4 split, so with a Trump appointee, it will be the same as it was before Scalia died.

>Gorsuch is a proponent of originalism, the idea that the Constitution should be interpreted as the Founding Fathers would have interpreted it, and of textualism, the idea that statutes should be interpreted literally, without considering the legislative history and underlying purpose of the law.[28][11]

Yes. YES!

Bare arms confirmed

Liberals are going to freak out over everything Trump does as they have no other method of control.

>49 years old

...

>Thomas Hardiman is the other judge Trump was considering for the vacancy, who is also in Washington, D.C.
Rumour ontwitter is that Kennedy will announce his retirement and Trump will announce both Gorusch & Hardiman

>Neil Gorsuch
>From 1995–2005, Gorsuch was a lawyer at the Washington, D.C. law firm of Kellogg, Huber, Hansen, Todd, Evans & Figel.[12] He was an associate from 1995–1997 and a partner from 1998–2005.[1] The law firm, which includes partner Peter W. Huber, is known as an "uber-elite..litigation boutique"

Is this what he meant by draining the swamp.
c'mon Sup Forums at least call him on his shit.

That'd be beautiful.

Possibly Kennedy and/or Thomas. Thomas already hinted that this would be his last President.

>yfw that kike Ginsburg retires or "passes away in her sleep with a pillow over her head" and Trump nominates Steve Bannon as her replacement.

Please God give us Hardiman

YES

I AM ALMOST GETTING TIRED OF WINNING. HOLY SHIT

Sup Forums is unable to recognize even legitimate critique

wow.

this is great.

What is his stance on guns ?

I want gun control done away with.

Ginsburg is a constitutionalist though.

Now how do we get rid of (((ginsburg)))?

Just like Obama and Hillary ;^)

Why would Kennedy do that?

Ginsburg is a filthy activist and prefers the poSt apartheid south Africa constitution over the US Constitution

Topkek

Get a load of this guy

>Sup Forums is one person
The fact that you talk as if you're separate from Sup Forums means you should fuck right off.

gorsuch will vote with liberals once he's confirmed.

Fancy meme you have there, friend.

I was hoping for Pryor but its all good

This is going to be entertaining

>tfw no Judge Napolitano on the supreme court
Hopefully he'll be on board when Ginsberg finally croaks

Some user needs to find her dc area residence. So we can start a psy op campaign.

THANK GOD IT'S HIM INSTEAD OF THE OTHER GUY

Who is the "other guy?"

I bet it will be a theme we notice all his picks are young by Court standards, i.e early 50's

we need more of these old fuckers to kick the bucket in the next 8 years

aaaand dropped.

...

For example, the obvious and rational connection between Drumpf and Heeeetler!

Me too.

Maybe he'll save him for later

I am very curious to see if Thomas chooses to retire to open the seat to another young conservative. He's the only one I can see retiring before he has to for health.

RBG will be on her way out the door, thankfully.

After Trump upholding the LGBT executive order, gays have been saying he's just going to nominate a judge who will shit on gay rights or whatever

How is this guy towards the gays?

DRAW!

She'all never retire. She's a committed lib and will never open her seat on purpose to a conservative. She's there until she's fucking dead.

Is there a minimum age required for Justice picks?

Most legal scholars were expecting this and there wasn't too much outrage

Gorsuch seems to be a great pick for constitutionalist/libertarian types

So the left it gonna hate it

Kys roastie

Are there qualifications to be a Justice? Do you have to be a lawyer or attend law school to be a Supreme Court Justice?

The Constitution does not specify qualifications for Justices such as age, education, profession, or native-born citizenship. A Justice does not have to be a lawyer or a law school graduate, but all Justices have been trained in the law. Many of the 18th and 19th century Justices studied law under a mentor because there were few law schools in the country.

Mike Pence's Closed Circuit of Approval

Yeah, too bad Thomas is the best member on the bench. Hes the basest black man in all the land.

wrong constitution you muppet

damn should have been pryor. I want a hard core right winger.

Yea, North Korea's

So, does he need any dem votes to get confirmed?

Kennedy and Thompson might be retiring soon while Breyer and Ginsberg are both on death's door.

Trump might get Gorsuch and 4 other picks during his first term, which woukd be unprecednted in over a century.

If he adds Cruz, Lee, Hardiman and some wildcard like Kobach into the Supreme court, the liberals will be shit outta luck for the rest of our lives. Considering that medical technology is advancing, all these guys could stay on the court well into the 2060s.

Hardiman

>All gun laws are unconstitutional.
Although he probably excludes felons from having that right.

I hope he has that kind of stance.

>thompson
Meant Thomas.

>kick the bucket
By kick the bucket you mean killed off like what Obama did? Like wasn't weird that Obama passed Obamacare after a few of the conservatives kicked the bucket.

Topkek. Barron for SCOTUS

Reminder that Neo Classicism is the only acceptable architectural style

>Kobach

oh my god, the liberal tears

WOW ANOTHER CORPORATE COCKSUCKER FOR THE OTHER FOUR CORPORATE SHILLS ON THE SUPREME COURT!

ENJOY SUCKING CORPORATE COCK YOU FUCKING FAGGOTS

>So, does he need any dem votes to get confirmed?

Filibusterer so 7 Democrats. EAT SHIT trumpfag FAGGOTS

literally fake news

WHERES THE FUCKING SPOILER ALERT, YA FUCKIN' CUNT?!?!?

Winrar!

>literally fake news

your life is literally fake alternative reality.

Nuking the filibuster would be worth it just for the liberal tears if Kobach or Cruz got to replace Ginsburg.

Literally the exact opposite of what he said.

They'll freak out. It's all they can do. Freak out and attack people.

Fuck, you mean this originalist who seems like a perfect choice was smart enough to work with an elite law firm? Geez, I suppose I should hate him now.

Fuck off

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_facts_(law)

Unless he starts following the progressives there will be blood on the streets. You'd better get ready if that's what you want.

>>Two high-ranking administration sources
>(((sources)))
FAKE NEWS

anyone who watched it knows this is FAKE NEWS.

unlike feminazi ginsburg who assfucked Obongo and liberals refusing to accept a strategic retirement, based Thomas probably retires to open the seat to another Trump nomination. Kennedy will retire too and maybe Breyer fucking die. Trump appointing 3-5 SCOTUS justices would be the perfect way of make america great again.

>Trump gets this guy on the bench
>Kennedy dies because the family has a pact with Satan and it has been too long since the last sacrifice, is replaced by a conservative
>based Thomas resigns in order for a like-minded black man to take his spot
>Ginsburg has a heart attack from all the logic and sane men on the bench, dies
>Dems fillibuster like madmen to stop it, but Trump puts yet another voice of reason on the bench
>SCOTUS remains conservative for the next half a century

Wow, he sounds gr--
>vehemently against assisted suicide
Fuck him.

Checked and praised

fuck, where's that doctoral thesis by the embryologist when you need it?

Even if you're pro-choice, Roe v. Wade is a bad decision and sets bad precedence for what the 14th(?) amendment entails.

Holy shit, this is the worst possible outcome. This just proves what we've thought these last few days. Trump IS a FASCIST.

just kill yourself? what is the problem?

Who will he pick when CT retires?

literally a tiny issue. Do what your image posted portrays, no one will stop you, faggot.

this. this meme of success=corruption needs to get nipped
