"Wild Bill" Douglas is my favorite Supreme Court Justice. He wrote many good books even if he fell off a horse breaking several of his ribs in 1949 and then was severely injured when he was kicked by another horse in 1950.

America would have been a better place had he prevailed in Sierra Club vs Morton, indeed I think it's a good idea many people are once again about giving Lake Erie the right to sue polluters. They should natural resources standing to sue.

Democrats warn GOP: Don’t fill a Supreme Court vacancy in 2020 or we’ll retaliate

WASHINGTON — Democrats are warning Republicans not to fill a possible Supreme Court vacancy this year after denying President Barack Obama the chance in 2016, saying it would embolden a push on the left to add seats to the court whenever they regain power.

"We knew basically they were lying in 2016, when they said, 'Oh, we can't do this because it's an election year.' We knew they didn't want to do it because it was President Obama," Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., said in an interview.
