Breaking: Supreme Court Justice Refuses To Go To Work Because Gorsuch Won’t Wear A Mask

OPINION | This article contains commentary that reflects the author's opinion.

A recent decision by U.S. Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch has conservatives cheering.

Gorsuch, who was nominated to the Court by President Donald Trump in 2017, has refused to bow to the demands of leftists.

He has refused to wear a mask during in-person proceedings, despite a request from far-left Justice Sonia Sotomayor, who was nominated by President Barack Obama in 2009.

This decision by Gorsuch has sent Sotomayor off the rails. Now she is boycotting in-person attendance.

Instead, she is attending oral arguments remotely from her chambers. Sotomayor said she feel unsafe sitting next to unmasked people.

When the justices returned to the courtroom last fall to hear arguments in person, Sotomayor was the only one to wear a mask.

Chief Justice John Roberts asked members of the court to accommodate Justice Sonia Sotomayor’s concern about Covid-19 by wearing a mask.

Sotomayor has been notably out-of-touch with the American people. She was caught spreading massive lies and misinformation about Covid-19 during recent hearings over Joe Biden’s federal vaccine mandate on Americans.

In a desperate attempt to defend Biden’s drug mandate, she falsely claimed that the omicron variant is more “deadly” than the delta variant. This is inaccurate according to CDC data.

Sotomayor also claimed the nation has “over 100,000 children, which we’ve never had before, in serious condition, many on ventilators.”

Again, this is absurdly delusional rhetoric. In reality, there are between 3,000 and 4,000 children in hospitals from coronavirus, according to The Washington Post.

This statement has been the subject of numerous fact-checks, which have resulted in “false” ratings.

Sotomayor is participating remotely from her chambers as she clearly suffers from a completely false understanding of the actual data concerning coronavirus and its variants. She is guilty of using scare tactics as well as false and hyperbolic language to push Biden’s left-wing agenda.

“Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor announces she will only attending oral arguments remotely this week.”

“Per NPR, Justice Sotomayor is boycotting in-person attendance because Justice Gorsuch REFUSES to wear a mask on the bench.”

From CNBC:

Gorsuch’s continued defiance has led Sotomayor — who has diabetes and is therefore at a higher risk of serious illness from Covid — to attend oral arguments remotely, according to veteran NPR Supreme Court reporter Nina Totenberg, citing court sources.

When the justices returned to the courtroom last fall to hear arguments in person, Sotomayor was the only one to wear a mask. With the surge of the highly transmissible omicron variant in the winter, however, Sotomayor felt unsafe sitting next to unmasked people, according to NPR.

Roberts “in some form” then asked the other justices to wear masks, Totenberg reported. Gorsuch, one of three justices nominated by former President Donald Trump, was the only one to refuse.
