Anthony Kennedy came to Sacramento to talk civil discourse.

One 17-year-old in his audience said this about Washington: "Nobody's behaving like adults. It's absolute chaos and it makes no sense and it's terrifying and it's not working." https://t.co/HOytWSFHM2

Fuck. Kennedy. May he disappear and his name invite scorn and vitriol forever more. Plus hope his kid triggers a whole bunch of Deutsche Bank investigations for both of them.

Can I just say here is what strikes me: that both of you guys shouldn't be applying for any judgeships soon.

Here we go, a neat little web page I just ran across:

Code of Conduct for United States Judges

The Code of Conduct for United States Judges includes the ethical canons that apply to federal judges and provides guidance on their performance of official duties and engagement in a variety of outside activities.

DO NOTE AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE

Public Comment Sought

Comment on proposed changes to the Code of Conduct for U.S. Judges. Comments will be accepted until November 13, 2018.

There are lots of interesting points in the current version. Like:

Cannon 3(a)(3): A judge should be patient, dignified, respectful, and courteous to litigants, jurors, witnesses, lawyers, and others with whom the judge deals in an official capacity. A judge should require similar conduct of those subject to the judge’s control.

and

Canon 2: A Judge Should Avoid Impropriety and the Appearance of Impropriety in all Activities

(A) Respect for Law. A judge should respect and comply with the law and should act at all times in a manner that promotes public confidence in the integrity and impartiality of the judiciary....

and

Canon 5: A Judge Should Refrain from Political Activity

Don't cry for me Argentina! I kept my promise (and my demeanour...)

Do not judge lest ye be judged. Life's a bench and then you die (Supreme Court version). And those w/o sin throw the first stone. And yadda yadda yadda, yabba dabba dooooo....
