President Biden has been co-opted by his party’s progressive ideologues, the same woke Left from which he distanced himself in order to get elected. Nevertheless, the razor-thin Democratic majorities in Congress always made it unrealistic that Biden could deliver on many progressive priorities. I’ve maintained that, to stave off potential mutiny, the administration would load the judiciary and the administrative state with hard leftists.

This is clearly playing out on the federal bench.
