Shapiro raises doubts about Kavanaugh and Barrett living up to conservatives’ high hopes for them
July 12, 2021 | Terresa Monroe-Hamilton
Author and conservative pundit Ben Shapiro is voicing his doubts over the lackluster performance of Supreme Court Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett after the end of what he calls a “markedly unambitious” term.
“So far, we have seen little from either Barrett or Kavanaugh to justify conservatives’ high hopes for them,” Shapiro stated in an interview with Fox News, referring to two of former President Donald Trump’s appointees.
“To be sure, they haven’t engaged in David Souter-type liberal rulings or Anthony Kennedy-style vacillation. But they have been markedly unambitious in their judicial approaches, most obviously in Fulton, which should have presented a clear opportunity to overrule Employment Division v. Smith, and in their unwillingness to accept the Barronelle Stutzman case,” he stated in reference to two high-profile cases that went before the court recently.
