he clerked for two supreme court justices, byron white and anthony kennedy and he worked in both private practice and at the justice department before being nominated to the tenth circuit court of appeals where he served with distinction for ten years. he's widely regarded as a brilliant and thoughtful jurist and a gifted writer whose opinions are known for their clarity. most importantly, however, judge gorsuch understands the proper role of a judge, and that role is to interpret the law, not make the law, to judge, not legislate, to call balls and strikes, not rewrite the rules of the game. mr. president, it's great to have strong opinions. it's great to have sympathy for causes or organizations. it's great to have plans for fixing society's problems. but none of those things has any business influencing your ruling when you sit on the bench. your job as a judge is to apply the law as it is written. and here's the fundamental thing, mr. president. even when you disagree with it. a judge who likes every outcome he reaches is very likely a bad june. judge gorsuch has said more than once.

anthony kennedy is sort of the one swing vote. theyou have the stakes of fate of the court at play. because democrats are going to ,o ahead and filibuster gorsuch which we found out yesterday that they have at least 41 or 42 and maybe more coming on board -- the republican retaliation is going to be to go to the "nuclear option" as insiders have called it for the past 10 or 12 years. they are going to sort of blowup the last bit of filibustering you are allowed to do at the super majority level of 60 votes. they will bring that number down to 51 for supreme court nominations to get him onto the court. in one fell swoop, republicans will take control of the court, and they will also set a precedent for decades to come that is going to make the supreme court nomination process -- which used to be a unifying thing where justices would get 97-1, andnimous votes now it is going to head into a direction where almost every justice will be confirmed on a simple majority. it will look like any old legislative battle. past, individual senators have come together to try and avoid the sort of f

justice anthony kennedy administered the judicial oath of a marking the first time a sitting justice and his former law clerk will serve on the supreme court together. all eight justices and the widow and son of justice antonin scalia attended the ceremony. this is 20 minutes. [applause] president trump: thank you very much. friends and distinguished guests welcome to the white house. , we are gathered for a truly momentous occasion in our democracy -- the swearing-in of a united states supreme court justice. in particular, i am honored to welcome to these grounds every sitting justice of the united states supreme court. welcome. thank you. [applause] president trump: mr. chief justice and fellow justices, it is a privilege to have you here to join in this historic moment on this very beautiful spring day in the rose garden. spring is really the perfect backdrop joyful gathering of friends, because together we are in a process of reviewing and renewing and also rebuilding our country. a new optimism is sweeping across our land, and a new faith in america's filling our hearts and lift

circuit, and later for justices byron white and anthony kennedy at the united states supreme court. after working in private practice and the department of justice, in 2006, george w. bush nominated judge gorsuch to serve on the u.s. court of appeals for the tenth circuit. the senate confirmed him by a voice vote. that's unanimous. mr. president, let me say that again because it's -- it's relevant to the misplaced, in my opinion, partisan rancor we're hearing over this nomination. in 2006, only senator lindsey graham bothered to attend the senate judiciary committee's hearing to consider neil gorsuch's nomination to the tenth circuit court of appeals. this body, including then-senators joe biden, hillary clinton, and barack obama were so confident with his qualifications to serve as a judge that he was confirmed without anybody asking for a recorded vote. with what is, in essence, three of the most influential political figures then serving in the senate from across the aisle, i find this questioning of judge gorsuch's qualifications baffling. i hope my friends will put aside some o

the center of the court is now anthony kennedy, one of the most conservative jurists in supreme court history. i think some kind of persuade of passion force and enthusiasm, i think that's the only way to fix this. >> do you subscribe to the common view now that neil gorsuch will be to the right of every justice on the court? >> whether he's to the right of alito or thompson, those are the questions we're asking. i think he's consistently where scalia, thompson and alito are, not to the left of them. >> teller of hard truths, thank you. we'll be right back. stay with us. >>> i know what you want. i know what you've been thinking. you should just own up to it. you've been sitting there tonight all through the show thinking yes, yes, this is all fine, maddow. but man, i wish there was some new, even creepier details on that lurid sex scandal involving alabama's handsome 74-year-old governor. it's friday. i will not let you down. dirty text messages, open threats, including something rustling in the bushes. also something about a command to bow to the throne. and that's a quote. put the

republican president ronald reagan sent the name anthony kennedy to a democratic-controlled senate who had the power to do the same thing. a what did the democrats do? they gave justice kennedy the hearing, a vote and sent him too fill the vacancy in the supreme court. the republican understand all the mcconnell and they refused him his opportunity. a r really, the strategy was based on the premise impossibility that a republican would be elected in the last election. te the election of donald trumpe gave him the opportunity to fill the vacancy of anthony scalia, a vacancy which should have been filled, i believe, by merrick garland, president obama's nominee. that's what led up to the vote. where did the name neil gorsuch come from? it's true. he served on the tenth circuit for ten years. he had been approved by the united states senate. he certainly had a strong resu resume, but how did he get on the finalist list? most the time you never know. presidents don't always disclose how they come up with names, but in this case was very open. during the course of the campaign, donald trump

is he going to follow the queue from anthony kennedy?now. >> heather: interesting to find out, but a lot of work needs to be done. thank you so much for joining us. we appreciate it. >> jon: well, the rumors are swarming about an impending white house shakeup. reports that stephen bannon is feuding with the president's son-in-law has dared question or takes on more responsibility in the west wing. but another white house senior advisor, kellyanne conway says that the rumors are just that pretty rumors. >> heard nothing but rumors and innuendos. that would make any of us believe that anything other than the real shakeup going on in washington is a way that donald trump is coming in as a duress rupture. in other people want to write stories about the process, personnel, who is up, who is down, who is in, who was out, but you have to go back to the way that president trump is. he appreciates the diversity of opinion. he likes when people disagree or give him differences in viewpoints. he has never had a bunch of yes-men or yes women around

dot see this unrolling and i think the other thing i'd add is 84, anthony kennedy, 78 steve brierks thisretical question either. >> if you could wave magic wand, you could just determine what people were going to how people were going to deal with these matters is this a fix you could invent that would get us out of that very dire description that you just gave us. >> the depressing fix, rachel, is i think this is a situation where democrats have been awfully moderate and temperate over the last few decades. and so that when, you know, john roberts was put up, sam ali toe, right to quite far right nominees from republican presidents, we saw so to ma your, breyer, people who were sort of center left. so i think in one sense, retro actively just keep putting up bren nans and marshall islands. put up people who are the center of the court is now anthony kennedy, one of the most conservative jurists in supreme court history. so i think some kind of parody of passion and force and enthusiasm. i think maybe that's the only thing that might have fixed this. >> dahlia, briefly, very briefly, do

a 49-year-old new justice and importantly one who has a prior relationship with anthony kennedy as a hat was something the president kept referring to in his ad libbed remarks in fact today. because clearly they at the white house are hoping that gorsuch will pull kennedy who's been in many cases the decider over to the right side. >> good luck with that. >> on the balanced side on right correct, you know what i mean. >> right. well, i think that maybe the hope of some. in any event, he'll get to work and his first influence will be this friday, the justices will meet in their usual closed door conference where had he vote on kays to hear. it takes four votes to grant a case. and there have been a couple of cases that keep coming back on the list over and over with no decision. peaps he'll provide the fourth vote to hear those cases. who knows? but among those we'll be watching to see what happens there's a case from colorado that tests how much businesses can refuse to provide their services for same sex weddings for religious reasons. there's another case that is a very interesting

i think we can expect that trend largely to end, although anthony kennedy is sometimes a wild card. i mean, it is likely that the court will basically return to the status quo of where it was when justice scalia was on the court with a 5-4 conservative majority most of the time, though not all of the time. and you know, we are waiting for the next vacancy, which would be the real world war iii in terms of confirmation with justices in their 70s and 80s. >> liberal leaning or the swing vote moderate is what you're talk being there and who would president trump replace if there is another retirement. and that actually is an important factor in the conversation that we're having right now, gloria. what does how this fight plays out, when it moves to the senate floor -- how do you think that changes, or does it not, what this fight looks like next time? >> well, i think first of all, if they use the nuclear option this time, which looks like they're going do, it seems to me that the next time around, it's going to be even more vitriolic. >> gloria, can i ask a dumb question to someone w

judiciary committee, president ronald reagan, a lame-duck president and his last year nominated anthony kennedy to serve on the court, sent the name to the democratic senate where there was a hearing from the senate judiciary committee had a vote that sent him to the courts. you never hear that story, do you because it doesn't fit into mister mcconnell's playbook as to why he would wait for a year and refused to give merrick garland a hearing at a vote. the reasoning is obvious. clearly he was banking on the possibility that the electorate would choose a republican president and that is what happened so that a republican president, in this case donald trump, would fill the vacancy, not barack obama. when i hear the speeches on the floor by senator mcconnell about his bipartisan cooperation, he leaves out an important chapter, the last chapter, the one that brought us to this moment in the united states senate. when i look at the situation before us today, a sad situation for the senate, said in that we have reached a point where the supreme court nomination has become so political, more so than

he sent the name anthony kennedy to a definitel democratically cd senate which had the same power to do the same thing mcconnell did, deny a hearing, deny a vote. what do they do? they gave justice kennedy a hearing, vote and sent him to feel the vacancy on the supremes court. m republicans refused to merrick garland the same opportunity and they said to president obama, you are in your fourth year. you are a lame-duck. your choice really doesn't count. but there was more to it. the strategy was based on the premise impossibility that a republican would be elected in the last november election, and if so the republican president could fill the vacancy on the supreme court. that's exactly what happened. the election of donald trump gave him the ability to fill the vacancy of anthony scalia, a vacancy that should have been filled by merrick garland, president obama's nominee. that's what led up to the vote yesterday. been there was more.ro where did the name gorsuch come from? it's true. he served on the tenth circuit for ten years. he had been approved by the senate and he had a strong

better mentors tan the late justice -- than the late justice byron white and sitting justice anthony kennedy. justice kennedy has carved a niche for himself as the swing vote on the supreme court. this is a -- there is a great debate as to whether judge gorsuch will be more of a kennedy or a scalia. i suspect he will be a gorsuch, and that's just fine by me. what really matters is that judge gorsuch will come to the supreme court with a strong understanding of its dynamics, and there is no question that he will be effective from day one. no question but that he will be his own man. i want to emphasize that point. judge gorsuch made it very clear to me when we met that he has made no commitments to the president or his team and he made it clear at the hearings that if any commitment were sought, he would have gotten up and walked out. after spending time with judge gorsuch, i believe him. i believe him on that. his commitment to an independent judiciary is resolute, and i think on this issue he will not bend to political expedience, as he should not. he is not the president's man, not the par
