what would justice souter say? yeah. so, i mean, i'll take that. i mean, the answer is no. i mean, they won't. and the reason won't is because i think it's their decision to make now, when congress if congress ever passes statute that purports to mandate it there will be an interesting constitutional question seriously about whether that statute is, constitutional. for what it's worth, i'd be happy to argue that statute would not be constituted, know that that gets too much into the way that the judiciary operates its own procedures to be consist with the separation of powers. but i'm sure you know, a beautiful segue would defend the constitutionality that statute and it could go the way up to the court and i think there's a rule of necessity would say they would not recuse themselves and guess if i were the lawyer challenging, the constitutionality of the statute, i'd like my chances. but but but even apart from the hypothetical statute, at least until the hypothetical statute, it's the justices to make it's it's hard to see from the justice perspective. what's the upside

president who appointed them and all of that and in an era when, you know a john paul stevens, a justice souter, for whom you clerked, were republican appointees, it was a lot easier to try a lawyer who believes, you know, everything don said. but to me, you know, it's a lot easier. explain that. there's not a 1 to 1 correspondence here. when you had sort of justices like that. and if i do sort of have a concern, it's, you know, and i'm in richmond, so i'll play to the home crowd a little bit. but like, you know, i mean, lewis, you know, was a justice who had a perspective that was different from some of the other justices at that time and i think different almost any justice on the court right now. and that was borne out of the fact that he had been in practice almost his whole career and pretty hard to imagine a president of either party appointing a lewis at this day and age for no other reason than i don't know his exact age. but lewis powell is on the older side. when he was appointed. and, you know, that used to be a good thing in a or a justice. and now i think it's all but disqualifying
