A fascinating legal thread...
 

I don't know if anyone reads Scotusblog on here, but they frequently have sensational insights into the judiciary (primarily on the Supreme Court).

They have a question and answer with Jan Greenburg (who just wrote a book on the Supreme Court and has been given unprecedented access to the justices, their clerks, and White House insiders from the Supreme Court nomination processes).

It is a great read. I intend to buy her book as soon as I have some time.
