she continues with a line of thinking that Scalia would not have endorsed on some of the cases that look like things might break down along 5-4 lines --they try to find some common ground..."sometimes we can break off a piece" of the case... the Chief has made a similar point...
Kagan on the court's talking points of late...we decide about "half the cases unanimously. " rbg, gorsuch, the chief and others have made the same point in recent talks. They don't want the public to think the court is political

Justice Kagan in the house @universityofminnesota asked what she likes most about her job : “the whole thing is a pretty good gig” – at Washington, DC
At forum on Sandra Day O'Connor, Ted Olson asks about tense episodes at court. RBG says he played a role in the most tense in her 26 years: Bush v. Gore (Olson argued for Bush)

Sotomayor says it's tough for a former district judge, who gets to run the show, to share questioning with her colleagues. "I'm still trying to bring it under control."

Sotomayor said the nomination gave her hope. It “opened a door to make me think that the progress would be faster than I had imagined” – at Washington, DC
RBG says when she heard of OConnor’s nomination. She was driving. Hallelujah she said.

People often ask if Ginsburg always wanted to be a Supreme Court Justice. She says when she got out of law school she just wanted a job as a woman.

Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. forcefully rejected criticism that the Supreme Court’s work had been warped by partisanship. "We don’t go about our work in a political manner,” he said. nyti.ms/2mXi2YP

Sheer coincidence that Chief Justice Roberts, who would preside at Senate trial following impeachment, is at Temple Emanuel tonight, less than a half mile north of Trump Tower in NYC. #SCOTUS
In addition to already scheduled plans to speak Aug 31 (at the National Book Festival), Sept 3 (at the University of Arkansas), and Sept 23 (at Meredith College) per @SCOTUSMap

RBG's in Sweden today to receive an award. In the 60s, she became fluent in Swedish and wrote a book about civil procedure there. She was deeply influenced by Swedish feminism.

Kennedy and Alito are together @DukeU today where Kennedy will be honored. First, though, the 2 #SCOTUS justices are taking part in a discussion with law students that is unfortunately closed to wider public and press.
