Hinderaker Cannot Understand That Pushing A “Wrong On The Law” (Likely Cop-Killing!) Result Might Have Consequences…

So… tonight we read Hinderaker’s silly bleatings, about Paul Clement leaving Kirkland & Ellis.

Clement “won” for the NRA-aligned entities — against NYC last week, at the Supremes (but that’s been eclipsed by Dobbs). It is clear that Scalia simply “made up” what became the law, in Heller. That ill-framed decision directly allowed Clement to “win” — making it easier to concealed carry in NYC.

Hinderaker is mum about the fact that the police union in NYC is hopping mad about Clement’s advocacy, and the Thomas decision.

It WILL get more cops killed in shoot-outs, in NYC. That’s a fact.

But John says it is all pernicious discrimination — by those mean lefties:

…[T]his isn’t the first time that Clement had to leave a major law firm because his practice didn’t align with leftist pieties:

Contemplate that for a moment: the United States House of Representatives was too hot a client for King & Spalding to represent, because a statute that passed and was signed into law was unpopular on the Left….

I want to highlight Hinderaker’s dishonesty, again for the record: his client in the DOMA case was the Tea Party wing of the GOP. NOT the whole US House. And that law? Was invalidated by the Supremes, in an opinion written by Trump appointed Justice Gorsuch, two summers ago — declaring a law preventing women from marrying women, or men marrying men… as an unconstitutional denial of equal protection of the law.

Damn, son. Stop the lying.

And yes, picking a cop-killer kinda’ client company… can cost one a $3 million a year partner’s draw.

Let me break out a tiny violin for Clement. His net worth is likely over $20 million.

Y A W N.

But John sees him as a defenseless… victim.

Poppy-cock.
