BREAKING: Judge Liles Burke gives four lawyers in the Alabama judge-shopping inquiry until 5p Tuesday to turn over a Q&A document that they say is privileged. I expect a filing at the Eleventh Circuit well before then.

I fear we are seeing early examples of what will soon be a deluge of unbridled right-wing activism at every level of the judiciary.

I really hope the 11th Circuit will do the right thing, but this is very bad.
