Can the editor of Above the Law (left wing blog) name just one female candidate to Kavanaugh's clerkship who is more qualified than Sophia? He can't.


that's absurd. there are likely hundreds if not thousands of young female law grads just as qualified as she is. This is payola, clear as day. Sophia will be ostracized by elite legal institutions and will have to scrape the bottom of the barrel after she peters out at her post-clerkship firm job.


No she won't. That's not how this works. Those who benefit from the swamp don't end up getting taken down by it - they stay on top. They marry each other. They consolidate power. She'll do great in life. And someone else, who didn't have Amy Chua as her mom, will do worse.


Oh, I have no doubt she'll make oodles of money and have a big office. She just won't get the cultural and intellectual standing that people like her crave. No top law school will come close to touching her if she goes on the law prof market, for example. Mommy and daddy's influence does not extend that far.


I appreciate your mild vengeance fantasy but I just don't think you're right. I think she'll be humiliated in the media for letting her mommy buy her a clerkship and then will thrive for the rest of her life with the benefits of her connections.

Fortunately she will have at least a $250,000 signing bonus from a firm that hires her post-clerkship.


Actually, she'll be going into the Army when she's done, to pay back for her education. Apparently her well-to-do parents were too cheap to pay for her college so Sophia was Army ROTC. I wonder if a JAG has ever been a SC clerk?

Sophia responded to the ATL editor on twitter last July.

Hi! The daughter here. Just to clarify one thing: I was college ROTC, went to law school on Army Ed Delay, and am joining the Active Duty JAG Corps right after my circuit clerkship (wherever that will be!). So I won't be applying for SCOTUS anytime soon bc I will be in the Army.


I guess she didn't have to apply at all since mommy got her the job

Surprised no one has brought this up. She said she wouldn’t be applying to SCOTUS because she has an ROTC obligation to pay back. So why isn’t she headed to the Army? Like she publicly said she was? Another deferral? Is it standard to defer multiple years after grad school? And if it is, why did she lie? Or did she get another “special” favor? Or did she manage to bone spur her way out?

People here are talking about her next job being in Big Law with huge bonuses? Doesn’t she owe the Army time first?

I agree it’s weird she was ROTC at all. If she was really serious about the military, why would she not go military academy? Her parents could pull the strings to get her in. Otherwise, she could still be Commissioned out of law school without ROTC. It’s not like her parents (mom a best selling author) couldn’t afford her education.

So strange.

FAKE NEWS ALERT!!
The real story is that Brett kavanaugh actually helps and supports the legal careers of female attorneys.
The Brett kavanaugh who had every liberal inside the beltway lying about him and smearing him and threatening legislators. The Brett kavanaugh who fought back against the ignoramuses that make up the leftist multi-media lynch mob.
THAT Brett kavanaugh is actually a champion of and for female attorneys.

Nice try with your fake news thread but it just isn’t so.

Even RBG has commended him on supporting female attorneys.

Nothing fake about these posts. Kavanaugh helps female attorneys by hiring the kids of female attorneys who defend him against rape charges. Sometimes lawyers refer to that as quid pro quo. Amy Chua also told Yale law students to make sure to wear makeup, have long hair and a dress rather than a pantsuit if they wanted to work for him. Sounds like a real friend to women.

Plenty of JAGs have been Supreme Court clerks. There was a time when the military was highly regarded and men served in both capacities. Your comment was quite odd.


Recently? My comment isn't "odd," I know what I'm talking about, thank you. DH was an ROTC JAG and he was told he couldn't to take a clerkship because he needed to fulfill his commitment to the Army.

Putting this aside, tiger daughter is getting special treatment. I kind of feel sorry for her, because she's never had any free choice in her life and she doesn't even know it.

Sorry you don’t like dresses. You be you. The supreme kavanaugh clearly helps women and has for a long time.
Got any more fake rape accusations you can throw at him? He appears to have kicked them ALL straight back into your teeth.

If that’s true and the tiger cub is getting special treatment and backing out of her obligations that is not correct. I had a college friend who did ROTC and remember he said there were no deferrals but that was quite some time ago.

Please just name one who applied and didn’t get it.

Why should we? Just because you won’t acknowledge that Kavanaugh is a bought and paid for swamp beast supported by swamp beasts doesn’t mean the rest of us can’t see favoritism.


You are imagining favoritism. The bar for a Supreme Court clerkship is very high. Only a small number qualifies. If you don't have evidence of who was bumped by the Tiger club, you are just making stuff up.

On the other hand, any high school kid is qualified to intern for Harvey Weinstein. To get that job, you do need some favoritism.


Look, as an Ivy law school grad with plenty of friends with top appellate and a few Supreme Court clerkships, I can tell you with 100000%%% certainty that there are MANY extremely qualified grads who could have taken her place, in an instant. She got it due to connections.


Your credential doesn't give you authority on how many qualified female grads were applying for the Fall term of 2019 and also interested in working for Kavanaugh. You don't know and are imagining things.


lol well, you actually convinced me. there are likely VERY FEW qualified female grads who were willing to clerk for Kav.

Huh. I just googled it and it seems like active duty and reserves are the two options. Perhaps Kavanaugh is giving her special time off so she can fulfill her requirements. But that sucks if that same special treatment isn’t applied to all people finishing ROTC.

I agree.

I distrust this particular Justice, I don't approve of Tiger Mother's use of influence, but the level of anti-Brett, anti-Amy hysterics on this thread is not justified.

Move on.

Move on from the announcement that was made yesterday? Yeah probably time for another Benghazi hearing or something. Hey tell me again about the electoral college victory.

No I think this is the perfect moment to talk about how the swamp works and how it continually advantages those who swim in it and disadvantages those who don't.

That's your opinion, and an inaccurate one at that. Few people are dying to work for Kavanaugh, I for one, would worry about having my young daughter work for him. If the tiger girl got her position through her mother's defense of Kavanaugh against rape charges, that's a relevant story, and particularly if she received special permission not to do her ROTC obligation right away.
