Terrific! Terrific! Terrific! Thoughtful. Civil. And fascinating. Margaret Hoover...the best in the business. Thank you to her, the Firing Line team, and PBS for all they do to enlighten and inform. 27 minutes with a Supreme Court Justice...time well-spent.

[@MalikHenry-ip1li]

I totally agree with you. I admire Neil Gorsuch for how civilized and intellectual he is. One that all should aspire towards.

[@WowRixter]

Great interview Margaret. So civil and respectful and enjoyable. Thank goodness we have such a level-headed judge on the Supreme Court

[@ROCKANDROLLALL]

Terrific. A great man

[@gionnic8922]

Excellent on both! Worth a LISTEN

[@brucelockwood4701]

I will be watching this interview several more times in order to fully understand and digest what was said....I don't consider myself a "conservative" but yes, as the Justice says, we must really LISTEN to one another. How else can we begin to heal the divide?

[@psuntlion]

Excellent conversation

[@michaelcicciarelli1742]

Big fan of Margaret. One of the best true journalist/interviewers left nowadays whom I consider fair and profesional

[@popoju9]

and she is good to look at. she seems almost overly excited in this interview.

[@timothykanter4819]

She is really great at what she does and I have a ton of respect for her.

[@brendaamaya7326]

Excellent Interview

[@luckymepyro9802]

I actually feel smarter after that interview .

[@madsumanth]

I didn’t understand all of it, but it was fantastic. I’ll listen to it again some other time!

[@fluthyhehim66]

Why are Margaret Hoover's videos all 27 minutes and 6 seconds?

[@uqbartlon1364]

Maaargarita margariiiiita!

[@LawrenceRhodes]

No matter the dark intent of Donald Trump in his appointing conservative justices the reality is a judge weather conservative or liberal is a judge first and a slave to the law. A judge that breaks that convention does harm to society. The recent behavior of the court is comforting. Future rulings will be scrutinized into perpetuity.

[@WowRixter]

Well said

[@stellavinokur9377]

It's a great program!!! Thank you Margaret. However, and maybe I am just stupid, but I do not understand the entire notion of conservative vs liberal judge. Shouldn't they be objective and fact driven? What the ideology has to do with the judicial practice ? So far nobody could explain it well. Food for thoughts

[@Nauseousjohn85]

Supposed to be…

[@MuppetCore]

The triumphant return...of the leg chair. Not that I noticed.

[@willfrey7589]

Margaret, you can interview me, anytime. :)

[@user-xf4cy4hr8i]

his mother was removed from the EPA under criminal investigation

[@nathanli3024]

After watching hours of judges speak, I think they spoke the same language, liberal or original.

[@coolguypablo6935]

6:06

[@HearTheHeartBeatVid]

Amazingly focused. Hm.

[@neilevan7870]

The interviewer has no interest in this topic. She epitomizes corporate America. A female interviewing an obviously bright person, but because he comes off as "boring" she deems him as uninteresting. If this were a basic job interview, I bet she'd pass on him.

[@user-xf4cy4hr8i]

this man is a lyer

[@mariocastro7379]

6,000 years to come to that conclusion! Creation museum believes earth is 6,000 years old! That's were I lost him!

[@rileybrewer]

That's roughly the age of human government. It's pretty clear that's what he means.

[@presidentchambers8396]

It is True: That this is why Moses appeared on The Mount of transfiguration... with Elijah and the Savior, Jesus Christ, The Word of God. That is why He took their place, and our place... as the voice spoke from heaven... "This is my beloved Son, hear ye Him... He is the one who took their place, and our place . He is the one who was crucified; and put to death in our place. The Lamb of God slain 'afore' the foundation of the world. God, The Living God... had in His mind, His person, His being ...enveloped the plan of Salvation, for our Redemptiom. This that was declared for the fulfilment of The Law of Moses,, spoken of by the Prophets: not bupassing the Law... But fulfilling the Law by bringing Grace to the void, (the world) our rebellion: That through His death and Resurection, He poured out... That is, He laid down His Life; which He took up again on the third day... Expressing the abundance of His Testimony, of His own will, He "imputed" His righteousness to all who believe this, that God has fulfilled His promise to the first Adam (all mankind) of which we are all, Adams descendants... That, that former nature, born of the flesh, govern by The Law and it's commandments, must be done away with; (please read the book of Hebrews) disallowed for the coming of the Last Adam: One drawn out of the water... "By the water of the washing of The Word"... Where by God received The Risen Savior into His Glory, confirmed by the coming of The Holy Spirit, there by sealing and imputed His righteousness to all who believe and receive The Promise... For those who believe and receive The Promise, we now live in Him and He in us, we are the called out one, the Church, The Body of Christ. Not a Temple made with hands. Yet, He is still bringing His sons unto glory; not by Moses or the law of men, but by His His Grace. No Government in the earth can emulate His Perfect Kingdom... From Egypt, to Babylon, to Rome... Only God Himself will Reign in Righteousness in His season. It will do us well to Hear this message. His Friend, ABCh.

Justice Gorsuch’s incorrect assertion that the earth spins around the sun at millions miles per hour diminishes his intellectual and statistical integrity and credibility!
