Neil Gorsuch will take the stand again today before the Senate Judiciary Committee to once again school Senate politicians on the value of “seperations of power” despite their endless attempts to make him offer up his personal opinions on controversial legislation.

Per Politico, here are some of the key takeaways from yesterday’s testimony.
On being Trump’s puppet:
Several Democrats noted that Trump publicly and repeatedly vowed that the judges he’d put on the bench would overturn the Supreme Court precedent finding a constitutional right to abortion, Roe v. Wade.
However, Gorsuch insisted he’d made no promises on that issue. In fact, he suggested he’d have stormed out in a huff if asked to do so.
“Senator, I would have walked out the door,” Gorsuch said to Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.). “It’s not what judges do. They don’t do it at the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue, and they shouldn’t do it here.”
