Conservative US supreme court justice’s memoir affirms that she is first and foremost a Trump appointee
In June 2024, a divided US supreme court handed Donald Trump a get-out-of-jail-free card.

For Trump, who once bragged that he could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and get away with it, Christmas had come early.
Justice Amy Coney Barrett, a Trump appointee, joined the majority but voiced doubt all the same.
