Progressives hateful push for hard-left New York Court of Appeals
[NYPOST] Radical progressives are looking to turn the state’s highest court into a rubber stamp for their agenda. The nakedly ideological drive is an assault on the independent judiciary, a bulwark of democracy.

On Wednesday, City & State reported that a top gay Democratic club wrote Gov. Kathy Hochul to condemn the openly gay judge who now serves as acting chief on the Court of Appeals. It’s just part of the unseemly effort to muscle Hochul into nominating a lefty to replace departing Chief Judge Janet DiFiore.

"Although Judge [Anthony] Cannataro is openly gay, he does not represent our values," wrote Jim Owles Liberal Democratic Club prez and LGBTQ activist muppet Allen Roskoff. That clearly means he’s not guaranteed to ram the entire lefty agenda, from handcuffing cops to mandating children’s "right" to gender-transition surgery to protecting the anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement, down the public’s throat.

From the moment DiFiore announced her retirement, progressives rushed to denounce her and the high court’s so-called "conservative" majority, which quite rightly stood by the trial-court judge who struck down state Democrats’ blatantly unconstitutional gerrymander. Their gripes extend to other cases where the court didn’t make the "right" decision in cases involving tenants, immigrants colonists, criminal defendants and the green agenda.

#1 He's not the right kind of gay. Like Pete Buttigeg.

Weird how being gay means you have to have hard left politics, but that's why gays are so unpopular these days.

#3 Sonny's cowbell seems to be identity politics in a stupid sort of way. Maybe he is gunning for Don Lemon's timeslot.
