"If you were good friends, what were you doing ruling on his case?" said Charles Geyh, an Indiana University law professor and leading expert on recusals, told ProPublica. "And if you weren't good friends, what were you doing accepting this?"

I joined @Twitter 9 years ago because this cute guy I went on a couple dates with was active on the site and I didn’t want to miss out. Now he’s my husband. So nice to connect with so many of you, often IRL, after meeting here. Hope you’ll continue to follow me and my work!
