I am afraid our system will only be further corrupted, I have to say, as a result of President Obama's views that, in tough cases, the critical ingredient for a judge is the 'depth and breadth of one's empathy,' as well as, his word, 'their broader vision of what America should be.'
Feingold expresses concern over Obama's judicial philosophy emphasizing empathy.

Democracy and human rights go hand in hand, and DRL is at the forefront of implementing President Biden's commitment to human rights.
The hypocrisy here is important. The fact that a state like Texas is invading the privacy of women on abortion... but they're saying that somehow, it's wrong to make sure that we all get a vaccine to protect each other.
President Biden has stressed repeatedly that human rights must be at the center of our foreign policy, and I could not agree more.
I would argue the DRL's work has never been more important than it is right now, with democracy going head to head with the growing threats of kleptocracy and authoritarianism around the globe.
