Scalia Death Shapes Debate on Constitution and Justice
The piece reflects on Antonin Scalia’s legacy and constitutional jurist tradition from Texas' Big Bend. It contrasts Scalia’s defense of criminal defendants and Second Amendment rights with calls in Congress for timely confirmation, citing Reagan's 1988 nominee and Sri Srinivasan as examples, amid partisan tension in a polarized era.

Win one for Nino
Krauthammer argues during the Obama era battle over a Supreme Court vacancy that Senate Republicans must block an outgoing president’s nominee, urging supporters to “win one for Nino” as the 2016 election decides Scalia’s seat and the court’s balance. He contrasts Democratic and Republican moves, cites Reid’s nuclear option, and emphasizes the president proposing and Senate disposing as a two step process shaping a conservative majority.
