A retired conservative federal judge slammed what he called "nonsense" and "utter madness" pervading the Republican Party in the wake of the Republican National Committee's censure of two of its own members of Congress, calling it "the definition of failed leadership" to the Los Angeles Times.

Judge J. Michael Luttig, a widely-respected conservative legal figure, clerked for former Supreme Court Justices Warren Burger and Antonin Scalia, served for over a decade on the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals, and was twice considered for the Supreme Court during the George W. Bush administration.

Luttig retired from the federal judiciary in 2006, but continues to be highly influential in the conservative legal world — and made a significant splash with a January 5, 2021 Twitter thread of legal analysis laying out why former Vice President Mike Pence couldn't overturn the 2020 election on January 6.

Now, Luttig is deeply troubled by the RNC's vote to censure GOP Reps. Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger for their work on the House committee investigating the insurrection, Trump attacking Pence for arguing that he couldn't have overturned the 2020 election, and Trump continuing to whack Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.

1. Today's Republicans are not even Conservative.

While this retired Judge makes a lot of sense, Congressional Republicans will refuse to listen.

Exceptions are Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger.
