The response from the White House was both swift and characteristically sharp. Deputy Press Secretary Abigail Jackson issued a scathing rebuttal, effectively accusing Judge Wolf of hypocrisy and political motivation. The administration’s stance is clear: they reject his claims of nonpartisanship, arguing instead that Wolf’s public exit is the ultimate confirmation of his own deeply entrenched political bias. The White House pointedly defended the administration’s legal record, highlighting a string of significant victories before the Supreme Court as evidence that their actions are grounded in solid constitutional interpretations rather than political malice. The administration’s retort also contained a pointed barb, suggesting that any judge who feels the urge to engage in the “political gutter” is doing the right thing by resigning, implying that Wolf was already unfit for the bench long before he decided to walk away.
