Final Jeopardy! category: THE SUPREME COURT
Final Jeopardy! clue: With the passing of Antonin Scalia, this Reagan appointee became the longest-tenured justice on the Court
Who is Anthony Kennedy? (Kate answered Souter)
Kate 5200 – 5000 = 200 ($10,000)
Jonathan 8800 + 6000 = 14800 ($14,800)
Louie 18000 + 399 = 18399 ($50,000)
To be honest, if I were told that two of the three people here got this clue, I would have predicted Kate and Jonathan, not Jonathan and Louie!
Some more fun facts about the Supreme Court:
- Anthony Kennedy is the only current Supreme Court Justice whose confirmation vote did not have a dissenting vote (it was 97-0). Clarence Thomas was confirmed by the very slim margin of 52-48. Every justice from David Souter forward has had at least one dissenting vote when being confirmed to the Court.
- The 8 current justices, in order of tenure (first date on the Court in parentheses):
- Anthony Kennedy (February 18, 1988)
- Clarence Thomas (October 23, 1991)
- Ruth Bader Ginsburg (August 10, 1993)
- Stephen Breyer (August 3, 1994)
- John Roberts (September 29, 2005)
- Samuel Alito (January 31, 2006)
- Sonia Sotomayor (August 8, 2009)
- Elena Kagan (August 7, 2010)
- Interestingly, in spite of the fact that the majority of historical judges have been Protestant, the Supreme Court currently is comprised of 5 Catholic judges and 3 Jewish ones. (If Merrick Garland gets confirmed, he would be a fourth Jewish judge on the Court.)
