As was widely-reported, on May 18 Donald Trump released a list of eleven judges who he would consider for the U.S. Supreme Court -- if presented with such task. The list included Justice Don Willett of the Supreme Court of Texas.
Justice Willett is well-known nationally as a grand master on Twitter. With over 49,000 followers he is easily the number one most popular tweeting judge. That’s a staggering number of followers for anyone, let alone a judge. Willett’s Twitter accomplishments include a formal recognition, by the Texas House of Representatives, as a “Tweeter Laureate,” for his “lively and engaging presence on Twitter.” [Willett is also a tremendously talented writer. I read his opinions even if they have nothing to do with insurance. And I usually read nothing that has nothing to do with insurance.]
Willett’s Twitter feed is one of only a handful that I never fail to read. There’s a reason why he has so many followers. His tweets are, well, just that good. I could try to explain why, but I’d do a bad job of it. To really appreciate Willett’s gift for this social media platform you need to go to @JusticeWillett and see for yourself. My personal favorites are the ones related to his enormous-Texas pride. Justice Willett has even tweeted a few things from Coverage Opinions, which is always very flattering. |
