Neal Katyal Lawyer
Katyal appeared on The Colbert Report on July 26, 2006; June 17, 2008; and February 27, 2013. He then appeared on a 2015 episode of the US television drama House of Cards, portraying himself, and arguing before the Supreme Court on behalf of a US citizen maimed by a drone strike.
He endorsed President Trump’s nomination of Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court in an op-ed to The New York Times. When that newspaper’s public editor criticized the op-ed for failing to disclose Neal Katyal had active cases being considered by the Court. He responded that it would have been obvious he always has cases being heard by the Supreme Court. Katyal formally introduced Judge Gorsuch at the Senate Judiciary Committee confirmation hearings.
In addition to Gorsuch, Katyal also spoke highly of President Trump’s nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. In multiple tweets that were cited by Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell in favor of Kavanaugh’s confirmation, Katyal praised Kavanaugh’s “credentials [and] hardworking nature,” and described his “mentoring and guidance” of female law clerks as “a model for all of us in the legal profession.”
Neal has also described Kavanaugh as “very gracious” and “incredibly likable.” “It’s very hard for anyone who has worked with him, appeared before him, to frankly say a bad word about him,” Katyal observed during a July 2018 panel on Kavanaugh’s nomination sponsored by The Heritage Foundation, a conservative think-tank.
