That is the pattern of behavior almost every federal judge has followed especially the ones in DC. Their rulings follow a strict window of acceptable thought for current_year that will keep them on good terms with the elite class, and they overcompensate for any perceived biases. These people are weak normies and positive or negative attention greatly influences them.
It is why some people argue we should start putting partisan politicians in as judges, like Ted Cruz. Politicians have already lived in DC and played the game. They know how influence is peddled, who their friends and enemies are, and won't be dazzled by new media praise or scorn. They had a constituency and specific ideological voting record so you can guess where they will lean. Obvious downside is you're guaranteed they are biased in certain ways.
