From the piece:
So often, Scalia has chosen to ignore the obligation of a Supreme Court justice to be, and appear to be, impartial. He’s turned “judicial restraint” into an oxymoronic phrase.

He introduces himself as Mr. Scratch and welcomes you to this particular road. He grins and offers you one wish. Anything, anyone in the world can be yours. You ask him if there's a catch.
