Retired Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy expressed deep concern over increasing partisanship and vulgarity in political discourse, stating it's 'creeping its way into the court.'

Kennedy worries about the nation's future, especially as its 250th anniversary approaches, and urges public officials to elevate discourse. His upcoming memoir details his judicial career and reflections.
