Prior to joining the Trump administration, she worked as a professor at George Mason University’s Antonin Scalia Law School and clerked for Justice Clarence Thomas on the Supreme Court.

Don’t tell me. Mad Maxine Waters already wants to “impeach” her because she makes Mad Maxine sad.

Can we quit pretending that the Democrats care about women and minorities now?

In the contemporary Leftist playbook, women & minorities are seen as potential pawns to be exploited by narratives of faux grievances. No, the puppet masters do not care about them; only using the media & academia to monger self destructive grievances, which work like self-fufiling prophesies to actually sabotage those whom they thus patronize. It is ugly & vicious and indefensible in logic.

Grievances & Grievance Mongers

So 100% of the Democrats voted against a female minority, making them all racists and sexists.

Please note that ALL RINOS VOTED FOR HER, including Romney, Murkowski, and Collins...and not a single single Democrat, including Manchin.

One again proving that RINOS are VERY DIFFERENT from Democrats, at least on judges.

One intersting tidbit from the article:

“She also came under fire for arguing against a ban on dwarf-tossing.”

Hopefully it will become a summer Olympics event. :)

RE: Another hyphenated American.

The hyphenating is being done by the press. The issue is DOES SHE HYPHENATE HERSELF?

Excellent intern experience... Much better than the background for some prior GOP SCOTUS appointments...

But not “different enough” to warrant their retention as Senators.

There were only 2 major promises that PDJT made and must keep: the wall and to stack the justices in our RIGHT favor. He’s doing at least the 2nd promise.

The wall may or may not appear BUT for generations to come (especially when a Dummycrat president comes in) the judiciary LANDMINES will be in place for the Dem clown...the same way Obamatard did to Trump with the fed judges.
