What I want to read from her are dissents. They are normally much more telling about her judicial philosophy. I read a really good one by Barrett concerning the 2nd Amendment today. Would like to see similar for Lagoa

I don’t necessarily think that’s a bad thing, either. Moderation, combined with her Cuban pedigree, would likely have her fighting both illegal ballots and Trump overreach in trying to throw out perfectly legal, honest ones.*

*By that state’s actual law.

She’s a lightweight.

Especially in comparison to ACB.

I see a lot about her agreeing with colleagues in winning decisions. And far too little about decisions she wrote which won colleagues to her side.

And as far as I can tell, she’s published nothing.

Here’s hoping ACB becomes the nominee to be confirmed.

She’s a lightweight.

Through and through.

She got where she is by Affirmative Action.

The right’s Sotomayor.

Does anybody have any 2nd Amendment information on Judge Lagoa? There are 2 types of “conservative” judges-—the old school Bush types that basically do whatever the Government wants them to do, and the more libertarian, pro-individual rights (like the the 2A) (and they don’t MAKE UP rights like abortion). I can’t find anything.

"Hearing today Lagoa is being pushed hard by Rubio camp, but WH isn’t sold on her yet— Jack Posobiec 🇺🇸 (@JackPosobiec) September 20, 2020" Anyone pushed by Rubio, after being brought up by Jeb Bush is simply not qualified ideologically.

I sensed something was amiss with her. No more ethnic minorities on the Court.

Too many positive mentions from MSM about out of no where Lagoa. Go with ACB Trump! Or Rushing or Gannt. This media push for Lagao is sinister. She might be good, but thats a MIGHT

Get it done with Barrett. The Laguna Hal has only a year in the bench. Enough to vote against her right there, imo

That sounds like good intel. I hope POTUS is looking the choices over very carefully. Barrett doesn’t thrill me, Lagoa has too many democrats in her inner circle. I’m waiting to hear his choice with bated breath.

Only a year? That is Damn scary. Makes me even more concerned with her Aligning with the dumb Latina. I just don’t know if Mitch can get it done with Barrett the rinos are going to be hard to bring on board before the election and Barrett scares them.

I’m totally against her as the choice because of the overwhelming approval she received from the communists at confirmation...
