It would be extremely helpful to know how Barrett and Lagoa would vote on a whole range of immigration issues: travel restrictions, visa overstays, preemptory removals of illegals with minimal delays, DACA, anchor babies, etc., etc.

These are huge issues for our future as a republic.

Trump has already said he will nominate a woman
Put money on Barrett. She’s already been confirmed by the senate. Just vote

“I must have missed their staunch defense of the Second Amendment. Most important issue of this nomination, skipped completely.”

That person on the list would be Britt Grant, but the single issue (abortion) and global religion (Catholic) folks screened her out with noise.

Britt Grant was Solicitor General of Georgia and one of the filers of the brief against an AR-15 ban. She’s also shown herself with her work to be conservative on the other important issues.

What our political opponents (Democrats) think of Britt Grant (see other issues including Homosexual marriage, abortion, etc.):

Oppose the Confirmation of Britt Grant to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit
https://civilrights.org/resource/oppose-confirmation-britt-grant-u-s-court-appeals-eleventh-circuit/

https://www.afj.org/issue/gun-safety/
“Britt Grant (Eleventh Circuit) argued that a city ordinance prohibiting possession of AR-15 style weapons or large-capacity magazines violated the Second Amendment.”

More on that (other issues)...

Britt Grant is also the one who has shown herself to be conservative in regards to immigration issues.

But sponsors of Fox News have apparently chosen the nominee for the President. Out of a barrage of articles over the past couple of days, here’s the latest.

GOP senators share plan to move SCOTUS nominee from committee to floor vote, approve of Amy Barrett’s record

“Here’s what they had to say about the process and the presumptive pick Amy Coney Barrett...Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee that will approve the nominee, spoke with Fox News about Barrett and Barbara Lago’s Catholic faith. She said Democrats are willing to vilify these women based on their spirituality, in an effort to derail Trump’s nominee out of spite.”

If you scroll down to where it says, “Barrett, Circuit Judge, dissenting” and read through it very carefully, you’ll see that it’s not what others claimed it to be.

Demmanazis are waaay too comfortable with this choice (Barbara Lagoa)-

"While Democrats joined with Republicans to support her recent nomination to the federal bench, it is likely Democrats would go after her for lack of experience or qualifications."

She received only token opposition there. There is great opposition from the dims for Britt Grant.

I’m a Lagoa man myself. She’s also been confirmed by the Senate to the Circuit Court

Still unknown quantity. No major decisions. To little time on court

I’m ok with either one

He acts like it sometimes.
Did you see his performance at the GOP convention in 2016?
