The left is demon possessed.

Why?

Simple. Since they know that the adoption records can never be made public, it gives them a club to beat up Barrett/Trump with that can never be debunked. They are free to speculate and insinuate something sinister all they want, trying to keep a cloud of suspicion over the nominee in order to sway public opinion against her.

And Democrat-Obama A$$-kissing Sycophants (DOAKS) in the media will do their best to make it all sound reasonable.

“I guess they believe everybody thinks like they do. . . .”

your guess is the correct answer

“The National Council for Adoption quickly issued a press release in defense of the Roberts children’s privacy, denouncing the Times’ “shameful disregard for the integrity of the family in general and the adoptive family in particular.” In the ensuing backlash, the Times dropped the story.”

perhaps if they trash ACB’s family/adopted children and really get filthy ugly (which they are capable of), then just perhaps Roberts might have a moment of self-reflection and swing back to the right.

Nor will they question the movie stars who adopt children of color

Madonna
Angelina Jolie
Brad Pitt
Oprah
Mitt Romney

They’ve all adopted children from Haiti. All are regarded as compassionate heroes.
But let a white Catholic conservative pro life adopt...

That is all the democrats have got to attack her with. That’s the reason they are picking at that. THAT’S ALL THEY CAN COME UP WITH!

You’re thinking of Charlize Theron, who adopted a baby boy and then, when he was around 7, “identified as a girl.” So now Theron pretends that her son is her daughter.

Friends told me they couldn’t adopt, because they were over 40. I had a hard time believing it.

That was back when Haiti had the earthquake and a lot of people wanted to help in a big way.
I am now 55 and would still take in a child if really needed.
Children are great. Our 11yo daughter is totally amazing.
I told my wife D is the best person I have ever known.

It could be they attack Judge Amy Coney Barrett on how she adopted those kids.
That happened in the past but I can’t recall with who.

I think you’re thinking of John Roberts. When he was nominated several newspapers including New York times went after his adoption.

You’re welcome. I searched for that one woman and found a treasure trove!
That’s just celebs. I have a feeling they do it for ‘face-time’.
Wonder how many regular people have done the same and get no recognition.

Millions have adopted kids from Haiti, China, Russia, with no recognition.
But God knows & knows the motives.
