Supreme Court Nominee Amy Coney Barrett Confirmation Hearing - Day 1 Day one of confirmation hearings for Supreme Court Nominee Amy Coney Barrett gets underway before the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Yep, a potential land mine. She is running circles around turbin.
My first disappointment with her.....so sick of George Floyd....and her total acceptance of the media narrative.

Not to mention those policemen still haven’t been brought to trial and it’s completely unacceptable to attribute their actions to racism.
And, by the way, I don’t buy this “we need to put a woman in RBG’s seat!” bullshit that Trump obviously bought into. WHY? If Clarence Thomas retires, do we need to put another black in there? If the “wise Latina” leaves, do we need to find another “wise Latina?” This is COMPLETELY playing into the left’s identity politics playbook, and I find it offensive.
There will never be a solution to race issues because in many cases it is far more a culture difference and culture lifestyles which differ. Even today blacks separate themselves because it's quite natural for cultures to do so. We see this throughout the world.
No telling what kind of treatment she's gotten for adopting the kids. And don't think it comes from conservatives. Some on the left have already accused her of adopting them as props.
You forget we're dealing with Democrats here. They don't have to find anything. They have no qualms about making things up.
Durbin is a sleez and is grabbing at insignificant statements and twisting them trying to hang her up. Durbin is a Dick.... felony not a felony vote or not vote.. He gives his opinion and tries to get her to agree with his twisted statement. AZZhole
She said he was taking her comment out of context and he is too ignorant to understand the descriptive nature of her writing.
I can’t recall where I first heard this, but is Schumer planning some dirty trick to get the Democrats on the committee to walk out when it comes time to vote, thus preventing a quorum?
Quite possibly correct.
Durben ‘sounds’ like the Hillary folks were looking when Hillary lost.....have expected him to break out into tears.
Durbin is a great idiot
I took it as she saw the death of Floyd as due to a racist cop.
If the democrats walk out... screw em... there does not have to be committee recommendation for the senate to vote on the appointment of a supreme court justice.
She answered that set up question about Floyd very well, IMO. I think she’s been quite amazing, no notes, citing case law, court determinations from memory.
Arguing points of law with ACB is a losing proposition for these low life Dems.
Her writings are complex, Durbin doesn't understand the intricacies of language. Lee is about to allow her to elaborate. I agree that she doesn't believe we should suspend gun rights for all felonies as some are now ridiculous (bottle caps) and written by liberals to take away gun rights.
She’s undeniably a brilliant legal mind. First in her class in law school, a federal appellate court judge, renowned professor, etc. but she is also a happy wife and mother and may I add, very attractive.
Everything the unhappy and angry feminists are missing.
I heard that also. But if he wishes McConnell can have the Sergeant At Arms bring them back. He should not need too many for a quorum. They are not required to vote, just be present. Satan is going to have his disciples go full bore. You can count on that. This is going to get much worse as time goes on. The Left has already murdered one person. Remain alert and careful. Don’t give them an opportunity to make it two.
