Amy Comey Barrett formally sworn in by Chief Justice John Roberts
KTLA ^

Posted on 10/27/2020 8:55:14 AM PDT by FR33DOM4ME

Amy Coney Barrett was formally sworn in Tuesday as the Supreme Court’s ninth justice, her oath administered by Chief Justice John Roberts. Her first votes on the court could include two big topics affecting the man who appointed her.

The court is weighing a plea from President Donald Trump to prevent the Manhattan district attorney from acquiring his tax returns. It is also considering appeals from the Trump campaign and Republicans to shorten the deadline for receiving and counting absentee ballots in the battleground states of North Carolina and Pennsylvania.

It’s not certain Barrett will take part in any of these issues, but she will make that call.

I can’t believe anyone will confirm the spirit of antichrist and vote Democrat.

But some obviously will. Like that beast that’s going door-to-door in her yoga pants preaching the Satanic gospel of RBG. Incredible.

"On Friday, Barrett, the most open opponent of abortion rights to join the court in decades, also could be called upon to weigh in on Mississippi’s 15-week abortion ban."

More scare tactics. How has she been "the most open opponent of [sic] abortion rights to join the court"? Her constant refrain has been than laws be judged on their Constitutionality. Period.

An unfettered "right" to abortion, of course, is unquestionably un-Constitutional. Maybe that's what they mean.

If we with Trump’s help actually dismantled the 80%+ unconstitutional portion of the federal government, it would be every much of a miracle as the rag-tag colonists beating the greatest military power in the world in 1776.

The America people would have almost instant prosperity, the relentless hidden tax of inflation would be wiped out, and the IRS would be a storefront. The government would once again fear the people (= freedom) instead of what we have now, the people fearing the government (= tyranny).

The land would once again abound with opportunities and we would once again be a Free Constitutional Republic, full of faith in God, strong, and the envy of the world.

It is also considering appeals from the Trump campaign and Republicans to shorten the deadline for receiving and counting absentee ballots in the battleground states of North Carolina and Pennsylvania.

Pretty sure an honest description would be that the the plaintiffs are trying to beat back efforts to EXTEND the vote manufacturing counting deadline beyond precedent and election law.

Notice how, as soon as liberals get something they want, it INSTANTLY becomes SQA, even if it's the polar opposite of what held for decades or centuries, and 'conservatives' are described as activist??

>>Democrats Hillary, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer have done nothing but complain about this woman.

That should show us it is not about gender. They simply want to be able to murder and enrich themselves with the profits of the whole abortion process without obstruction.

Relax, murderers. Even if the SC declares abortion a “states rights” issue, you will still have a significant number of commie-controlled states willingly complicit in accommodating your evil deeds. Disgusting but true.

In reality, Clinton deliberately chose RBG as known ACLU leftist, to replace Byron White —

“A social conservative appointed by President John F. Kennedy, White was one of only two Justices to dissent from Roe v. Wade in 1973. He also opposed inventing a constitutional right for homosexuality, and wrote the decision for the Court in Bowers v. Hardwick (1986), which he stated that:

*It is obvious to us that neither of these [precedents] would extend a fundamental right to homosexuals to engage in acts of consensual sodomy. Proscriptions against that conduct have ancient roots. See generally Survey on the Constitutional Right to Privacy in the Context of Homosexual Activity, 40 U. Miami L. Rev. 521, 525 (1986). Sodomy was a criminal offense at common law and was forbidden by the laws of the original 13 States when they ratified the Bill of Rights. In 1868, when the Fourteenth Amendment was ratified, all but 5 of the 37 States in the Union had criminal sodomy laws. In fact, until 1961, all 50 States outlawed sodomy, and today, 24 States and the District of Columbia continue to provide criminal penalties for sodomy performed in private and between consenting adults. See Survey, U. Miami L. Rev., supra, at 524, n. 9. Against this background, to claim that a right to engage in such conduct is “deeply rooted in this Nation’s history and tradition” or “implicit in the concept of ordered liberty” is, at best, facetious. “

(Conservopedia | https://www.conservapedia.com/Byron_White )

This just makes up (mops up) for Clinton choosing an ACLU Marxist.

ASA is a bad idea for Hillary, especially if washed down with Chardonnay.

>They should all be impeached.

You can't "impeach" a Senator. The Senate so ruled over 200 years ago. "Expel" them all instead.

All Trump appointees should be disbarred from any work for Trump because of the conflict of interest working for the man who appointed him/her.

Oh wait. That doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

Absolutely. This is their sacrifice to the god of this world, Satan. Like Moloch.

The Lord rebuke them; the whole lot.

Didn't know that (combination). Have never used that acronym (ASA) for it. A-ha. I suppose that's a lot easier to say than "acetylsalicylic acid". That's how I always say it, LOL. Thanks.
