As I oft say,,,,of every 3 picks for the USSC for each party,

the democratic party 3 picks will remain hard left, and even more so as time goes on,

of the Republicans Party 3 picks, one will remain conservative, one will move to the middle (but slightly left of center) and one will move far left.

That just the way it is..

She got there on one issue. Abortion. On everything else, she sucks.

One issue anything is always a mistake.

That oozed from her the very first time I saw her when her name was first mentioned for SCOTUS. She was getting out of her car, unloading (Whole Foods) shopping bags, when the pressed converged on her.

I got bad vibes immediately. Then when I saw the designer family she put together for virtue signaling I was sure she’d be a problem. Then other things along the way were other red flags.

Don’t hire chicks to do a man’s job. Ever!

Female justices and judges have problems with the idea of rule of law in cases rather than deciding the case on how they feel. When every case gets decided on emotional nonsense on a case-by-case basis, there is no law. Everything becomes about how the judge feels about a person or the result of following the law.

Some of it might be the result of the left’s intimidation. When the Dems in DC push to have conservative justices killed and one of the their stooges shows up at Kavanaugh’s house to assassinate him, this is the secondary desired result.

There's some truth to that. What can Trump and the GOP do to beef up security for them?

Better yet, what can WE do? Who are we funding with our consumer dollars that is funding the media and its provocations, that we can weaken with boycotts?

Stop appointing women to positions of authority. This is coming from a woman. Look at what happens with judges, university professors, news agencies. The total lack of judgement and the destructive nature of the outcomes has been devastating for this country.

Yes, I know there are good women out there, but look at recent results.

Why is she on the scotus?

Because everybody fell for the "empty notepad" gimmick?

I knew she was a bad choice from the way Republicans were touting her adoption of black kids. See, she’s not a racist!

She’s a virtue signaler. Absolutely doesn’t belong there.

That. Recent lesbo district judge screeching was 100% personal opinion. Wasn’t it

No law expounding

Judge cannon in Miami has been sound to her credit

Articles like this convey little useful information. They serve only to ignite an angry dispute between her and conservatives, and thereby to push her to the left.

which hasn’t been applied since the 1930s and could significantly reduce the authority of government agencies.

That's kind of the point, ain't it?

The signs were there but we had to have a woman. We are stuck with this leftist hack for decades. Another golden opportunity squandered. This is actually the worst of them because there is no way it gets fixed. Wray was awful but he could be fired.

It is no stretch of the imagination that she has been compromised. Some very scary people came to talk with her about her and her families “health and well-being “.

It’s a case about the Universal Service Fee (Obamaphone + some landlines) apparently.

The USF program basically a tax plus procurements.

To participate in the USF program a provider must provide at least X for no more than $Y.

Letting a low-income (or federal welfare program receiving) person pick from acceptable phone service providers is not fundamentally different than letting the person pick a doctor for a Medicaid visit.

Please state why the FCC should lose if you can.

I remember Ted Cruz advising against Barrett. he was pushing another female judge, whose name escapes me, for SCOTUS when everyone else was touting Barrett.

Coney-Barrett is a back-stabber. One of Trump’s worst picks from his first presidency. Unlike the others, he can’t get rid of her.

I fully expect her to uphold Judge Boasberg’s order halting the deportation of violent criminals.
