What is wrong with Barrett?

She is a paid shill, no different than Kamungie ( the female S judge who has not actually read the Constitution, its ammendments, or has an understanding of the definition of what a woman is )

Kavanagh isn't far behind, also IMHO

If she was teaching a class at Harvard she would call her own decisions unconstitutional. She has been corrupted by Schumer and his threats against her. Schummers jurror tampering has been an overwhelming success!!

Schumer, the guy who according to a recent press photo intended to humanize him, eats his cheeseburgers raw, seems to have a side gig threatening the Supreme Court for Democrat causes. With luck he will become Senate Minority Leader and fade into history. His MO seems to be vague, but loud open threats of violence. Keep in mind that the Supremes live in upper classed DC neighborhoods, are not guaranteed Secret Service or other security, and have not needed it until Democrats lost majority control of the Court and their thugs (think Black Lives Matter) moved in.

They make enough money. Pay for security if you have to.

If we had 8 other Clarence Thomas members on the SC, we wouldnt have this issue of intentional mis-interpretation

Clarence Thomas will someday be hailed as one of the greatest Justices. I do disagree though that the Supremes pay for their own security regardless of wealth. 64 million mostly concentrated in the Roberts household is not all that much money by current DC standards. I have a good friend who grew up in Arlington. His father, a promising scientist with then state of the art equipment patents, died at a very young age, but his mother was a professional too, so they stayed. My friend and his sister sold the family home when his mother became incapacitated needing nursing home care much later for, as I recall $34 k. The house is still there and the last time I know of it was listed and the asking price was between 3 and 4 million! I know because my friend was amazed. That was long enough ago that it could have turned over two to four times or more. Perhaps not Georgetown or Alexandria, but still a very pricey neighborhood. As I recall near a Metro Station too.

DC was small town America in the fifties and sixties. One of my friendтАЩs friendтАЩs mother was the secretary to the head of the NSA.

Okay, then let zelensky pay for it, instead of buying island resorts, and historic english castles.

Yes, judge Thomas is the real deal

I suspect that the only reason Zelensky is still alive is that the Russians prefer him to an honest, competent, well trained adversary. HmmmтАж I hadnтАЩt heard about the Castle!

Frankly, the Supreme Court Justices should not need security and havenтАЩt until recently needed any sort of protection beyond anonymity. The left is trying to threaten them into submission and locals like the rat faced Senator, Schumer knows where they live and are leading the charge, fundamentally threatening our rights so in a way protecting them protects us.

I did not know about Schumer, and his threats.

What does loser Schumer have on ACB ? Has he found poopie stains in her underwear drawer, that should be made public, anyway?

Hmmm. Can't help but wonder what his ace card he is holding, really is.

Pedo Island?

I think SchumerтАЩs threats to Gorsuch and Kavansugh prompted the demonstrations at AC BarrettтАЩs home and I believe her 6 or 7 kids were threatened as well. If Trump wins she should resign. IтАЩve said before now is no time for cowardice at her position. Hard to believe in this case Barrett went along with the liberals and Jackson sided with the conservatives, what the hell is going on in there!!!!

During her Senate confirmation hearing she was battered, ridiculed, insulted, mocked, embarrassed, accused of Catholic witchery and the like. The DOJ refused police protect when her and Kavanaugh's homes were under protests by the Dem mobs. She must be proving herself worthy of Dem admiration.

The Federalist's batting average is bad enough to bench them.

There was a photo of Mrs ACB and her family (9 children of mixed origins). Laudable to be sure, but may hint a liberal tendancies?

The saying 'don't judge a book by its cover' forces one to open it and read it. Yes Jean, I believe that 'community' holds a special place in ACB's thinking. She has a sharp mind and a good memory. What she thinks is the problem, we don't know . . . :) Perhaps she fits no one's category politically.

I have not read her recent dissent. Will try to wrap my head around her thinking soon. The first ruling that was off-putting was Colorado moving Trump from the ballot. 9-0 hooray, but Barrett had to add that Congress should pass legislation that clarifies the Amendment (!) Raskin and company were overjoyed by that.
