Amy Coney Barrett, a federal appellate court judge, has emerged as one of the front-runners to fill the Supreme Court seat left vacant by the death of Justice Ginsburg, 3 sources tell NBCNews.

Trump also said his nominee would"most likely" be a woman.

Ginsburg, a lifelong champion of women's rights and a fierce advocate for gender equality, died Friday"surrounded by her family at her home in Washington, D.C., due to complications of metastatic pancreas cancer," according to a statement from the court.The potential obstacles for Barrett are her views on abortion, which could complicate her confirmation, given that her position is the polar opposite of Ginsburg’s legacy on abortion rights.

Attention is also being focused on 38-year-old North Carolina native Allison Rushing, who currently serves as a judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit based in Virginia. But as NBC News: “While Rushing made headlines for becoming one of the youngest and least experienced members of the federal judiciary, she also garnered attention because of her decadelong association with one of the most well-known anti-gay groups.

In addition, two other judges are under serious consideration to fill the Supreme Court vacancy, according to multiple sources familiar with the vetting process. One is Barbara Lagoa, a 52-year-old from Florida, who is a judge on U.S Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit based in Georgia; the other is Amul Thapar, 51, who sits on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit based in Cincinnati and

Why not the most qualified person, Donny? Why a woman? Is there some quota? I thought you and your minions were opposed to quotas....or are you looking for women’s votes and you think that’ll help you... hahahahahahah

Good News!

apparently one of the women being considered is Melania's friend 'Kitty' who was photographed tickling the First Lady's nipples in an adult themed photo shoot from the late 90's. Kitty is now a conservative Christian 'Trumplican' living in Virginia. 🇺🇲

He could choose Mother Theresa and I would not accept just because he made the choice and you know he has a plan to screw it up.

48 years old 7 children Does she support birth control

Religious nut and anti-......... Really great choice!

senatemajldr LindseyGrahamSC RandPaul & others in US Congress & realDonaldTrump Mike_Pence should Judial Confirm Amy Barrett for SCOTUS She sounds perfect to be on the SCOTUS & be a Judial Member of SCOTUS.

Don’t like it? Blame Schumer & Harry Reid.

She supports her religious law over the Constitution. Tell me how that is different than sharia law? I'm waiting....

RBG words: When asked if the Senate should consider then-President Barack Obama’s nominee, Merrick Garland, Ginsburg said, “That’s their job,” the New York Times “There’s nothing in the Constitution that says the president stops being president in his last year,” Ginsburg added.

Well, well, my pretties.

China; save us

Irrelevant and illegitimate.

It will be a woman who does whatever her GOP party tells her to do, just as they expect their wives to do. Look the other way no matter I do, how lie, how I cheat. You take care of the kids and always, always bow down to me.

Of course the Democrats are bound to pull a stunt with the help of media which one of the questionable media Outlets comes out with the dirty laundry

After he checks her gag reflex.

And DEMORATS MUST WALK OUT

whyfund The new ISIS- Christian Supremecy

Trumps List of potential women supreme court nominee

The complete antithesis of what RBG was and stood for.....btw, Barrett has her job bc of RBG’s advocacy!!

Just what we need, another Catholic Dominionist leading us to Dictatorship and tyranny by the minority! She and Barr are birds of a feather. Fight against her with everything we have!

Women need to be able to determine what they want and can do with their own body.

Bet she licks a good dic*

I will be the first one to say, POTUS gets to pick their nominees, that's why elections have consequences. If Trump wins, the direction of the courts will go his way, if Biden wins it goes his way. Let the people decide, voting has already begun. Vote if you care!

IF tRump and McConnell like her she must be horrible and closer to Q than to the constitution

Would be a great pick. Fill the seat now!

She is a 'leader' in a religious cult. Ick!

Here come the liberal attacks

What an accomplished woman. 7 kids; 2 adopted ♡!

Irrelevant.

GOP trying to shove a female at us and then complain we are anti feminist when we shove her right back at them. The sucking up to the ultra religiosity is so so obvious.

Did she take the “loyalty oath”?

So with all these new Babies, that will be born and not taken care of. I'm assuming all the pro life supporters, will be adopting or calling for more funding for welfare right?

POTUS is elected for FOUR yeras; therefore, Trump has the right to nominate someone to SCOTUS. If the DNC held both the WH and the Senate, they'd do the same.

A woman who doesn’t understand woman rights has no place in court...🇺🇸

Look up People of Praise

Isn't it time for a non-religious person or another member of a protestant faith. How does a Scotus mix serve the people when it does not mirror the people. Now, religions that account for 22% of the country account for 88% of court. And yes, I am trying to divide the GOP.

FILL THE SEAT

Nominate her and let’s Democrats vote her down! Awesome move by R!

If she is worth her salt, she will recommend waiting until after the election. Follow history, ma’am

We don’t want this lady in the courts.

GOINGGREEN HAWKINSWALKER2020 WHERE BERNIES POLICIES HAVE ALWAYS BEEN

She is exquisitely awful.

From a trailblazer who advanced equality & equal rights to an archaic, non-mainstream Catholic several hundred years behind the times. No thanks!

Ah yes. Just what we need. Another woman wishing we lived in Gilead. 😞

Judge Barrett's main qualification is being a member of a pedophile friendly superstitious cult that is high authoritarian and fearing female sexuality. Vote Blue for all our sake.

She looks like a younger and crazier Betty DeVos.

FillTheSeat 🇺🇸

I nominate Sidney Powell

Probably one that wants to overturn Roe vs Wade..

Great job! Any democrat that opposes will be a misogynist and a hypocrite!

Another attempt to divert our attention & change the subject from 200,000 Covid-19 deaths because of his lies, inaction and incompetence, the Russian bounties, 6.5 trillion $ debt, 30 million jobs lost & disrespect of our military. Register Vote EARLY Straight BLUE Biden/Harris

A favour from hell which will require incessant evil favours from hell in return.

Awesome Louisiana native!!!

Can you feel it ?

why does it have to be a women? sounds like the left mentality.

The GOP will pay for this.

Why would MSNBC promote joe Biden? A man that ON CAMERA pulls little girls (that are resisting) into his arms and then sniffs there hair while grinning like he won a prize. Are the Filthy rich democrats that own NBC & the DNC trying to normalize this behavior. Where’s ME TOO at?

Yayyyyyyyyy a pseudo-religious psycho member of a cult might possibly be a SCOTUS judge!

And, here you are normalizing this. Justice Ginsburg just passed.

Women will be dying at home alone.

A woman’s right to choose her own healthcare decisions will end if she is confirmed.

Seven fucking kids? JFC she trying to give the Duggar’s life a run?

And that should console us because he surrounds himself with such great women now? Enough with the hypocrisy. We need to wait until after the election.

And if she has any grace, honor, and decency, she will decline. No person of honor should accept a nomination from an impeached, psychotic criminal.

How does this not violate the Civil Rights Act of 1964?

Last time we looked we never found when Donald Trump provided for Americans with good intentions. This decision is another for only Trump and his gang of robbers.

She never tried a case before 2017? Unbelievable.

A 'Serena Joy,' you mean. She's a handmaiden for the patriarchy.

A women that will destroy women's rights,

Si cumple con los requisitos, enhorabuena por ella.

NBCNews I think anyone being considered should look at what is happening today and stand down until the next President is in. Integrity is everything.

NBCNews Yes!!

NBCNews I like her.

NBCNews She will be the next Supreme Court Judge. There is NOTHING anyone can do about it.

NBCNews Excellent choice! Let’s hope the president nominates her

_Mama_Doc NBCNews That's right, so suck it, fake news!

NBCNews Amy is amazing!

NBCNews excuse me, it's not trump's pick. It'll be for Biden to decide.
