In case after case, she’s found procedural technicalities to justify depriving already powerless people of their basic rights

The nomination of Amy Coney Barrett to the US supreme court has been controversial in large part because Republicans are so obviously violating the standard they used to justify keeping Merrick Garland off the supreme court during Obama’s second term. But that hypocrisy has overshadowed the much more important matter: the substance of Barrett’s record, and her likely actions as a supreme court justice.

Again the Guardian doesn't understand the role of judges. Judges are not there to implement justice. Judges are there to uphold the law. Justice is personal. What to Guardian is justice is not justice to others. Law is equal to all.

How dares this womex to have views that differ from those of the British Pravda This is the disease of democracy I have always warned against!!

Yeah she actually believes judges arent legislators. Imagine that.

Liberal network and papers at it again. Making up stories. Good job

What is the actual purpose of the Hearing ? Is there due process ?

has the pros and cons of packing the Supreme Court:

Ah yes. But if she were an ultra Liberal and leftist, she'd be 'perfect' 🙄🙄🙄 hypocrites

A Supreme Court packed with judges whose views the Guardian approved of wouldn't exactly be balanced, would it?

It’s pretty clear that she has been put on the court to strike down the Affordable Care Act, overturn Roe vs Wade and rule in favour of Republicans if the election is disputed. It is and attempt to turn the clock back by 50 years.

Yep, she's 100% Trump-like at times. Accept for when you almost cries, she told everyone.

Tell the truth for once,the problem is,she is not a stinking lefty

So if you agree the timing is OK you are then objecting to a Republican president nominating a right of centre judge to the Supreme Court. You might as well play King Canute.

Actually it’s both the timing and her secret views.

how predictable

🗣️There is No problem at all. Her views are supported by young & old. AmyConeyBarrett ✊

Amy Comey is acting like a Nazi. She reminds me of Roland Freisler, who was also a racist!

A great choice that won't of course go down with the hokey left wing.

Yeah. Obviously.

The EU remains divided over rules and fisheries.
