Democrats to Boycott Committee Vote on Amy Coney Barrett

WASHINGTON—Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee plan to boycott the panel’s Thursday vote on Judge Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination to the Supreme Court, in protest of Republicans’ push to get President Trump’s pick confirmed before Election Day.

Judge Barrett was nominated last month by President Trump to fill the vacancy created by the death of liberal Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and she is expected to solidify a conservative majority on the court if confirmed by the full Senate in the coming days. Democrats say that...

I don’t trust this woman religious fanatic

Typical DNC temper tantrum. Take your ball and go home.

They should!!

Interesting article. Democrats basically have no power, unfortunately.

Symbolic only. badjudge

I would. What is the point?

I find it completely absurd that in the US 1. Supreme court judge is decided by party ideology & politics 2. Not by the collegium system 3. Is a life long appointment & not a fixed 5-10 yrs term 4. There is no seniority / ranking criteria like that of in the armed forces.

Good. The democrat party has no business being involved in grown folks decisions anyway.

WSJ frantically trying to prop up Cash Money Joe. The lied at least once already today about the vaccine trial death. The guy who died never got the vaccine! WSJ lies. A lot.

They are a disgrace.

Babies as always

Americans love ACB! I hope they walk out, it’s petty and will make them look small.

Libtards are boring

A bunch of children. ConfirmACB

Awesome.

'What difference does it make'?

FILL THE SEAT!

This stunt will be procedurally bypassed.

They should be treated the same as the rest of us...if they don’t do their job...we should replace them with someone that will🤙🏽

Oooooh, that will teach them.....

SpeakerPelosi PattyMurray another 2 weeks wasted on you. Quit wasting pur money...we are paying you!

Good

Boo Hoo shant ..wont ...stamp my feet... such childish behavior and you want to elect more of these kids

Children.

Whether she is a handmaid or not, the spouse of a lifetime appointment should also testify due to their matrimonial influences.

So! The boycott help to the working Americans too!

Who cares.

This boycott is just ridiculous. She responded their nasty questions for two full days, and now they said they will not vote? What a waste of time and waste of public money.

I'm glad they can unify to stop her from being chosen but can't unify for the signing of the covid relief.

Mrs. Barrett proclaims herself as an Originalist(constitution must be interpreted based on the original understanding 'at the time it was adopted') I proclaim her as a loyalist, a Trump's loyalist, and nothing else.

Just confirms their lack of integrity

How pathetic. So tired of these sorority girl antics. I bet they all wear the same color clothes.

So she will get unanimous support!

I’m so sorry this is happening to you.

If they vote her in I have no problem with the Dems packing the court. If the Republicans want to be petty I'm fine with the other side doing the same.

Good

Voting no is not enough? They will simply not show up for work?

oh well then she gets voted by just Reps and the dems will be just like voters who don't vote. they don't have a leg to stand on after and should shut the F up

Crybabies

No surprise there. They’re just postponing the inevitable

It seems to be the MO in D.C. If you don't like what's happening, throw a fit and refuse to attend.

Oxford100 Childish.

Amy Coney Barrett: Full Senate to vote on Trump's Supreme Court nominee on MondayThe full Senate plans to vote on Amy Coney Barrett’s confirmation to the Supreme Court on Monday, likely allowing Barrett to take her place as the ninth justice just days before Election Day. If Biden wins in the house and the Senate are in the power of the Democrats, should they repeal the decision? Do they have that power according to the Constitution? Borderline criminal. The GOP would have voters believe they are trustworthy public servants and yet they perform this stunt just four years after blocking Obama from appointing Garland in an election year. It is all about power for the GOP. All their principles are gone.
