Confirmation Hearing live: Judge Amy Barrett

[christiefan915]

Most of the Democrats seem convinced Judge Amy is a liar and Trump puppet.

I'm likeing Judge Barrett a lot. She's calm, very professional and highly knowledgeable. A 100% change from Bart O'Kavenaugh.

She comes across as intelligent and unflappable. She didn't say anything that made me dislike her as a person.

I am not a fan of originalism and textualism, though.

It's the conservative point of view. Liberals are big on rewriting the Constitution to fit their view of today. Between the two, I lean to sticking with what the Founders intended which was to give more freedom to American citizens and less to the Federal government.

What questions are Judge Amy dodging?

BTW, she's been married since 1999 and has 7 kids including special needs and minority. Why do you think she's a whore?

He's calling Teflon a stupid whore.

Check out Spartacus lol.

He’s nearly breathless in fear, awaiting ACB’s answer to The Other Question. And the look on her face says it all: “really, you’re seriously going to ask me that?”

What a clown and what a clown show. This is actually embarrassing. Stop the hearing and hold the vote.

I think Don is more of a slut than a whore. Jus' sayin'.

What is ACB’s stance on the Proud Boys?

She denounced White Supremacy but the Proud Boys didn't come up by name.

She's going to be a great Justice. Her confirmation is making Brat O'Kavanaugh look like a rich, spoiled brat.

I don't see how you can avoid looking at how the Constitution applies today because the country's changed so much since 1789.

i WAS NOT ADDRESSING YOU.

THE ASSHOLE I was addressing SAID HE HATED ME, AND PEOPLE LIKE ME, SO i TOLD HIM TO fuck off then!

And I don't care how many Democrats there are, but I'm willing to say that I believe it is more than just 30%.

And no. I'm not just the typical Democrat anymore that let's you Democrat haters say things about Democrats that are untrue- WITHOUT HAVING A FEW THINGS TO I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT REPUBLICANS.

Just knowing that most of the Republicans are voting for Donald Trump, I can say with confidence and accuracy that the Republicans endorse lying, cheating, WHite Nationalism, Racism, Misogyny, Autocracy, government corruption, voter suppression, and Gun violence and think they are all above the law.

It's actually closer to 38%, last time I checked. Independents swamp them both though.

Good thing, because I doubt she knows any more about the PB than Chris Wallace does. Isn’t saying much, unfortunately. Why does anyone care about the Proud Boys? Who told us we’re supposed to even know who they are?

I actually agree that ACB is more impressive than Kavanaugh.

Tech changes, but people haven't changed in over 30,000 years**.



**30,000 years ago was when it's estimated modern thinking man began. Anatomically modern man is over 200,000 years.

Well... people have changed in the last 200+ years. Look at voting rights, for instance.

Because they are Trump's boys; standing down and standing by.

Governments have changed, not people. If you and others want to amend the Constitution, go for it.

The key point I always consider is answering the question "Does this improve rights of Americans or does it restrict their rights?"

Well, it’s good to know some obscure Western chauvinists are standing down and standing by lol.

Be sleeping easy tonight.

Yes, well the Independents are not the ones deciding this election- It's the college degreed and the WOMEN obviously.

I was never much a fan of Kavanaugh because of his corporatist leanings, but after seeing how ridiculous Ford's accusations were, I had to take his side.

His confirmation was a nice fuck you to all the feminist extremists and Democratic opportunists.

Society has changed. People... not so much.

It turns out not everybody believes the Proud Boys are white supremacists, including a prominent Black professor at a historically Black university.

Wilfred Reilly, associate professor of political science at Kentucky State University, said Wednesday that “the Proud Boys aren’t white supremacists,” describing the right-wing group’s beliefs as “Western chauvinist” and noting that their international chairman, Enrique Tarrio, is Black.

“Gotta say: the Proud Boys aren’t white supremacists,” tweeted Mr. Reilly, author of “Hate Crime Hoax.”

The Proud Boys came under the microscope after President Trump refused during Tuesday’s presidential debate to condemn them as white supremacists, saying, “Proud Boys — stand back and stand by,” prompting accusations that he was supporting virulent racists.

Mr. Reilly said that about 10% to 20% of Proud Boys activists are people of color, a diverse racial composition that is “extremely well-known in law enforcement,” based on his research.

“Enrique Tarrio, their overall leader, is a Black Cuban dude. The Proud Boys explicitly say they’re not racist,” Mr. Reilly told The Washington Times. “They are an openly right-leaning group and they’ll openly fight you — they don’t deny any of this — but saying they’re White supremacist: If you’re talking about a group of people more than 10% people of color and headed by an Afro-Latino guy, that doesn’t make sense.”
