  1. Grooming ,signalling,call it what you desire

  2. I don’t think she knows about law maybe agendas is her game

  3. Isn’t she great ,winning all those awards

  4. She voted for vaccine mandates

  5. Did you see her with Senator McConnell speaking at an Republic hack event saying the Supreme Court is not partisan & gets judged as partisan. Women wake up this lady willAnnihilate roll versus Wade!

  6. I don't understand… why so political? Isn't the justice system supposed to be systematic? If someone had an abortion in a region that is illegal then she should get punished and if she had that abortion somewhere legal then she should be alright. no emotion should come in this. that simple.

  7. she is the traitors stabbed someone's back. God Bless Our President Trump is too good to the traitors Barrett

  8. The America we all know it is #OVER.

  9. "She has been critical of ObamaCare because it required employers to cover birth control" – but a judge is there to interpret the law, not to bend the law to her convictions, and contraception is not illegal. Same with LBGTQ – she may not like it, but it's not illegal.

  10. Debs husband says I can solve the abortion issue in one statement. Keep your pants up!

  11. Just in: Mariah Carey, endorses Biden/Harris via twitter. Vote 💙💙💙🌊🌊🌊 All the way!!

  12. This should be left to the president elect and the american people if she is fit for supreme court judge

  13. No,she's not to be trusted ,and isn't fit for this position 🤔

  14. 하루하루 폭삭 삭네?

  15. Just say no to Amy!! It’s going to be Biden’s pick!!!!

  16. I like her for some reason but I wonder if she will be fair? I pray that she is for the sake of America, I pray that she is not partisan in her decision making moving forward once confirmed. I look on anxiously…

  17. https://youtu.be/cjcXVKg43qY
    Senator Snhelden Whitehouse speaks of the ongoing republican DARK money scheme that has INFLUENCED the Supreme Court
    Gor yrs!

  18. I have never seen a worse job application interview. Barett didn´t have any opinion on anything. Is this normal in US businesses when hiring a person for liftime??

  19. Imagine what our public life would be like if all public servants could ignore or side-step very basic questions that might ultimately mean life or death?

  20. If she believes that Coronavirus is infectious, why then did she bring her children unmasked to the Rose Garden to be confined in a room, less than 6 feet from the President, who spewed his virus-ridden breath in their direction. Does this woman believe that children don't die from Coronavirus?

  21. What happened to seperation from church and state? Pretty much WTF about seperation from government and church, anybody's religion.

  22. The Republicans are only asking us to undo all the damage that they have done. NO PROBLEM YOU PIGS.

  23. Her father was Shell's lawyer/lobbyist for 28 years. That's how she landed her handmaids job with Scalia "her mentor". (Remember Halliburton???). This is the first time an oil corporation has placed a judge on the SCOTUS. No-one is calling her out on this, which means the Democrats are in on the joke.

  24. Another White Person on the SUPREME COURT ???? WHERE IS THE RACIAL JUSTICE IN AMERICA. ???

  25. I HATE GETTING THOSE STUPID TEXT MESSAGES

  26. It all depends on what Donald Trump tells them to do about there free unbiased decision ….. checks and balances Etc… they must have had the discussion about it..but to see if she is genuine and see if she understood what he meant about loyalty that he needs from her.

  27. We are quickly approaching some form of AI being nominated as a Supreme Court Judge.

  28. Democrats support all kinds of immorality the reason they're so afraid of person with faith….

  29. it`s a shame America have to beg this woman to do the right thing when she get appointed.

  30. If she would be honest, she would decline the nomination and offer to be ready after the election!!

  31. am I the only one who finds it weird people actually still believe and practices the teachings of the bible? sorry just seems kind of silly. isn't like half our society against stuff in the bible. how are you supposed to be a devout Christain a be a nonpartisan judge doesn't make sense to me

  32. You are truly wonderful in his eyes.

  33. This woman, like the last few justices and William Barr, is ready to decieve to get into a position of power. She is telling half truths and putting slimy spin on her social views. Vote no by voting Democratic. This will help us nullify some of the damage Trump has done to our democracy. Even if she gets pushed onto the court, she will be constrained by new Democratic bills, laws that protect people and do not take any protections away.

    I did not think this way until Mitch McConnell hypocritically pushed this nomination weeks before an election though he nullified Obama's nominee almost a year before an election, saying it was too near an election. This kind of Republican political dirty trick to retain raw power and deny rights cannot stand in a democracy. It turned me from third party to Democratic for this election. I hope it turns you too for the health of our individual freedoms and democracy. All patriotic Americans who believe in decent honest government must vote Democratic this time.

  34. AND WHO ARE YOU GOING TO NOMINATE THEN BIDEN??? Why doesent anyone ask him? The argument why trump shouldnt nominate now is because the people deserve to know who they vote for, so if they vote for biden, who will they get as a candidate????

    Why are the media cuddling with biden? Is it because hes curly hairy legs?

  35. She doesent agree with the left socialist opinions and she wont do what they want. Then she needs to go!! Whatever it takes, lieing, insulting her or her religion or pack the clurt doesent mather. If you dont agree with the democrats and the leftwing then you are a enemy thats gotta go down. Does americans buy this? Are they not seeing this? I think americans are alot smarter then what the democrats think they are.

  36. The Republican hypocrites are defending Amy Coney Barrett's Catholicism. Great. But why the turn about when John F. Kennedy was campaigning for the presidency? Back then they made a big 'stink' about his Catholicism. They accused Kennedy that if POTUS, he would take orders from the POPE. We need to vote this bunch of Republicans out of office. It's a case of keeping their six-figure salaries, five months of work out of a year, and passing legislation that keeps them out of a lucrative job. Their goals have NOTHING to do with the USA and its people.

  37. also were terrible record on worker's rights

  38. Its a concern if she believed in God

  39. She was not picked out of hope for fairness. She was the most far-right-wing person that could find.

  40. it is very simple. what part of the constitution did she violate? what disqualifies her for being confirmed? and what part of the constitution states that a nomination ends on the 3rd year of the presidency? I believe the late RBG once told that the presidential powers are for a full term of 4 years. I hope people will think critically using logic and reason not just whine and get triggered. brains are very much useful.

    facts will never care about your feeling.

  41. Wait for the PEOPLE to DECIDE AFTER ELECTIONS…PEOPLES CHOICE

  42. Do any of these geniuses commenting here realize there are already five Catholics on the court 2 Jews, and an Episcopalian ?
