Seems she sides with government & corporate interests too often:

Yeah I saw that and it made me very dissapointed, also very dissapointed that she apparently is pro forced vaxx? Maybe a bit too auth right? I do appreciate that she is pro life though.

I cant seem to find where I first read it. Found this however , IT does seem a little fake news ish though. Natural news isnt really a credible source?  Hoping this is fake news. Being so pro lockdown though is scary to me, shows some auth tendencies?

Yeah, that really seems like a huge stretch, and yes, Natural News is known for clickbait and conspiracy shit.

Too late now, she will be confirmed. Perhaps she will grow more conservative in the job.  In any case, compared to RBG Amy is a gem.

That is very true, in any case. Even though Amy might be a bit too authoritarian for my tastes, she is not that bad compared to RBG and whoever Joe Biden would end up nominating

Here is the text of the opening statement that Judge Barrett will give tomorrow 12 Oct.

My favorite graph:

QuoteCourts have a vital responsibility to enforce the rule of law, which is critical to a free society. But courts are not designed to solve every problem or right every wrong in our public life. The policy decisions and value judgments of government must be made by the political branches elected by and accountable to the People. The public should not expect courts to do so, and courts should not try.

It really makes no difference how Conservative nor liberal the judge is. Democrats will do everything they can to filibuster, throw a temper tantrum and claim that she isn't good enough simply because President Trump nominated her.
