What a freaking LIAR! Makes my blood boil!

Anyone remember this total BS from the handmaid last year?

Washington — Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett argued Sunday that decisions by the high court aren't driven by political views and said she and her colleagues on the court are not a "bunch of partisan hacks," according to reports.

Barrett told an audience at a lecture hosted by the McConnell Center at the University of Louisville that her goal in the speech "is to convince you that this court is not comprised of a bunch of partisan hacks," the Courier Journal reported.

(snip)

During her remarks Sunday, Barrett also spoke of the public's perception of the Supreme Court, warning justices must be "hyper vigilant to make sure they're not letting personal biases creep into their decisions, since judges are people, too," according to the Associated Press.

Barrett is a Supreme Embarrassment.

Expansion of the high court will be necessary.

I don't recall where I heard his name, but what a fuckwad. Seems he got a job because people felt sorry for him because someone put a pubic hair on his can of Coke.

That's a synonym for "a bunch of partisan hacks," in my book.

She doesn't make any decisions without first getting his permission, so why are we even bothering with her?

Mindless Stepford Wife with an unhealthy religious indoctrination added in. Just what the SC needed.

Not medical or even ethical for that matter.

So she isn’t completely wrong with the words her lord and master made her say.
