The history of evolvers has always been men. The worst ones were Earl Warren, Harry Blackmun, and David Souter. Republican men all. O’Connor was never a solid conservative. The other women have all been picked because they were radicals and leftists.

Oh she even has three names.

How quaint.

At least it’s not Beauregard. In all seriousness I really do believe that Cruz would be the most likely to ‘evolve.’ One possible out would be an upper age limit to serve, like 70-75. No dementia. No sudden drama. Will the drama go down when the left realizes it doesn’t buy them anything?

Barrett graduated from and later taught at Notre Dame Law School. Notre Dame’s Law School has a reputation of being more conservative than the Ivy League law schools.

here are her other credentials.......”After graduation, Barrett served as a law clerk to Judge Laurence Silberman of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. She then spent a year as clerk to Associate Justice Antonin Scalia of the Supreme Court from 1998-1999”.

Now you can all accuse me of being a homer for a domer, but she’s pro life all the way and clerking for Silberman and Scalia is as good as it gets. Flame away

46, 7 children, devout Catholic and Notre Dame instead of another justice from Harvard

I’d rather it just be made clear for all federal judges, you either uphold the Constitution as it is written, or you get removed from the bench pronto.

I am so sick of black robed, activist, unaccountable presidents.

*****************************
The pro-lifers of the day opposed her nomination — with good reason.

That may be something of a media creation. She’s listed as “Amy C. Barrett” on the Seventh Circuit website.

Cruz would “evolve”into the Corporatist/Globalist shill he already is. Ultimately these shills would give away our Constitution to a New World Order or a Union of the Americas ala the EU.

Teach your children and grandchildren about this.

Look at her hearings for confirmation to her present position. The baby killer caucus would totally lose it if she were nominated. Would be a great choice for that reason alone.

Or it may not.

I need to see she understands Natural Rights vs the tradCath Natural Law.

Any candidate for Supreme Court justice that cannot defend Natural Rights is unfit for the federal bench, much less the highest court.

Isn't she the one to whom Feinstein said, "The dogma lives loudly in you"? That's good enough for me!!!!

You use the term “Globalist”, question... how is this related to interpreting the constitution?

Can you imagine a particular case where globalism (e.g., trades, tariffs, working visas) might be an issue?

All of which makes me interested to know her stance on immigration. Especially the Catholic part. I’m definitely not saying that it follows, as day follows night, that because she’s Catholic she’d be prone to oppose measures to limit immigration, but it’s not out of line to ask the question.
