Amy Coney Barrett initially failed to disclose talks on Roe v. Wade hosted by anti-abortion groups on Senate paperwork
CNN ^ | October 9th 2020 | Andrew Kaczynski and Em Steck

Judge Amy Coney Barrett initially failed to disclose two talks she gave in 2013 hosted by two anti-abortion student groups on paperwork provided to the Senate ahead of her confirmation hearing to become the next Supreme Court justice.

Barrett, President Donald Trump's nominee to succeed Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, gave the talks in 2013 in her capacity as a law professor at the University of Notre Dame. The seminar was co-sponsored by the school's Right to Life club and constitutional studies minor, and the lecture was held by the law school's Jus Vitae club.

Late on Friday night, hours after this story published, the Senate Judiciary Committee released a supplemental update to Barrett's committee questionnaire that includes the lecture and seminar, as well as a paid advertisement she signed that criticized Roe v. Wade and reaffirmed support for Notre Dame's "commitment to the right to life."

Barrett's initial failure to disclose the two events also raises questions about whether the questionnaire is complete or whether there will be any consequences from the Republican-led Senate Judiciary Committee, which oversees her confirmation hearing. Past chairmen of the powerful committee have halted the nomination process after judicial nominees omitted information in their Senate paperwork but under committee Chairman Lindsey Graham that scenario is unlikely.

The committee has slated a hearing for Barrett on October 12 in an effort to confirm her by the full Senate before the election.

Senate Democrats on the Judiciary Committee sent a letter to the Justice Department this week that said Barrett did omit materials concerning Roe v. Wade and asked if Barrett omitted any more materials after the National Review reported that Barrett signed a letter on a "right to life" ad in 2006 that called for the end of the landmark legal decision.

Excellent summary of the lying and soulless CNN thugs pretending to be reporters!

Are we supposed to believe that this means Judge Barrett was attempting to conceal the fact that she is pro life? What garbage!

To the left, abortion is the ultimate form of avoiding the consequences of ones actions. And they are all about avoiding consequences.

Kamala Harris Sponsored Bill to FORCE Schools To Let Male Athletes Compete In Girls’ Sports... Dems who didn’t support this get kicked out.Through redistricting....

Democratic candidate for America’s Vice President California Sen. Kamala Harris sponsored a Senate bill that would that would force funding public schools to allow biologically male athletes who identify as transgender on girls’ sports teams. :

. In March 2019, Harris cosponsored the Equality Act, which would amend the Civil Rights Act of 1964 . Among other things, the bill would force public schools to expand female athletic teams to include biological males who identify as transgender girls

.Also did this http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3877896/posts and this http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3880192/posts

HERE’S HOW THEY TREAT CONSERVATIVE CONGRESSIONAL DEMOCRATS WHO DONT SUPPORT FUNDING STUFF LIKE THIS

And why there is no such thing as a Conservative Dem in Congress An example is Illinois 3rd district

Todays Democrats weren’t happy with his following in his fathers footsteps votes against supporting abortion and on being the only congressional democrat to vote NO on allowing men to to call themselves a women and compete with women in college sports.

So when William O announced his intentions to retire in 2012 the so called liberals not only reshaped the Congressional district but also fractured the Lipinski power base the Chicago 23rd ward,the conservative Daniel Lipinski gained from his father William O Lipinski, and lost because of redistricting. The socialists which now run the party created a district Illinois 3rd which removed city wards that were previously included to his 23rd.

The 5th was a district in the 1950’s was a part of the third largest school district in the country run by the Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago. Those city wards were primarily composed of dozens of traditional value family oriented Catholic/Christian communities centered around churches and their schools. Hence opposed to funding such things as abortion and LGBT activities rather that dealt exclusively with city issues such as a subway L service and the Stevenson Expressway. These Wards were reliable supporters of Dan’s father, William O Lipinski. But where many had areas with hispanic last names those areas were redistricted and assigned to the Gutieriez’s district. Where areas where buildings were abandoned affected by the no money down home mortgages or had changed because of this.

What’s not being looked at is how Chicago wards have been redistricted. Chicago has had neighborhoods divided to create “Hispanic”residential sections going to Hispanic aldermanic and congressional (Gutierez) candidates and blacks going to black candidates.Which apparently is the result of the turnover in the Freddie and Fanny mortgage collapse. As stable integrated areas changed into being unstable because of constant dwelling turnover.had the effect of breaking up a contiguous geographic continuity and community identity. Because the wards affected which are really like small towns have had sections broken up into areas where if a problem arises in a given section of street which has one way traffic only. It may be two way a block down because it’s in a different ward. The same applies to all other city services including zoning where serving socialist ideologic political purposes single dwelling units are removed and replaced by multiple high rise apartments complcating city services such as sanitation where garbage collection routes are organized by ward boundaries. Which disrupts living style where that is permitted to happen.

50 year Alderman Burke who is under federal charges for corruption ward is an example. Burke’s ward ,14th, needed remapping . The 14th was originally known as “Back of The Yards” Once the home of the famous Chicago Stock Yards where most food processors along with employee demographics have since relocated. It was a compact area almost 15 plus city blocks square area composed mostly of single and 2 story frame and brick family dwellings mixed with scattered brick apartment units. Because of the construction, insurance rates varied and became known as the condemned as “redlining”. When the democrats also warily supported by the Bush 2 administration came up with the no 20% down mortgage removed. Areas in the ward dramatically changed in demographics. Many of those dwellings sold under those conditions went into disrepair or default.

Originally his ward headquarters and palace was on 51st street just west of Damen Avenue. Today’s palace is just off of Pulaski Road near the Madam Curie high school just off of Archer Avenue miles away.

His ward now consists of areas carved from parts of the 12th (known as Mc Kinley Park and Brighton Park) and parts of the 23rd (known as Archer Heights Garfield Ridge and Clearing) wards Miles from the original 14th That In a former section of the 23rd ward now the 14th ward in the Midway airport area, 2 patrons in a local bar along Archer avenue were heard complaining about rats in their garbage. They felt it was because of the delay in garbage collection. Also heard the same beef about street snow removal. It has also played hell on zoning and because of the disruption of jurisdictions with the administration of city services such as streets and sanitation which the alderman (salary $120.000 plus allocations on local projects) do oversee and have input over.

By.employing this concept of remapping are residents are being denied the representation they should have ?

So a ward such as the 14th run for 50 years by Edmund Burke now under corruption charges was remapped to include portions of other wards mainly the 23rd Those results are posted below which actually tear up the concept of a neighborhood and pit people against each other by using division.In some of those wards areas of city blocks which were zoned exclusively for single family dwellings residents suddenly found their neighborhood having houses torn down and being replaced with multiple apartments with the units not required to furnish parking facilities and many renters were illegals. Much of which fit the plans for the suburbs

CNN is not woke to the current fever in the country to reverse Roe vs Wade. They think that slandering Amy Barrett will bring them favor. It will not. Not only that, the Senate will be the electors, not the women they are playing to.

The time factor wouldn’t have mattered; they have had prepared attacks ever since she was confirmed to the Circuit Court. Moreover, dems don’t need much time to go off the rails with insane accusationsl

Biden and Harris response to what follows - “hohum.”

Let’s look at the evidence that Justice Ginsburg heard during Gonzales v. Carhart:

The court recited an abortion doctor’s clinical description of the partial-birth abortion procedure. Then it went on to quote a nurse who happened to witness the procedure: “The baby’s little fingers were clasping and unclasping and his little feet were kicking. Then the doctor stuck the scissors in the back of his head, and the baby’s arms jerked out, like a startled reaction, like a flinch, like a baby does when he thinks he’s going to fall. The doctor opened the scissors, stuck a high-powered suction tube into the opening and sucked the baby’s brains out. Now the baby went completely limp.”

Hi newb!

This is the gambit?

It might have been a 3rd-tier calumny in any other year than a presidential election year. This doesn't even measure up to the Kavanaugh frauds who accused him of failing to pay for a subway seat.

But in this presidential election year of #202, it is far more likely to motivate Trump's base -- who know that abortion is simply a black holocaust machine, and we want to stop it.

Right, and on top of that, the nastier they are to her during confirmation, the less sympathetic she’ll be to their causes once she’s on the court.

She’s human. Kavanaugh is human. Clarence Thomas is human.

I know they try to be objective in their rulings - but when the Leftists are pulling their usual shit - trying to subvert the Constitution - you can’t tell me these conservative justices are above exacting a little revenge for what these a-holes put them through - feeling a little schadenfreude when they cast their conservative vote.

You would think that the U.S. Supreme Court had little else to do other than to fight for Row v. Wade. Perhaps one should follow the $$$$$s here...women’s health is way down the line....baby parts for sale is a huge ‘industry’. That is what the fuss is all about. imho.
