From four days ago... Yeah, I know. Bloomberg claimed to have a list of five potential nominees from a secret source, and other sites picked that up from Bloomberg. That's the reason for the particular names seen on the list (more feminist picks, more Catholic picks, unknowns on key issues, perhaps leaning toward more immunities and power for agents of governments, compromises for Democrats, etc.).

Don Willett was also endorsed by the NRA (Bearing Arms site) and Gun Owners of America (The Trace: evil gun control site).

Here's a guest column written by Don Willett.

Justice Don R. Willett, guest columnist: Online resource helps us better understand our Constitution

I don't know why "The Associated Press" appears on Rachel's column page. She writes for Dallas News.

Here's a tidbit in regards to philanthropy.

"Barrett is a mother of seven children, including a special needs child and two children adopted from Haiti."

Some political Catholics have also been promoting her for the Supreme Court, because...Catholic and female, of course.

“...Bloomberg claimed to have a list of five potential nominees from a secret source,”.

I am so done with “secret” (”unnamed”, “confidential”, et al) sources and I refuse to believe ANY news story that cites such a source.

If they can’t name a source, it didn’t happen.

We will know on July 9th.

Not to pee in everyone’s popcorn, but with a 51(50)/49 majority and Collins/Murkowski threatening to jump ship over the abortion issue it’s pretty obvious that a Gorsuch clone would be our best bet. If the nominee fails it’s going to push the next nominee past the November elections.

If President Trump nominates a solid Conservative woman for the bench Gloria Allred will be in tears hahaha

Willett would be my top choice. There are some others on Trump’s list who also look like good choices though. There are some others I just don’t know enough about.
