OK, I thought that there had to be at least two memebers of the minority on the committee in order to have a quorum. Is that not the case?

Also, once Judge Barrett becomes Justice Barrett, the court will be 5-4, not 6-3. Stop putting slimy Chief Traitor Roberts in the Conservative column.

Maybe there was a motion to suspend the rules?

Obviously not.

Yes, I think that Collins and Murkowski may be no votes. But that still leaves 51 Republicans. Well, any other defectors, we have Mike Pence warming up in the bullpen, if you get my meaning. I wonder if someone like Romney would stick it to Trump and vote no?

Those 2 may not vote at all and Romney is on record as a Yes.

Here is what one of ACB’s law professors wrote to Justice Antonin Scalia recommending her for a Supreme Court clerkship:

“There’s just consensus: Amy Barrett, is the best student, the smartest and most talented person to ever come through the University of Notre Dame Law School,” O. Carter Snead, a professor at Notre Dame Law School, told the Chicago Sun-Times.

She graduated number one in her law school class.

She puts the liberal hacks, appointed as Justices by Democrats, to shame.

Sadly, thanks to Dread Pirate Roberts, SCOTUS ruled PA can accept mail-in ballots up to 3 days after the election thus facilitating DNC/Communist party voter fraud.

So with ACB, it becomes a 5-4 constitutional conservative majority.

Apparently the Senate majority can change the rules, at least most of them, anytime they want. For once Republicans did it in our favor.

“If you wanted to control the process you should have won the Senate, Chuckie. Elections have consequences,”

Of course they will use that same argument to pack the court if they take control of house, senate, and presidency.

“...Democrats on the committee boycotted the vote Thursday, resulting in a 12-0 vote in favor of the nomination...”

American men and women fought, bled and died to institute and maintain our judicial system. Even today, there people all over the world, in countries with NO sort of representation in processes like this...yet these half-wit Liberals choose to mock the whole thing by a ‘boycott’?

They need to grow up

Baloney. Roberts in no conservative and has shown time and time again that he has no qualms about legislating from the bench as he has repeatedly done with ObaMaoCare and ObaMao’s executive orders.


Agree. Plus Gorsuch and Kavanaugh have taken turns voting with Dems on very important cases. I would expect that to continue. Even with ACB there is nothing close to a conservative majority on the SCOTUS and likely never will be.

Roberts isn’t compromised. He’s a progressive-corportist like the POTUS who nominated him. He votes for the Chamber of Commerce and with the liberals on social issues.

“If Barrett is confirmed to the lifetime appointment, the Supreme Court would have a 6-3 conservative majority.”

More like 5-4.

“Yes, I think that Collins and Murkowski may be no votes.”

I think this is why Pence went to Maine.
