Senate to vote Monday to confirm Amy Coney Barrett to Supreme Court

The Senate will vote Monday on confirming President Trump's nominee, Judge Amy Coney Barrett, to the Supreme Court.

"With regard to the Supreme Court justice ... we'll be voting to confirm justice-to-be Barrett next Monday," Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said during a weekly press conference, confirming the timing of a final vote on her nomination.

...

Top GOP senators and aides had previously indicated to The Hill that they were likely to set up the final vote for Monday, allowing vulnerable GOP senators to spend the final week before the election back on the campaign trail.

To set up a final vote on Monday, McConnell is expected to tee up Barrett's nomination on Friday, a day after the Judiciary Committee is expected to sign off on her nomination.

The Senate will then hold a procedural vote on Sunday. After that, senators could still debate her nomination for an additional 30 hours.

In the quest for justice and equality, I’m sure all the females in the senate will vote yea. Right?

When Hillary ran for president, we were told there is a special place in hell, for women who don’t support other women. Presumeably that applies to any women going for a powerful position, and not just Hillary for president.

She is going to kick some totalitarian leftist butt.

[BigEdLB]

Yes. Somehow we have been on the right side for almost 250 years

[pfflier]

Yes my worry too. And the dims always wait until Friday to put the turd in the punchbowl. That gives them all weekend to be on the talkshows posing as news and analysis.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Since the days of the His Cuckness Paul Ryan, we have been cutting it too close. How many times did Ryan promise a vote on The Wall. It was always "next session" or "next term". I hope Judge Jeanine bumps into him at Fox and bitch slaps him like the little punk that Ryan is.

Praying for Judge Amy.

Well Mittens is a yes so Chuck E Cheese has ordered extra depends

[ClearCase_guy]

Any Republican showing up on next Sunday’s talk shows ought to consistently say: “Global Warming? Thanks so much for asking about the Biden Criminal Enterprise and those horrific videos. Here’s what I have to say about that …”

[AAABEST]

“WTF JUST HAPPENED?”....cocaine Mitch dont play....

When Swamp Turtle swings his nads around, shit gets done in DC.

[SunkenCiv]

• I am forcing a vote tonight to adjourn the Senate until after the November election.
• GOP turns back Schumer motion to shut down Senate in protest of Barrett confirmation effort

[Secret Agent Man]

works for me

right now the only big good thing to look forward to

[Nachoman]

I’m almost thinking many Dems will vote for her....pretending to play nice nice.

Hitler could only dream of having Nazis as loyal and obedient as Democrats.

[JerseyDvl]

I’m still not convinced there will be a vote and don’t understand why they’re dragging this out. They should have done it yesterday.
This only gives the Democrats a chance to infect the building with covid or just burn it down to prevent anything from happening. I’m not putting anything past them.

[I want the USA back]

Good. Watch democrat heads burst into flames.

[onona]

Monday will be a day of exuberant celebration !!

[Phillyred]

yep, they just need one fake beach friend story and they’ll get the GOP to delay the vote. Hope I am wrong.
