She was age 87. She reportedly told her family that she wants the world to wait until a Dem President is elected before her replacement is selected. As always, she want the Constitution to be warped to conform to her whims and delusions.
So back in reality, Trump is President. The Senate is GOP controlled. Trump has already gone through the long-list and short-list processes several times, so they could be ready to go, or just updated.
If a new Justice is selected and seated, then will that be incentive to vote for Trump, or will his purpose be fulfilled for many voters?
The other Libtards on SCOTUS are young enough that they will be there forever, corrupting the legal standards.
Would a seating of Justice be a dis-incentive to vote for Trump?

I was thinking the same thing, to be honest...
I hadn't heard about it until my old man told me late last night. The first thing I told him was that I don't know if this is a good or a bad thing because replacing Ginsberg was 50% of the reason to vote for Trump.
But then I realized that a majority of voters on both sides are very low info and probably don't even think about anything like this unless one of the evil talking heads on either side brings it up and it will probably have very little net effect on the results.
Two more justices are very, very old. 4 years is a long time. Make sure you vote.

If You Care About the Court, Don’t Talk About It
Fixating on the open Supreme Court seat will provoke a culture war.
I know that Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s empty Supreme Court seat has provoked an epic, long-awaited clash between Democrats and Republicans, that the very principle of judicial independence hangs dangerously in the balance. But Democrats should not spend the weeks between now and November talking solely about the Supreme Court.
Why? Fixating on the Court organizes the electorate along two fronts of a culture war, and forces people to make stark ideological choices. Instead of focusing voters on the president’s failure to control COVID-19 or the consequent economic collapse, the culture war makes voters think only of their deepest tribal identities. To put it differently: Americans who define themselves as “pro-life” or as socially conservative might consider voting for Joe Biden if the issue at stake is the botched pandemic response. If the issue is conservative judges versus liberal judges, then they may stick with the Republicans.
Given the quirks of the American electoral system, these undecided voters matter, even more than the fired-up, well-organized inhabitants of liberal enclaves. The Democratic base may now be making record donations to Democratic campaigns, but if money was the only thing that mattered, Jeb Bush would be president. On its own, the Democratic base can’t determine the outcome of presidential elections, let alone the Senate majority. These contests are settled in a small number of states by a tiny number of independents and disillusioned partisans, the kinds of voters who used to be “Reagan Democrats,” but who now might become “Biden Republicans.” And they may well be spooked by the prospect of “liberal judges,” a phrase designed to evoke lawlessness, degeneracy, and disorder.
The Republican Party knows how to use polarizing rhetoric to split people along tribal lines. Donald Trump spent most of the 2018 midterm campaign talking up the “caravan,” the Central American refugees who were marching toward the U.S. border seeking asylum. Their numbers were small to begin with, and they dwindled further as they neared the border. Nonetheless, they made a useful talking point for Republicans, who wanted to remind their base on which side of the ideological divide they belonged. When Trump sent the U.S. military to the border, the subsequent outrage was justified, but it was also a trap: It drew attention away from real-life issues and encouraged voters to think they had to make a false choice between the caravan, crime, and illegal immigration on the one hand, and tradition, safety, and law and order on the other.
In a few key states, that gimmick worked. “The caravan helped him,” former Senator Claire McCaskill of Missouri bluntly said after she lost to Josh Hawley, a Republican.
Inciting a culture war didn’t work everywhere. And in places where it didn’t—in all those suburban House seats won by centrist Democrats, for example—that was often not because candidates loudly denounced the president’s use of troops at the border, but because they changed the subject. When undecided voters were thinking about jobs and health care, they were prepared to break their habits and vote for Democrats.
Democratic politicians and activists, and even ordinary voters who use social media, should concentrate as much as they can on the tangible issues that people grapple with every day — why their children aren’t in school, why their business has shut down, why their health-care plan is insufficient, why 200,000 people have died — and why the choice of president affects those issues so profoundly.

It's best for Biden to not bring up the Supreme Court, so that Catholics will make their decision based on things other than Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973), a landmark decision of the U.S. Supreme Court in which the Court ruled that the Constitution of the United States protects a pregnant woman's liberty to choose to have an abortion without excessive government restriction.
Trump promised to overturn Roe v. Wade.

So the next pressing issue must be: when will the new Justice be seated? For Constitutionalists, it must be before the Election.
Democraps have already announced and explained that after America Votes for Trump, they will utilize several strategies to steal the Election away from America.
This would get several legal cases taken to the Supreme Court. With 8 Justices, any Nancy-boy Justices could cave in and produce a Tie.
America needs a 9th Justice before the Election.

Barbara Lagoa auditioned for the Supreme Court by flouting judicial ethics and taking a radical stance against voting rights.
President Donald Trump has made it clear that he believes virtually any measure that expands voting access is invalid and rigged. And whomever he picks to fill Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s seat on the Supreme Court will need to share that view. Shortly after he learned of Ginsburg’s death, Trump told a crowd in North Carolina that he is “counting on the federal court system” to limit how many votes get counted. Perhaps that’s why he is reportedly considering Judge Barbara Lagoa for the seat. Lagoa is not just conservative — she’s also a partisan who flouted judicial ethics to disenfranchise hundreds of thousands of people in Florida, potentially throwing the state to Trump.
There is a word for what Lagoa did throughout the Amendment 4 litigation in Florida: auditioning. Lagoa proved to Trump that she would even defy judicial ethics to come through for him on a case that could swing the election. Nobody should’ve been surprised when she appeared on the president’s latest Supreme Court shortlist.

Are Judges Political?: An Empirical Analysis of the Federal Judiciary
www.amazon.com/Are-Judges-Political-Empirical-Judiciary/dp/0815782349/
It might be surprising to find that in some controversial areas, the political affiliation of the appointing president is not correlated with judicial votes. This is the basic finding for criminal appeals, takings of property rights, punitive damages, standing to sue, and Commerce Clause challenges to national legislation. But it should not be terribly shocking to see that, in the areas of abortion and capital punishment, party matters. In these areas, judges vote their convictions, and they are unaffected by the views of the other judges on the panel.

Why does Trump need to replace Ginsberg immediately? With less than six weeks to go before Election Day, and with over 250 election lawsuits filed across 45 states, the litigation strategy of the Trump campaign has become clear: create enough chaos in the system and legal and political uncertainty in the results that the Supreme Court can throw the election to Trump if the outcome is at all close or in doubt. Remember the 2000 election decided by the Supreme Court? America is going there again, but this time it will be cases from 45 states, not just Florida. Trump needs at least another Supreme Court justice to win this election, since Chief Justice John Roberts might not automatically side with Trump. Trump's preemptive arson attack on the vote count in 45 states is a five-alarm fire for democracy. Trump doesn't want Justice Roberts to extinguish the conflagration Trump ignited. Trump needs an extra Justice he can depend on to pour more gasoline on the flames.

Trump says Supreme Court will need 9th justice to decide election outcome
Trump has already planned on taking the election to a GOP controlled Court because he is crooked:
President Donald Trump on Wednesday suggested the Supreme Court will have to make a ruling on the Nov. 3 presidential election, so a new justice for the high court should be confirmed before Election Day.
“I think it’s better if you go before the election, because I think this scam that the Democrats are pulling — it’s a scam — the scam will be before the United States Supreme Court,” Trump told reporters at the White House, in an apparent reference to efforts to increase mail-in voting during the coronavirus pandemic.
“I think having a 4-4 situation is not a good situation, if you get that. I don’t know that you’d get that. I think it should be 8-0 or 9-0, but just in case it would be more political than it should be, I think it’s very important to have a ninth justice.”
The president has frequently made unsubstantiated claims about fraud with mail-in ballots, and experts have been pushing back.
“I want people to know many of us, and I’m one of them, have looked into vote fraud for decades, and there are certainly isolated examples, but it’s just not there. This is made up. It is a fiction,” said Larry Sabato, director of the University of Virginia’s Center for Politics. It is fact, not fiction, Trump is a crook.

Quote:Have you ever played cards? When there are four or six players and one is caught cheating, the cheater is out of the game without any violence. But when it is a two player game, and the cheater fights to keep his winnings, there will be blood spilled. The Presidential race is a two player game and Trump has cheated by declaring that he can't lose. He intends to keep everything he stole while playing cards, including all of his unpaid income taxes over the last four years. It could be millions that Trump owes the IRS. It could be billions. But he definitely stole something because he refused, after the election, to keep his promises to publicize his income tax returns. The very best way for Trump to hold on to what he stole is to control the Supreme Court, which has recently allowed him to delay publicizing his income tax returns. With Ginsberg replaced, maybe the Supreme Court will allow Trump to permanently keep his taxes a secret.

The president introduced his Supreme Court pick — but stayed mum about the real reason he needs her.
The reason the plan to fill Ginsburg’s seat was announced the same night as her death was never a mystery:
Trump needs her to weigh in on any election-related controversy on his behalf. As he put it to reporters on Monday: “We need nine justices,” he said. “You need that. With the unsolicited millions of ballots that they’re sending.” He explained that because of his (farcical, proofless) claim that mail-in ballots will be a source of rampant fraud, this ninth justice must be seated before an election challenge is mounted. That pronouncement came just prior to his claim that he could not commit to a peaceful transfer of power should he lose the election.
Again: The reason a ninth justice is needed to be seated in advance of the election in which voting is already taking place is to decide whatever lawsuit is coming in his favor. Perhaps unsurprisingly, then, on Saturday Trump did not overtly ask Barrett to rule in his favor next month while detailing her biography on the White House lawn.

Atwood herself has previously referred to the practices of a charismatic Catholic group motivating her to write The Handmaid's Tale, set in the fictional Gilead, where women's bodies are governed and treated as the property of the state under a theocratic regime.
"I delayed writing it for about three years after I got the idea because I felt it was too crazy," Atwood told The New York Times Book Review in 1986.
'Then two things happened. I started noticing that a lot of the things I thought I was more or less making up were now happening, and indeed more of them have happened since the publication of the book."

For the trumptards: Atwood is the woman who wrote "The Handmaid's Tale."

After Dems Fake Claiming the last 6 months that all Senate business can be conducted in Virtual Session, now suddenly with a SCOTUS appointment they Fake Claim that an Advise and Consent Hearing cannot be done in Virtual Session.
Since some of them saw the debate, they claim that they could have gotten the virus from Trump through the TV. So they must delay Senate Confirmation until after they steal the Election.

Barrett Belongs to a Legitimate Hate Group
https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/group/alliance
-defending-freedom
Founded by some 30 leaders of the Christian Right, the Alliance Defending Freedom is a legal advocacy and training group that has:
Supported the recriminalization of sexual acts between consenting LGBTQ adults in the U.S. and criminalization abroad
Defended state-sanctioned sterilization of trans people abroad
Contended that LGBTQ people are more likely to engage in pedophilia
Claimed that a “homosexual agenda” will destroy Christianity and society
ADF also works to develop “religious liberty” legislation and case law that will allow the denial of goods and services to LGBTQ people on the basis of religion. Despite its regular defamation of LGBTQ people, the group has managed to win special advisory status at the United Nations, in the European Union, and with the Organization of American States. Since the election of President Trump, ADF has become one of the most influential groups informing the administration’s attack on LGBTQ rights

How we define the truth matters, especially for someone serving on the supreme court.
Barrett’s anti-abortion views have come to bear in public stances. In 2015, she signed a letter to Catholic bishops affirming the value of “life from conception” alongside prominent anti-choice figures such as Marjorie Dannenfeiser, president of anti-choice fundraising organization the Susan B Anthony List. As a law professor at Notre Dame, Barrett was a member of the anti-abortion group University Faculty for Life, and in 2006, she signed a paid ad in a South Bend newspaper that called for “an end to the barbaric legacy of Roe v Wade". In 2013, she delivered two talks to anti-abortion student groups at Notre Dame. Barrett has also been critical of the Affordable Care Act guarantee that requires employers to provide birth control to their employees.
Like the late Justice Scalia, for whom she clerked, Barrett is a self-described textualist and originalist; she interprets the US constitution based on its plain language and an attempted understanding of the intent and mindset of the original drafters. Barrett has also written that, in her view, it is appropriate and legitimate for judges to overturn precedents when they conflict with their personal interpretation of the constitution.
I have a problem when evidence exists, in words and actions, that her faith paired with her legal theory might compel her to make decisions that would negatively impact the lives, agency and wellbeing of generations of Americans.

Charles Koch’s Big Bet on Barrett
For almost 50 years, the multibillionaire has been pushing for a court unfriendly to regulation of the market. He may be on the brink of victory.
Charles Koch has activated his political network to support Judge Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination, and to tip the scales on her nomination battle in the U.S. Senate. While much of the commentary about Judge Barrett’s nomination has focused on the real prospect that Roe v. Wade may be undermined or overturned, Mr. Koch has other concerns. Judge Barrett’s nomination is the latest battleground in his decades-long war to reshape American society in a way that ensures that corporations can operate with untrammeled freedom. It may be a pivotal one.
Since the early 1970s, Mr. Koch has sought to dismantle most federal regulatory institutions, and the federal courts have been central to that battle. In 1974, Mr. Koch gave a blistering speech to a libertarian think tank, called the Institute for Humane Studies, in which he outlined his vision of the American regulatory state, and the strategy he would employ over the ensuing decades to realize that vision. On the list of government interventions he condemned were “confiscatory taxation, wage and price controls, commodity allocations programs, trade barriers, restrictions on foreign investments, so-called equal opportunity requirements, safety and health regulations, land use controls, licensing laws, outright government ownership of businesses and industries.” As if that list were not exhaustive enough, he added “… and many more interventions.” In short, Charles Koch believes that an unregulated free market is the only sustainable structure for human society.
The Koch network apparently has faith that Judge Barrett will rule in concert with these beliefs.

Amy Coney Barrett's Supreme Court hearing is a formality, but Democrats have one last card. Here is how to play that card:
Every day in 2016, Trump seemed to do something crazier and more extreme than the last. Instead of being a blessing, it ended up luring us into a game of self-defeating political whack-a-mole, pushing dozens of different messages against Trump that never really had a chance to take hold with the public. On the other side, Republicans were able to prosecute a single message that involved Hillary Clinton's emails. And we all know which one proved more effective.
We need to apply the lessons from 2016 to this fight and hit Senate Republicans where it hurts — over and over again. That means pushing a single, clear message that anyone who votes to confirm Barrett is really voting to take away millions of Americans' health care in the middle of a pandemic.
If we make it that simple, we can make it really difficult for Trump and Mitch McConnell.

Despite her efforts to tell the committee as little as possible about her beliefs, Barrett revealed an enormous amount about her judicial philosophy. In her opening statement on Monday, she told the committee that “courts are not designed to solve every problem or right every wrong in our public life.”
After some close questioning it became evident that meant the real-world consequences of the decisions she will make should not be relevant to her, the Senate, or the general public. If Barrett's decision means 20 million Americans lose their health coverage and 100 million people lose their protections for preexisting conditions, Barrett does not care because she has higher and very abstract values she will be upholding once on the Supreme Court. She figuratively told the Democrats that it was too goddamn bad if they don't like it because she is gonna do it whether they like it or not.

Kamala Harris cited, like many of the Democratic senators before her, the academic writing in which Supreme Court nominee Judge Amy Coney Barrett criticized the legal opinion of Justice John Roberts upholding the Affordable Care Act, as happening just months before President Trump initially nominated her for US Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit in 2017.
Appearing in the confirmation virtually, Harris asked, “My question is how many months after you published that article did President Trump nominate you to be a judge on the Court of Appeals?”
Barrett, without notes, said she did not remember that timing of her article—and Harris followed up that it was published in January 2017—and Trump nominated Barrett in May 2017.
“In other words, the Affordable Care Act and all its protections hinge on this seat and the outcome of this hearing. And I believe it's very important the American people understand the issues at stake, and what's at play,” Harris said.
The California senator then asked Barrett if she – before her current nomination—knew of Trump’s vows to choose a SCOTUS nominee that would strike down the ACA.

I make $4,500 last an entire year, with ease, without wanting for anything.
That says nothing of what my income is now, or has been in the past.
I've also have zero debt to anybody for over 15 years and never worry about where my next meal is coming from or how to pay the bills.
Definition of poor:
lacking sufficient money to live at a standard considered comfortable or normal in a society.
I'm quite comfortable. I'm not a wasteful consumer. Anything that I don't have is for a lack of desire to have meaningless material possessions. I laugh when my brother goes on a family cruise vacation to Disney once a year and they spend more than I need to live... comfortably.
Most Americans spend more on interest in a year than I do for everything I need to live.
I get to do what I want to, when I want to, because I haven't enslaved myself with debt and I am the sole owner of everything I have.

It turns out that Republican appointees to the Supreme Court have, with remarkable consistency, delivered rulings that advantage the big corporate and special interests that are, in turn, the political lifeblood of the Republican Party. Several of these decisions have been particularly flagrant and notorious: Citizens United v. FEC, Shelby County v. Holder, and Janus v. AFCME. But there are many. Under Chief Justice Roberts’ tenure through the end of October Term 2017-2018, Republican appointees have delivered partisan rulings not three or four times, not even a dozen or two dozen times, but 73 times. Seventy-three decisions favored Republican interests, with no Democratic appointee joining the majority. On the way to this judicial romp, the “Roberts Five” were stunningly cavalier with any doctrine, precedent, or congressional finding that got in their way.

She wants to outlaw abortion, make women slaves, take away healthcare, hand everything to large corporations, and destroy all life on Earth.
Just like Trump.

And I'm not surprised when squirrels are more successful than Trump lovers because squirrels either know what they are doing or they end up dead in their first year, while Trump lovers linger on and on, year after year, struggling to get by, never understanding that it is not the fault of Democrats that Republicans are no more capable of looking after themselves than a three year old squirrel.

Anybody I know who has high paying jobs is in debt up to their eyeballs.
They always have to have the newest Chinese made shit and drive around cars that lose 50% of their value in less than 2 years. And then they buy another one.
My luxury is that I don't ever have to do as I'm told.

Shell Oil has a case before the Supreme Court that could undermine all climate litigation; Barrett has direct ties to Shell.
Amy Barrett claimed yesterday that she doesn't have firm views on climate change - but her dad was a longtime Shell Oil lawyer, and Shell now has a major case before the Supreme Court that Barrett may be serving on.

Senator Whitehouse calls out the Republicans and the Kochs during the SCOTUS hearings. Real smackdown that got nationwide ears.
Follow the money. A must-watch.

Quote:On the second day of confirmation hearings for Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett, one senator spent his time trying to zoom out to the bigger picture rather than questioning the judge. As he has done before, Democratic Rhode Island Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse tried to explain his concerns about how dark money, the Federalist Society, and the Judicial Crisis Network have been fueling the conservative campaign to seat Supreme Court justices.

The words sincerely and Ted Cruz have never been used in the same sentence before but Sen. Ted Cruz seemed sincerely rattled by Whitehouse’s exposé of how dark money is fueling Republican priorities and producing anti-democratic legal outcomes, and Sen. Lindsey Graham looked stricken at times while Whitehouse laid out how organizations like the Bradley Foundation and Donors Trust funnel money to Republican priorities without revealing the donors.
The trouble with explaining a complicated network of influence is that it starts to sound, well, conspiratorial. That’s because these are actual, well, conspiracies! And there are a lot of confusing moving parts!
Cruz and Graham did not look happy with Whitehouse. Republican senators strive to keep these hearings high-minded and abstract; see Republicans Mike Lee and Ben Sasse’s civics lessons about how the Constitution clearly says only Republicans are allowed to appoint Supreme Court justices. Whitehouse didn’t even bother to play their game. He just showed us who’s funding it.
it’s all too easy for Republicans to simply dismiss Whitehouse as a conspiracy theorist. Republicans do have a dark-money network that they tap to fund these judicial confirmation battles. But it’s opaque and contorted—by design, because that’s how dark money works. The donors don’t want the American people to know they’re pouring tens of millions of dollars into these battles. So they (legally) launder their money through phony nonprofits. And that, at bottom, was what Whitehouse was trying to explain with his big red Sharpie.

Barrett: Only “virtuous” citizens should have the right to vote
https://thepeoplesherald.news/barrett-only-virtuous-citizens-should-ha
ve-the-right-to-vote/
While much of the coverage of the hearings have focused on the important issue of preexisting conditions and the ACA, I think that more attention needs to be focused on statements made during Sen. Duck Durbin and Sen. Amy Klobuchar’s questioning. During their questioning, they pointed out that Amy Coney Barrett wrote in a court opinion, unrelated to voting rights, that it should be easier to take away someone’s voting rights than to take away their right to own a gun. As Amy Klobuchar pointed out, she had even stated that only “virtuous” citizens should have the right to vote. Since she refused to answer Klubuchar’s question about what “virtuous” actually meant, we are forced to wonder who she might deem unworthy of voting.
Considering her extreme fundamentalist religious views that are out of step with the American populace, it is likely her definition of virtue is far different than most Americans’. In fact, in one ruling from her past, she had claimed there was no evidence that the use of the n-word “created a hostile or abusive working environment”. So it seems what most Americans would consider to be overt racism and categorically unacceptable, somehow gets by that virtue test.
Another point highlighted by Sen. Klobuchar was the well-understood role of Congress in setting standards to ensure voting rights across the nation, which Barrett seems to reject, instead favoring unmitigated “states rights” in deciding who should and shouldn’t get the right to vote. This comes just a couple years after much of the voting rights act was stripped away and amid the decades-long practice of republicans purging black voters from the rolls and closing polling places in poor areas. Plain and simple, republicans have made it clear through their actions that they have no interest in letting Black Americans vote, in fact as some courts have said they have been targeting Black voters with “surgical” precision in their purges. This context makes it very clear that Amy Coney Barrett has no problem letting states keep Black people from voting. In my view when she says “virtuous” citizens should be the only ones voting, she may as well be saying “white”.

She is evil.

Quote:An anonymous donor who will profit by killing Obamacare has paid to place Judge Amy Coney Barrett on the Supreme Court because Barrett agreed to kill Obamacare in exchange for a lifetime job. That's at least $258,900 per year plus under the table bribes to make decisions go the way Mister Anonymous Money wants.

A single anonymous donor gave the Judicial Crisis Network (JCN) $17 million to fight Merrick Garland and support Neil Gorsuch. We still don’t know who this person was. But they played an incredibly important and consequential role in our democracy. Is that healthy? Should someone be allowed to spend $17 million influencing the most powerful court without even owning up to it?
And whoever that is just spent millions more for Barrett. JCN already promised to spend $2.2 million on Barrett.
Several Republican senators filed amicus briefs in NFIB v. Sebelius, the 2012 Obamacare decision, that were signed by Carrie Severino, who is the head of the Judicial Crisis Network, and the person behind Amy Coney Barrett’s selection. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/11pdf/11-393c3a2.pdf
Carrie Severino signed an amicus brief arguing for the total destruction of the ACA. Eight years later, she played a key role in the selection of Barrett to fill RBG’s seat.

Barrett Unable to Name 5 Freedoms Protected by 1st Amendment
Asked by Sen. Ben Sasse, R-Neb., to name five freedoms protected by the First Amendment, Judge Amy Coney Barrett was unable to provide all five. “Speech, religion, press, assembly,” said Barrett. “I don’t know—what am I missing?” “Redress, or protest,” said Sasse.

Amy Coney Barrett Worked on Bush v. Gore — Donald Trump says he expects the Supreme Court to decide the 2020 election, as it did in Bush v. Gore. If Amy Coney Barrett is confirmed, the court will have three justices who worked directly on the case that undemocratically determined the 2000 election.
