Two of the Deep State’s Biggest Players Are Now Gushing Over Amy

/1 Comment/in , , /by

It’s getting much harder for the so-called conservative Supreme Court (cough, cough) to keep up appearances—and thanks to Norm Eisen, that flimsy mask just slipped again. This time, it’s with Amy Coney Barrett.

Recently, we dropped not one but two bombshell reports exposing Norm Eisen’s very cozy—and wildly unprofessional—relationship with Chief Justice John Roberts. We’re talking about a Supreme Court Chief Justice vacationing and collaborating on political efforts with the man who’s been the public face of Deep State lawfare against Trump for nearly a decade.

Revolver:

Well, we finally know why Justice Roberts acts the way he does. Turns out, he’s BFFs with one of the biggest Deep State operatives on the planet—a man literally known for whipping up color revolutions against the American people. That man is Norm Eisen. One of the slipperiest swamp rats in DC And now we know he and Roberts are two peas in a very rotten pod.

We covered the bombshell story when it hit.

Revolver:

After you finish this blog, you’ll be asking the million-dollar question: Why is Chief Justice John Roberts hanging out with the Deep State’s #1 color revolution architect?

Turns out the left’s favorite “Republican” has some very interesting buddies.

According to Norm Eisen—the man who practically wrote the Deep State’s playbook on color revolutions, all things anti-Trump, and lawfare in the US—he and Chief Justice John Roberts are not only good pals, but they even spent a week together in the Czech Republic. According to Norm, the two BFFs were there working on “American rule of law” issues.

Hmm…

Norm was so proud of this that he actually bragged about the trip and made it very clear that Roberts isn’t corrupt—he’s just a “close friend” who happened to fly overseas and stay at Eisen’s posh 150-room palace to collaborate on transatlantic political projects.

Out of the Gates, Calls for Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s Impeachment Emerge

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Less than 24 hours after she was confirmed to the U.S. Supreme Court, Justice Amy Coney Barrett is already being asked to recuse herself from a case and liberals are calling for her impeachment.

Barrett will begin hearing oral arguments next week after being sworn in at a private ceremony at the Supreme Court Tuesday. But her confirmation late Monday – with not a single Democrat vote – set off apoplectic reactions from the left and calls for packing the high court in revenge. Critics of President Donald Trump have already begun the impeachment narrative against his Supreme Court pick should she not recuse herself from a Pennsylvania election case.

The Luzerne County Board of Elections filed a recusal motion Tuesday over a Pennsylvania case involving an extension for mail-in ballots.

“The nomination and confirmation of a Supreme Court justice this close to a presidential election is unprecedented,” they wrote. “As concerning as that is, what is even more troubling is the language President Trump has used in consideration of this nomination, linking it directly to the electoral season at hand, with implications for his own re-election.”

Pennsylvania Republicans have asked the Supreme Court to weigh in on election laws in the swing state, which currently allow mail-in ballots to still be counted in the final tallies up to three days after Election Day. On Friday, Republicans requested the high court rule on a Pennsylvania Supreme Court deadlocked case that mail-in ballots be accepted as long as they arrive by Nov. 6 and were not postmarked after Election Day.

Amy Coney Barrett Confirmed to Supreme Court; Biden Slams ‘Rushed and Unprecedented’ Confirmation

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Fox News. Members of the progressive “Squad” of House Democrats didn’t skip a beat on Monday, calling for court-packing almost immediately after Judge Amy Coney Barrett’s confirmation to the Supreme Court.

Just before the Senate’s vote on Monday, Biden floated the possibility that he could move justices to other courts.

“There is some literature among constitutional scholars about the possibility of going from one court to another court, not just always staying the whole time in the Supreme Court but I have made no judgement,” Biden said at a campaign stop in Chester, Pa.

He went on to say that “there are just a group of serious constitutional scholars, have a number of ideas how we should proceed from this point on.” (Read more from “Amy Coney Barrett Confirmed to Supreme Court” HERE)

Biden Slams ‘Rushed and Unprecedented’ Amy Coney Barrett Confirmation

By New York Post. Vice President Joe Biden on Monday night slammed the “rushed and unprecedented” confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett.

Biden issued the condemnation in a lengthy statement release shortly after Barrett was officially sworn in to the nation’s highest court.

“The rushed and unprecedented confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett as Associate Justice to the Supreme Court, in the middle of an ongoing election, should be a stark reminder to every American that your vote matters,” the Democratic presidential candidate said.

Senate Votes To Advance Barrett Nomination To Supreme Court; Lisa Murkowski Votes Against Advancing Nomination

/1 Comment/in , /by

By Washington Examiner. The Senate voted Sunday to advance the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett, setting up a final confirmation vote Monday.

Senate Republicans provided the 51 vote minimum to prevent a Democratic filibuster, rejecting arguments from Democrats that the vacant Supreme Court seat should not be filled until the next president is sworn into office. . .

Two Republicans, Sens. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Susan Collins of Maine, voted against advancing the nomination, citing the proximity of the election and the decision by Republicans in 2016 to ignore then-President Barack Obama’s high court pick, Merrick Garland.

Senate Votes To Limit Debate on Barrett Supreme Court Nomination

By Fox News. The Senate voted 51-48 Sunday afternoon to limit debate on the Supreme Court nomination of Judge Amy Coney Barrett, setting up a vote on her confirmation for Monday evening.

Sunday’s vote limited debate over President Trump’s court appointee to 30 hours, meaning the full Senate will be able to hold a confirmation vote Monday beginning at approximately 7:26 p.m. ET.

“Judge Amy Coney Barrett of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit is a stellar nominee in every single respect,” Senate Majority Leader McConnell said on the Senate floor following the vote. “Her intellectual brilliance is unquestioned. Her command of the law is remarkable. Her integrity is above reproach.”

Two Republicans voted against ending debate, Sens. Susan Collins, R-Maine., and Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska. Murkowski has, however, indicated that she will vote to confirm Barrett.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., railed against his Republicans for swiftly moving to fill a court vacancy in the weeks before a presidential election, after refusing to do the same when there was a vacancy early in the final year of President Barack Obama’s presidency.

Senate Democrats Plan to Boycott Amy Coney Barrett Committee Vote

/0 Comments/in , /by

Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee will reportedly boycott Thursday’s committee vote on Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett.

Democrats will fill their seats in the committee with life-sized posters of people who could be hurt if the Affordable Care Act were to be repealed, according to HuffPost. Democrats have been saying if Barrett is confirmed, she will be the one to give the deciding vote on repealing the Affordable Care Act. . .

In early October, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said Democrats will not “supply quorum” for votes in the Senate as a way to try and block the confirmation of Barrett before the election.

A quorum is the minimum number of members present either in a committee or the entire Senate to hold votes, Fox News reported. The quorum in the Senate is 51 members. There are 22 members on the Senate Judiciary Committee, which is in charge of the confirmation process, and nine members are required for a quorum in the committee, including at least two from the minority party, according to Fox News.

Merriam-Webster Lists ‘Sexual Preference’ as ‘Offensive’ after Amy Coney Barrett Spat

/0 Comments/in , /by

Merriam-Webster dictionary has changed “sexual preference” to be an “offensive” term — after Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett was accused of being “anti-LGBTQ” for saying it.

Barrett was attacked Tuesday by Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii), who claimed the respected judge deliberately used the term during her confirmation hearing. . .

By that night, under its general listing for “preference,” Merriam-Webster had added an “offensive” warning before the part listing “sexual preference.”

“The term preference as used to refer to sexual orientation is widely considered offensive in its implied suggestion that a person can choose who they are sexually or romantically attracted to,” the dictionary added in extra guidance on usage.

The dictionary confirmed the change was made because of the Senate hearing spat. (Read more from “Merriam-Webster Lists ‘Sexual Preference’ as ‘Offensive’ after Amy Coney Barrett Spat” HERE)

Another Key Case Amy Coney Barrett Could Decide on If Confirmed to the Supreme Court

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Senate Democrats on the Judiciary Committee spoke endlessly about Obamacare. I know some were asking, ‘is this a Supreme Court nomination hearing or one on Obamacare?’ It was both. The Affordable Care Act will come before the Court again on November 10. By all accounts, the vote count hasn’t changed. The Senate GOP has the votes to confirm her, so Judge Amy Coney Barrett, who President Trump nominated to fill the vacancy left by the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, will be a deciding vote. Yet, there’s another case where soon-to-be-Justice Amy Coney Barrett will weigh in on the 2020 census. The Supreme Court just announced that they will hear arguments concerning whether illegal aliens can be excluded from the count (via NBC News):

The U.S. Supreme Court agreed Friday to consider whether the Trump administration can leave undocumented immigrants out of the count of total population in the census.

In a brief order, the court set the case for argument on Nov. 30. If she’s confirmed by then, Judge Amy Coney Barrett could participate in the case.

A census is required every ten years by the Constitution, and the results determine how many members of Congress each state gets in the US House of Representatives. The data is also used to calculate a local government’s share of $1.5 trillion in funds under many federal programs

Senator Actually Goes There: Asks Barrett If She Ever Sexually Assaulted Anyone (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hawaii Democratic Sen. Mazie Hirono grilled Supreme Court nominee Judge Amy Coney Barrett on Tuesday about whether she had ever sexually assaulted someone. . .

Hirono said she asks every nominee to a federal appointment the same thing.

“Since you became a legal adult, have you ever made unwanted requests for sexual favors or committed any verbal or physical harassment or assault of a sexual nature?” . . .

Second question: “Have you ever faced discipline or entered into a settlement” on those issues?

Barrett: “No” and “No.” (Read more from “Senator Actually Goes There: Asks Barrett If She Ever Sexually Assaulted Anyone (VIDEO)” HERE)

Poll: Support for Barrett Confirmation Turns Into Landslide

/0 Comments/in , /by

As the Senate Judiciary Committee considers Judge Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination to replace the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court, new Morning Consult/Politico polling shows support for her confirmation remains sturdy.

Forty-eight percent of registered voters in the Oct. 9-11 survey said the Senate should vote to confirm Barrett as a Supreme Court justice, up 2 percentage points from 46 percent in a poll one week ago, though inside the surveys’ 2-point margins of error. Thirty-one percent of voters said the Senate should vote down Barrett’s nomination, unchanged from the previous polling.

The level of support for Barrett’s nomination, an increase of 11 points since President Donald Trump announced her nomination on Sept. 26, also compares favorably with public sentiment toward Justice Brett Kavanaugh prior to the first day of his confirmation hearings in September 2018. At that time, 37 percent of voters said the Senate should vote to confirm Kavanaugh to the court, compared with 29 percent who said it should vote to deny his nomination.

At this point in the process, a larger share of Republicans and Democrats are voicing support for Barrett’s nomination than they did for Kavanaugh’s: 77 percent of GOP voters and 27 percent of Democratic voters said Barrett should be confirmed, compared to 67 percent and 15 percent, respectively, who said the same of Kavanaugh ahead of his hearings.

WATCH: Barrett Shredded for Saying ‘Sexual Preference’ but Biden, Democrats Have Said It for Years

/0 Comments/in , /by

Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett came under fire from Sen. Mazie Hirono (D., Hawaii) Tuesday for using the term “sexual preference,” but presidential candidate Joe Biden, late Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and other prominent liberals have said it during their careers.

“I’m going to need you to help this time rebuild the backbone of this country, the middle class, but this time bring everybody along regardless of color, sexual preference, their backgrounds,” Biden said during a virtual roundtable on May 7.

Biden also used the term in 2010 when discussing the Senate repeal of the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy in the military and during his failed 2008 presidential campaign.

“We will not be squandering the abilities of combat soldiers, as well as interpreters who happen to have a different sexual preference, who happen to be gay or happen to be lesbian,” Biden said, according to a Defense Department document.

Ginsburg, the liberal favorite whose seat Barrett would fill if confirmed, used the term during an interview in 2017.
