, according to multiple senior Republican sources with knowledge of the process.
In conversations with some senior Republican allies on the Hill, the White House is indicating that Barrett is the intended nominee, multiple sources said. All sources cautioned that until it is announced by the President, there is always the possibility that Trump makes a last-minute change but the expectation is Barrett is the choice. He is scheduled to make the announcement on Saturday afternoon, Washington time.Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg died
. She is the only potential nominee known to have met with the President in person, according to two of the sources. One source said Trump was familiar with Barrett already and he met with her since she was a top contender the last time there was a Supreme Court vacancy, when the President chose JusticeBarrett was seen at her South Bend, Indiana, home on Friday. It was not clear if Barrett had been told she is the choice.
"The machinery is in motion," one of the sources said. In previous nomination announcements, the White House had multiple rollouts planned in case the President made a last-minute decision to switch to another candidate. But one source said it would be surprising if there were a change since allies are already being told.The White House declined to comment.
I’m surprised he didn’t pick Barbara Lagoa (I’m probably misspelling her name)
Again, good choice.

Very good choice

Amy Coney Barrett will replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg: John Jordan | Sky News AustraliaAmy Coney Barrett will replace late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg according to former US naval intelligence officer John Jordan who cited inside sources.\n\nUS President Donald Trump is due to announce his pick at the weekend.\n\n“She was the runner up for the seat that Kavanaugh ultimately got,” Mr Jordan said.\n\n“Rumour has it that Trump told insiders when he interviewed her and Kavanaugh that Kavanaugh was going to get this one, but he knew that when Ruth Bader Ginsburg left the court, either through death or resignation, that there was going to be such a firestorm over that because of her important and iconic status on the left that the brouhaha was going to be biblical. \n\n“He wanted to save Amy Coney Barrett just for that moment, not just because she’s a woman but because of her story.”\n\nMr Jordan said the 48-year-old has seven kids, adopted two from Haiti and has a special needs child.\n\n“She’s going to have that seat for a long time,” he said.
