more shit comes out.

She couldn't even say the obvious: that she must recuse herself on any case related to Trump's election, having been given the job of a lifetime by him. Whether her evasiveness shows just very poor judgment or active intent to deceive the public, either way it disqualifies her.

Nope. She's getting confirmed, and she will sit on the bench with the rest of them.

Rushing forward with confirmation is unwise and not right and Democrats will be on record and their just efforts may be brought to bare against the confirmation.

Does this 'nominee' have any scruples about any conflicts of interest? Is her only mission to strike what remains of ACA, weaken Roe, and do Trump's/GOP's bidding - was that her bargain?

It’s funny how feminism only works for those women who all think alike.
