The career record of the federal appellate judge demonstrates conservative credentials on contentious issues like gun control, immigration and access to medical care. A devout Catholic, she is lauded by anti-abortionists for her pro-life convictions."The dogma lives loudly within you," is a slogan famously associated with Ms Barrett.
It catapulted Ms Barrett to wider national prominence and stirred religious conservatives who viewed the episode as an example of anti-religion bias.Ms Barrett will have a lifetime's appointment to a right-wing bench with which to wield influence over generations who don't necessarily share her politics or life choices.
Vice-presidential candidate Kamala Harris was among those who claimed that Amy Coney Barrett's presence on the Supreme Court would threaten a woman's right to abortion in the US, tweeting:"They intend to destroy the affordable care act and overturn Roe . This selection would move the court further right for a generation and harm millions of Americans. I strongly oppose Judge Barrett's nomination.
Opinion polls indicate that most members of the public believe a replacement Supreme Court justice should wait until after the election.A confirmation hearing is due to start on 12 October before the Senate Judiciary Committee and Republicans believe they have the numbers in the bag to wave her through in a vote on the Senate floor before election day on 3 November.
Therein lies a concern for Donald Trump's opponents. They sense he is scripting a stitch-up around his Supreme Court nominee.
jamesmatthewsky OR US President just following due Constitutional process OR woke, out of touch sky journalist giving his opinion💤💤
Another pro left headline again . Great appointment, the last thing america needs right now is a democrat with crazy left views. Trump is the best person for America
Sky really is a shit show.
Autocratic assault on democracy - Do you lot at Sky News can get any more pathetic than that?
Doing the job he was elected to do.
How about doing his job?
Trying to outdo Soapy Sopel in the petulance stakes?
Seriously? , Article 2, Section2 of our constitution is not a 'distraction' neither is it an 'autocratic assault'. By the way we are a CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC
Why don't you try Constitutional Duty as President of the Republic was carried out smartly......We are a Republic over here in this EX-British Colony. Look up 1776 and War of 1812. Our Government is different and Unique. Take that you Limeys!
Why does bLM Glorify and support violent criminals,Child Rapists and ghetto Gang Bangers when they are supposed to protest THE COUNTLESS CHILDREN AND INFANTS THEY SLAUGHTER IN THE STREET EVERYDAY!, Shooting OVER 30+ people EVERY WEEKEND,Crack wars,drive by's . DISGUSTING DISGRACE
ScumMedia
Awwwww poor lefty scum Sky News. Are you getting angry because things aren’t going your way in another county?
Neither. It's the Constitutional obligation.

Under the US Constitution (Article11) the President has plenary power to nominate a Supreme Court judge, and the Senate then considers the nomination. Constitutionally pretty straighforward unless you're SkyNews when it becomes potentially autocratic and anti democratic.

There is literally nothing anti-constitutional, illegal, or illicit in this nomination. The Dems are quivering with rage because (a) a woman was appointed that (b) among other things, is pro life and is (c) not a racist. WalkAwayFromDemocrats
It’s constitutional, so far from either
Could always be a good old fashioned attempt to ensure pragmatic justice for all should the gullible vote for the desperate lawless Left.
ScumMedia I believe a SCOTUS seat has come up in election year 29 times and a president has NEVER not nominated a replacement...including Obama Did you ever the same question of the other 29 times?
Wow! So you’re accusing a democratically elected POTUS of doing his job, amazing👏🏼 You do know that you’re supposed to be an actual news channel, right?
CarolinaFaith2 I call it a slap on you Fake News’s face. When SkyNews become such an ass h0le
Wow Sky news must be liberal fake news too
A brilliant woman with minority children was just nominated to SCOTUS and she may defend the unborn. Too scary for the closed liberal mind.
Democracy in Western worlds is brain death !
Funny you're not calling out boris' covid legislation for that
Neither! Fulfilling his constitutional duty as President....
First, the U.S. is not a Democracy it’s a Constitutional Republic, it’s helpful to understand the difference. Second, it doesn’t matter if “generations don’t share her views”. The Supreme Court exists to interpret an existing Constitution, not write a new one.
Both, clearly. NoQ VoteBlue VoteEarly VoteByMail TermLimits VoteBidenHarris FreedomFromReligion
Fixed it for ya
Sky's leftie news staff being petulant again. 😭😂
What the hell are you even talking about?
It's actually how our government works. But thanksfor playing.
Both.
Neither🤡
Hey Sky news. America isn't a democracy. Why do you struggle with this so much?
Both 🤨
Neither, you helmet heroes.
The latter.
How about doing his job?
A smidgen of both, with a whole lot of special interests and CYA.

False choice... It's neither.... What it actually is, is obvious. Trump had a seat on SCOTUS open and a GOP Senate that will fill it. It's really that simple.
Or perhaps he is doing exactly what any other president would have done in that situation and, you know, made a decision. 🤷🏾♂️
Constitutional move, next
