Amy Coney Barrett won't say if climate change is human caused, stating she's not 'competent to opine' on the matter

Barrett on Tuesday also echoed a talking point from Republican politicians who've expressed skepticism on climate science. In response to a question from GOP Sen. John Kennedy on climate change, Barrett said, "You know, I'm certainly not a scientist."

Ann Carlson, a faculty director of the Emmett Institute on Climate Change and the Environment at UCLA School of Law, told the New York Times she found Barrett's response "disturbing."

She gave a great answer, and the only answer that is relevant to the hearing

That's a testament to her integrity IMHO.

A part professors and researchers in gender or race studies, few real scientists would affirm it AmyComeyBarrett

Aparently she is not competent for anything, she repeat it multiple times, she doesn't know she is not an expert.. then why are you there, to roll dices?

The Jackass Democrats who are asking her these ridiculous questions can’t comprehend admitting you don’t know enough about a topic to opine on it, They usually just make asses of themselves and pretend like they know it all while actually knowing nothing

Good for her. Almost none of us is competent to opine, but that doesn't stop us.

Another stupid question from Dems.😂😂😂. Has gone past ridiculous.

See the dumb s*** that happens when you tell everyone you have to respect their beliefs, respect facts, beliefs are irrelevant.

True that you may want to get a scientist's researched opinion, which NASA has done.

Irresponsible journalism at its finest here.

She's more honest than 90% of leftists—who are all convinced they are experts because they read a twitter thread.

Interesting that she can profess and opine on women’s rights, voting and affordable health 🧐

If she's not even qualified to grasp that and how climate change is caused anthropogetically, how is she qualified for the position republicans want to put her in?!

Then she crammed for every test too. Sad she is so one dimensional.

Could you pls write an article as soon as she has given any answer?! Thx

Hey, I have an idea. Let’s leave that up to the scientists and climatologists!

And where will she look for the answer if she needs it? Since science has already concluded that it is human caused she apparently does not view science as the source of an answer, so what is?

This is all you can come up with? 😂 . Give it a rest, she’s absolutely killing it.

She's a judge not a scientist.... Wtf were you expecting?

Refreshing that someone says they aren’t qualified to give an opinion.

Honesty is best policy

Barrett says George Floyd's death was 'personal,' but she can't make broad statement about racismBarrett says George Floyd's death was 'personal,' but she can't make broad statement about racism Lmfaoooo LOL, this same judge ruled that a black man was not harassed at his workplace when his coworkers screamed at him and called him the n-word 8 hours a day and 5 days a week. Just because she has acquired some black children doesn't mean she gives a crap about black people. Well at least she didn't say: ' If I had a son, he'd be just like Trayvon ' 😏
