BREAKING: AP sources: Senate to hold confirmation hearings for Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett starting Oct. 12. Find updates here:

6:30 p.m.

Said Manchin, “I cannot support a process that risks further division of the American people at a time when we desperately need to come together.” He said he would not vote to support Barrett or any nominee before Nov. 3. “She has a written track record of disagreeing with the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision upholding the Affordable Care Act,” Biden said in a written statement. “She critiqued Chief Justice John Roberts’ majority opinion upholding the law in 2012.”Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi are warning that a vote to confirm Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court is a vote to strike down the Affordable Care Act.

The Democratic leaders warn that with Barrett, the court will almost surely tip rightward and could strike down the law.The Senate Judiciary Committee will hold confirmation hearings for Judge Amy Coney Barrett, President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee, the week of Oct. 12. That’s according to three people familiar with the schedule.

President Donald Trump’s pick to the U.S. Supreme Court says she is “mindful” she would be taking the seat vacated by the death of departed liberal icon, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. She also lauded Ginsburg for being able to disagree with colleagues on principles but “without rancor.”Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett says her judicial philosophy is the same as that of her mentor, Justice Antonin Scalia.Barrett said Saturday as President Donald Trump nominated her to the country’s highest court that Scalia’s “judicial philosophy is mine, too.

Barrett, a judge on the Chicago-based 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals and a devout Roman Catholic, has been hailed by religious conservatives and others on the right as an ideological heir to conservative icon Antonin Scalia, the late Supreme Court justice for whom she clerked.

Kamala Harris was Fated for this

What? In an election year when voting has already started? Last time I heard, GOP Senate said this couldn't be done. I mean, McConnell et al pitched a fit against MGarland. This must be some kind of mistake, no? Otherwise it seems like GOP Senate is fixing SCOTUS, right? THEY ARE

It’s going to be so cool when they shut down planned parenthood and 95% of what they do for healthcare for women will disappear and millions will lose health insurance during a pandemic and not qualify because they have a preexisting condition.

😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

Not Monday? I'm stunned.

What a joke. If only this government worked hard enough to pass legislation regarding healthcare, education or literally anything else. All they care about is their power and corruption.

So sad to see that U.S. Supreme Court has also become partisan. I used to think U.S. was the land of true democracy.

On September 23, 2020, SCJ Ruth Bader Ginsburg's casket arrived at the U.S. Capital to lie in state. On September 26, 2020, President Donald Trump announced Amy Coney Barrett as his nominee to replace Justice Ginsburg. The proud 'values' Party of Lincoln & Ronald Regan cheered.

And yet again, SenateDems live to regret lowering the vote threshold for judicial appointments. Seems to me, that act has done much to enshrine minority rule for the next several generations. Can’t blame that bit on anyone else but is a great reason for term limits in judiciary

JusticeACBfan As per Wiki, 7 children from 8 to 19 and with one special care. How practically it is possible to do job by a SC judge with that condition !!!

alimhaider Cry more libs

Will this give her enough time to get her husband’s approval?

Seems about right the senate not helping Americans, but will help themselves. wish they would act this fast for the America people who lives they have upended with their non action to events of this virus. Tells me where there priorities are for average person.

That's *Justice* Serena Joy to you.

What ard they doing Monday?

Let’s do it !!!

Better not

Why wait so long?

Start Monday get it done

Ask her why she put her kids and family in harm's way. She doesn't take the guidelines (Virus) of the country seriously or the health of her children. When you put Trump over those things what will you care about on the court?

22 days before the election.

I had no idea that a white Catholic family, adopting two children from Haiti was a form of racism and an indication the female is a bad mother and part of a cult, until 10 min after Amy Coney Barrett was nominated and I read social media. I feel so uninformed.

LindseyGrahamSC senatemajldr why are you waiting so long? What's wrong with the week of October 5th? ConfirmAmy

Knowing Barrett is a liar since she said no nominee should be put forth near an election isn’t that disqualifying. Or is it just Republican.

Minority rule once more pushed by the GOP.

for the last 10 years the only time the Senate does something it's to screw over the majority of the American people. This is no different.

God help us

Democrat Senators should give Barrett the Merrick Garland treatment. Don't meet with, discuss, or consider the candidate. Only send Kamala Harris to the Judiciary Committee hearing and let her speak for all Democrats. Then, all 47 Dems & Inds vote 'present' on confirmation.

She seems pretty cool, I hope it goes smoothly.

I came here to see the crying liberals, are you there guys? Please comment.

Booo

They should start on Monday. Don’t give Dems a chance to turn this into another Kavanaugh circus

Hell yea. FillTheSeat2020

FILL THE SEAT. Confirm Amy Coney Barrett!! Use code “CeeJayCraig” for 10% off your shirt! ConfirmACB FillTheSeat

Has anyone checked on Hillary 😂😂 Maybe she's finally visiting Wisconsin?

Confirm Amy Coney Barrett now! 🇺🇸

Don't have time to iron out a relief bill but taking away rights? Yup, got time for that.

Sad thing is, that a lady who blazed such a trail for women will likely be replaced by a Subservient Stepford-wife who owes her very career progression in large part to the work of Justice RGB and would now gladly sign ALL women's rights away including hers as & when instructed

Omg how is this possible? Impeach!

Headline: Donald Trump and his GOP are gonna do some fash shit but legal experts say it would go against the precedent set by the Constitution. Headline 1 week later: Ahh, well never the less...

TXWXTracker Monday

Few things to do. Short term: Impeach corrupt Barr. Long term: 1. Win the Senate & Presidency. 2. Prosecute Trump, Jr., Eric, Barr, Matt, Devin, Mitch. 3. Expand SC. 4. Add 4 more Justices. 5. Make Term limit for SC Justices. 6. Add Judges. CNN/MSNBC/SenateDems/HouseDemocrats

Stunning and Brave. A historic moment in American History.
