Another Phony Conservative Judge Nominated to US Supreme Court.
Another Phony Conservative Judge Nominated to US Supreme Court
Conservatives are dancing with glee over Trump’s nomination of Amy Coney Barrett to the U.S. Supreme Court. However, for Chuck Baldwin conservatives are being conned once again. Barrett has stressed in the past that a judge may not let – quote - “personal preference” colour her decisions. She has included morality under – quote - “personal preferences.” In a 2016 Hesburgh Lecture at Jacksonville University she left the impression that she was more partial to Hillary Clinton than Donald Trump. Asked about the Pro-Life issue she said, “We shouldn’t be putting people on the Court who share our policy preferences.” Baldwin asks the question: “The right to life is a policy preference?”
Abortion Was Introduced by Republicans
Baldwin recalls the little-known fact that the 1973 Roe v. Wade abortion decision was made by five Republican and two Democratic appointed judges. One Republican and one Democrate opposed it. The Republican-appointed justices didn’t even need the Democrat-appointed justices to make Roe pass. To put it another way: 66% of the Democrat justices and 83% of the Republican justices voted for abortion. Baldwin also stresses that the Republicans have held a majority of the Supreme Court for 50 years, and yet Roe has never been overturned.
More of the Same?
Barrett has commented in the past that she didn’t believe that the right to abortion would change and she offered no hint of disapproval. She also said that boys using girls’ bathrooms is a “who decides” issue, and never suggested that the idea is outrageous. To her, the Law of God, the natural law, whose author is God has no role to play. She implied that litigation according to precedent, not the constitution’s words decide. For Baldwin, Barrett is – like Gorsuch and Kavanaugh - just another Big Government, Police State ideologue who will continue the assault against the constitutionally protected liberties and who will do nothing to overturn Roe.
Enabler of Coronavirus Curfew
The Constitutional attorney Robert Barnes stressed that Barrett sided with the government on almost every civil rights case, every big employer case, every criminal case, while also siding with the government on the coronavirus lockdowns, on uncompensated takings, on excusing First Amendment infringements and Fourth Amendment violations. In over 95% of her cases she justified the government. Barnes calls her an “elite back-scratching Roberts-type jurists,” and a “Big Government enabler of the tyrannical coronavirus lockdowns and shutdowns.” Barnes explained how Barrett’s history a Clerk for the late Justice Antonin Scalia is giving the false impression that she shares his staunch originalist beliefs when that is not in fact the case.
I would like to know what is your purpose here? We have absolutely no power over who is appointed. They are not voted in, except indirectly by voting in a pro-life president, which, to the best of our ability, we have done. Lets join the baying pack of jackals who are trying to tear him down, shall we?
Well, Roe vs Wade is still there because of the demokkkrats blocking of Robert Bork. With his confirmation, there would have been a majority to overturn this shameful bench legislation in 1992. And Harry Blackmun also wasn´t Nixon´s first choice. It was because of a demokkkrat controlled senate.
“Know that the Lord is God! It is he that made us.” [Ps 100:3]
If by God’s mercy I get to Heaven and also @Holy Cannoli makes it there, will @Holy Cannoli refuse to remain there because clearly he loathes me just because of the tent the LORD made for me to dwell in? And if he refuses for just this reason, isn’t his lot with those on the outside, the cowardly, the faithless, the polluted, the murderers, fornicators, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars [cf Rev 21:8]?
And what will he and the like do when God raises me up? Ask for a mountain on this God’s flat earth to cover them? Cf Time is up for the second beast with two horns like a lamb and speaking like a dragon.
@rhemes1582 and @Holy Cannoli: You remind me of those "conservative" Catholics who were praising the wonderful "conservative" bishops which JPII used to name and which, since then, have seamlessly adapted to all the popes who followed him. Do you remember how Justice Roberts was praised when he was named? I do. Therefore: It's best to keep cool and distant until facts (not nice words) prove otherwise.
Sometimes you bet on the wrong horse but Barrett's bona fides are impeccable. Besides, I trust the judgement of DJT. Let's see what happens.
I fatti parlano più delle parole.
@Holy Cannoli: Never TRUST a politician, never. Only facts, only facts. Do you remember how the "conservatives" were excited about the nomination of John G. Roberts... Then came the excitement for Kavanaugh.... Plus: Trump doesn't know Coney Barrett, she was recommended to him. She is/was also teaching at the wonderful Catholic University Notre Dame...
To repeat Holy Cannoli's words.
" For heaven’s sake my dears, she’s replacing Ginsberg "
The choice is not in a vacuum. The decision must be weighed against the alternative if the current so called Democrats were to appoint someone.
I'm a little surprised at Gloria.TV short sightedness.
She appears to be Far from perfect but for Heaven sake it could be MUCH WORSE.
I hope your not planning a news brief on why the Earth is flat next.
Or how the Earth could be more round.
In an effort to create interest in the news, I believe that sometimes GTV will use controversial material without actually agreeing with the content of that material. That may be true in today's news.

I know they are a great group of folks.
Stalwart, Catholic, Faithful etc.
The young lady that is front person for the news is, and has been a good model for young Catholic Ladies, and edifying for men that desire to see fortitude in action.
@Georgia59 I keep repeating, people reveal themselves. That people can overlook her support for current AND future Coronavirus/CoViD measures is beyond me.
Some people don't need to worry about the China virus. They have developed "goat herd immunity."
Go get a needle into you from your hero then -- the rest of us have no interest -- the history shows ACB is going to be about a Roberts or worse....your just claiming otherwise does nothing to dispute the actual evidence as to her opinions and statements -- her "crying" as to George Floyd bs was a bit over the top too -- not believable.
Joseph Sciambra on Amy Coney Barrett apologizes for use of phrase 'sexual preference':
ACB proves one thing - a pro-life Catholic can be confirmed to the SCOTUS, but if you dare to even slightly diverge from LGBT talking-points, you are in trouble - and you must apologize.
The issue of our age is not abortion - it's identity. Doesn't take as much courage to be pro-life as to question the LGBT doctrines; as a pro-lifer, you can march in parades, speak at conferences, and get book deals; I can testify - there are few opportunities in society (or the Church) on the other side of gay.
Chick Baldwin and Robert Barnes ought to know better and I believe they do but in order to seek headlines (on Lew Rockwell ) they make their injudicious comments. For heaven’s sake my dears, she’s replacing Ginsberg . How much worse could it be? These 2 are so full of BS that bulls wouldn’t even sniff.
Incidentally, there are leftist posters at Gloria.tv who have much too much time on their hands and they waste it each day making post after post after post (some lengthy) on various threads. They are to be pitied since we can be sure that their personal lives are so empty and devoid of meaningful content that they must get some kind of cheap satisfaction by seeing “their name in lights.”

Judge Barrett’s clear clarifications and her fidelity to the law follow.
President Donald Trump’s nominee to the Supreme Court, Judge Amy Coney Barrett, will tell the Senate Judiciary Committee on Oct. 12 that the Supreme Court shouldn’t try to make policy.
Her opening remarks presented her legal philosophy and will stress that she is a proponent of the late Justice Antonin Scalia’s legal theories. Barrett previously was a legal clerk for Scalia, who died in 2016.
“It was the content of Justice Scalia’s reasoning that shaped me. His judicial philosophy was straightforward: A judge must apply the law as written, not as the judge wishes it were. Sometimes that approach meant reaching results that he did not like,” Barrett writes.
“Courts are not designed to solve every problem or right every wrong in our public life. The policy decisions and value judgments of government must be made by the political branches elected by and accountable to the People. The public should not expect courts to do so, and courts should not try.
Her published opinions show who she is -- the Judge in Atlanta who was Hispanic would have been much better -- she is for forced vaccinations -- that alone is enough for me to dislike her -- she is just another Roberts or worse from the record she actually has -- who cares if she's "catholic" if she has stated and proved that has zero bearing on her decisions as a Judge -- poor choice and the Federalist Society is a curse as they want "litigation" in these areas as the make big $$$ off it -- they have a big conflict and should not be the ones suggesting Judges to Trump. Sad.
@Gloria.TV News One of your best analyses and commentaries . God bless!
Both parties herd people and the Nation in the SAME direction.
Didn’t previously know about a majority Republican bench for pro abortion decisions! Wow!
And now we know why this is the case, both parties are the slaves of the Beast cf The Apocalyptic Beasts: Faces now Unveiled!
@F M Shyanguya If it's all the same to you, I'll accept the three clear prophecies saying we are to trust Donald Trump and ignore the views of the Simpsons. They preach smut, abhorrent, horrendous filth & blaspheme Christ, His Priests, & His Church.
Why don't you believe the Prophecies that are everywhere on the Net. ? Our Lord chooses whom He will to prophecy in His Name, whether it's Balam, or the Witch that bore witness through Samuel's visit that God was condemning Saul for paying her a visit.
Why don't people like Trump? He prays! Satanists have become Saints - King David and Judah were forgiven grave crimes of immorality, worse than Trumps - ( Christ is descended from both through Our Lady) so I think there's a hope for Donald J Trump to be forgiven one day TOO! Especially since he asked for a public rendition of Ave Maria to be sung to the crowds outside the Whitehouse, which is not something that the Devil permits his minions to do.
When did Biden prove recently that he's got the Holy Spirit, since Trump is able to preach, why won't Biden? Biden's recent failed attempt to mention God went something like this... "Um Ur - Uk!.....Er....you know....you know who I mean, the one who created the world" A sure sign of a possessed nature is a the one who cannot speak the Name of God.
Whereas, what do we find with Trump? It's the complete opposite! Everywhere he goes he's demanding a return to "one Nation under God" and shouts out "God bless America" Trump is far more trustworthy IMHO than Biden. Not for nothing does Scripture inform us that nobody can say Jesus is Lord without being inspired to do so by the Holy Spirit.
If I were you, I'd vote for Trump because of the Prophecies alone - just in case God asks me later why I chose to ignore them. Take care. God Bless
