Senate Democrats were a no-show this morning in the Senate Hearing Room for the vote on whether to move forward with the confirmation of Judge Amy Coney Barrett for the Supreme Court.
The vote on whether to confirm Judge Barrett went forward by a vote of 12-10.

Democrats are claiming the nomination should not go forward so they also held a press conference this morning to announce they believe the Republicans are in a “mad rush” to confirm Judge Barrett.

This woman is highly qualified to be on the Supreme Court. Still, Democrats are doing what they always do…turning this confirmation into a political decision and NOT a decision on whether this judge would be a worthy Justice on the Supreme Court.
Judge Barrett has very high approval ratings among Americans. Democrats should be very careful here.
Desperation has set in to stop the confirmation of Judge Barrett. Key Democrats Schumer, Feinstein, and Durbin appeared only to trash Judge Barrett and stir up fear that Judge Barrett’s confirmation on the Supreme Court will drastically change America. These Senate Democrats are all career politicians desperately trying to hold onto power.
The group of Senate Democrats made false claim after false claim including an attempt to say that voting is being suppressed.

The unhinged left were trying to interrupt Senator Schumer:

The fascists are NOT on the Right. The left has a temper tantrum anytime they don’t get their way.
