1. Wow, not even trying to deny the political bias for which they are trying to pack the court. They used to pretend a middle ground. 😂😂😂😂😂 Also, let's overlook the implicit political bias in deciding the cases that are even heard by the SC. What a party liner. History will categorize this fool as another guy who propagated the big lie.

2. To say originalism is to merely say separation of powers.

3. Ted is a great person

4. So glad the baby killer is dead, wouldn't you say? Trump 2020!

5. That wig..jeez..this guy is what’s wrong about politics. Screw what the majority of the American people wants or needs..they got the senate and the presidents(till 1/21)..so take that right?? The self entitlement of the GOP ..

6. Never got over Daniel Ginsburg…he smoked weed in college. Oh dear. Bork, Thomas…..it’s three shots for a quarter rather than respectable hearing. Long knives and long memories. And…dare we think, the same geriatric committee members.

   Orin Hatch said, I believe something happened to her, but he didn’t do it. Hold my tea leaves.

   For this one, Graham said his mind was already made up. Long knives and long memories, here we come.

   They should have recused themselves for having been on the committee before. Nobody should be on the court or anywhere in Congress, after age 75. Too old, too set in their ways, too chummy with lobbyists.

   We’re paying you to think. Fossils can’t think.

7. What a political hack. Kavanaugh and Barrett are highly qualified? Really? That is cra cra. Also, how proud we should be that we have a sexual harrasser and a sexual assaulter on SCOTUS. The court has no credibility now.

8. Amy is Trump's Revenge on America !!!

9. Perfect Way to end The Interview

10. The interviewer can't get him to talk ” Smack & Stupid Negative Ignorant Comments” lol- He just looks pathetic. Clearly didn't bother to read his RESUME!

11. I disagree with his mindset that tries to focus us on democrats having voted in the most extreme numbers against Republican candidates historically. Perhaps its best to ask the "why" question.

12. I'm sure she voted for biden.

13. This msn is trash and absolutely everything wrong with the Republican Party. It’s hilarious how he wants to frame Garland and how the Republican Party acted as the same thing as how they’ve appointed Barret. They refused Obama nominating anyone (because in no small part due to racism) and have gone out of their way to destroy judicial norms and policies. “Because we can” is the argument of a petulant child. Appointment of lackeys and the 3 most unqualified justices is fucking disgusting (Thomas: disgusting and unqualified, cavanaugh : rapist, Barret: ignorant backwards and completely unqualified in every possible way) and not something they should be proud of.

14. WE THE PEOPLE of USA , do not want ''powerful government ''clerks in our congress, we want people that keep the ''books'' and follow the word of OUR LAW. ''WE have been neglectful in our past, WE will now monitor en masse OUR government TOWN, STATE, FED.. and teach our children HOW. ''NO GROUP OF CRIMINALS WILL EVER COME IN OUR BACKDOOR AND CONTROL OUR ''FREEDOMS'' , AGAIN''

15. This guy is god-awfully conservative and he will admit to nothing. "It is what it is, what it is, what it is…….." ad nausasium! I could only get to about half.

16. All three pencil pushers and pencil heads from Bush administration.

17. This interviewer is terrible.

18. Democrats are traitors. Should be put on trial for TREASON!!!

19. biden ain't gonna be president, dude.

20. we should have a random draw to pick supreme court justices from a pool

21. Absolutely sad and disgusting that the notorious RBG was replaced with a Christian fanatic by a poorly educated and inept Trump regime.

22. Does anybody think Quesling Joe MSM will get any respect?

23. Traitor has well.we hated RBG.jewish provocateur

24. What a bunch of hooey. I agree that the confirmation hearing shouldn't be a humiliating clown show, but that's about it. The Democrats have been supporting activist judges and character assassinating conservative judges unilaterally since Bork. If the conservatives put in the Democrats' judges when they have the Senate and they don't when the roles are reversed, the judiciary will be filled with activist judges. Plain and simple. This is a cultural conflict that cannot be won by not exercising legitimate political power when the other side is exercising both legitimate and illegitimate power. I don't care how qualified an activist judge is. I don't want my Senator's voting for judges that are prone to take away my rights. So Ted Olson is being foolish, unless he wants an activist judiciary.

25. guess its time for the democrats to play hard ball. Dems if you are listening, stop being so fair.

26. Religion should be appointed for RELIGION purposes not for political reasons. GOD, ABBA will interfere very, very soon. I hope we don't have a control tsunami in the country as GOD'S punishment for YOU guys stupidities. We Are the PEOPLE!!! Respect our choices, quit making them yours!!!!!

27. I wonder how a court loaded with deeply religious people can render decisions that are right for a country where those beliefs have and are now declining. I am afraid being religious will be the ‘get out of jail’ card while the rest of us will not have our rights defended. Being religious now equals carte blanche freedom to do whatever they want including authoritarianism. Will they start punishing those of us who do not share the same beliefs?

28. Impactful topics about our lives is given much less attention than a Kylie Jenner dating announcement.

    And I get it. Simpletons like Jenner and ACB are easy to absorb and they do not challenge us. It's moving the "brand", whatever it is, without creating it or examining why it could damage people.

    In government, I believe we need more Ocasio-Cortez types. AOC is the anti-Kardashian. She's easy to understand, doesn't doublespeak, and is not another Veep castoff.

29. we dont have..any corruption in our judiciary system eh? least of all, mitchy boi and his wife…you guys might wanna research that too.. oop

30. This guy has way too much faith in the integrity of the gop senate lmao

31. Sorry was a completely DBag disrespectful move by the Republican party. Plain and simple, we saw the hypocrisy front and center…..what hes right about is Moscow Mitch doesn't care about the other 1/2 of America nor what they have to say.

32. Ruth was a subversive destroyer of America.

33. My father served for 30 years in the Army…..can you imagine what he went through…..no tears for Kavannah

34. we have all gone through tough and difficult times…….

35. This such Bull…..this is a person trying to change our democracy…….one vote per person and that is our democracy……end of the discussion

36. Disappointing, but have to say he’s technically correct. But life is more than technicalities.

37. "We don't have any corruption in our judiciary system "- I would argue that point with the arm of dark corporate money that is guiding the Supreme Court !

38. I wonder are evangelicals trying to convert the US in to a religious state?

39. Please everyone let's wake up before it's too late:
    🔥🤑💥💀Please read/listen toThe Plantom Virus 📖 book from Amazon.It's all there, all documented. Plus Dominium voting machines scandal, stand back/ stay away for people watching over voting counting… And to wrap it up, " The writing is on the wall:" Maligned, scraggly Christmas🎄at the heart of Nation( brought 4 years ago from a front yard 😳, and cared for by ……- Iohud Local Newspaper on Christmas tree )with a baby owl hidden into it's branches: The tree is a symbol of the land 🇺🇸 (strength and freedom)and a owl is compared with dragons 🇨🇳 in the Bible, and in different cultures a symbol of vigilance, fierce intelligence, silence,preparation, *transition evil and death.

40. I didn't hear him cite a case where an democratic appointed Justice ever crossed over rendered an opinion that was surprising to the left.

    Just the sophist point where there were decisions that went contrary to the opinion of a democratic President. Enviably due to a republican swing vote that went in the opposite direction they assumed.

41. Pesky checks and balances.

42. I like this guy. And yes, the Dems are big name callers.
