PFAW Member, we had to make sure you saw this!
Amy Coney Barrett just went full anti-democracy, authoritarian in her
confirmation hearing.
We know that Trump has already said publicly that he wants her confirmed
to the Supreme Court before the election in case the result of the
election ends up before the Court…
But the answers that Barrett, nominated to a lifetime appointment on the
Supreme Court of the United States, gave today in response to critical
questions are simply SHOCKING:
* Barrett refused to say that the president of the United States cannot
unilaterally delay the election...
* She refused to recognize that armed “poll watchers” would be
considered voter intimidation...
* And she refused to take a position on whether the president should
commit to a peaceful transfer of power!
We need to ramp up our efforts IMMEDIATELY. So we’re 3X-MATCHING all
donations right away.

for their efforts to ram through her confirmation (your donation will be
tripled)>>
Barrett evaded so many questions, asserting she couldn’t answer
“political” questions OR “legal” questions.
She even brushed off Trump’s refusal to commit to a peaceful transfer of
power, calling it a “political controversy” … as if staging a COUP, by
trying to hold power despite losing an election, is not an issue that cuts
to the core of our Constitution or relevant to the Supreme Court.
It confirms what we already knew – that this hearing is a total sham.
EVERY Republican involved in this shameful charade, who is subverting
democracy and the will of the People to rush the confirmation of this
Trump nominee, MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE.
That goes for Trump and Senate Republicans – including the three who are
directly involved in staging this sham hearing with their position on the
Judiciary Committee that are in close reelection races: Lindsey Graham,
Joni Ernst, and Thom Tillis.
