Judge Amy Coney Barrett Confirmed

Judge Amy Coney Barrett Confirmed! Here’s Why Conservatives Should Celebrate.

By: Zachary Mettler

The U.S. Senate voted 52-48 on Monday night to confirm Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the U.S. Supreme Court. Senator Susan Collins, R-Maine, was the only Republican to vote “nay.”

The newly minted Judge Barrett is a pro-life, Catholic mother of seven who will be only the fifth woman to serve on the nation’s highest court. Additionally, she is just the second woman ever confirmed to the Supreme Court with a Republican president.
For the past several decades, Republican presidents have had a fairly mixed record at picking Supreme Court justices. Although the Grand Old Party has picked 16 of the last 20 justices, many of those court appointees have continued to enshrine much of the Left’s agenda into Supreme Court precedent.

From abortion, to same-sex marriage to the redefinition of gender, judges who were thought to be ideologically conservative when they were nominated have ended up swinging to the left once confirmed. Justices Stevens, O’Conner, Kennedy and Souter come to mind.

In 2000, Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals Judge William Pryor ended a speech he gave with this prayer, which conservatives have since made their own: “Please God, no more Souters.”

Amy Coney Barrett is no David Souter and she has the conservative paper trail to prove it.

Here’s why conservatives should celebrate tonight’s monumental victory.

Censorship of Conservatives
Facebook, Twitter and Google Execs Grilled by Senate Committee Over Censorship of Conservatives
By: Bruce Hausknecht

The Senate Commerce Committee, chaired by Sen. Roger Wicker, R-Ala., questioned Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook, Jack Dorsey of Twitter, and Sundar Pichai of Google on Wednesday concerning possible revisions of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. That’s the law that shields digital platforms from liability for content posted by third parties.

Republicans on the committee came ready for battle and confronted the three social media giant bosses on the subject of anti-conservative bias and influencing the election.
Voter Fraud in Texas
Project Veritas Releases Videos Alleging Voter Fraud in Texas
By: Jeff Johnston

Project Veritas released videos from San Antonio, Texas, showing a “ballot chaser and harvester.” Raquel Rodriguez was filmed “helping” a San Antonio senior citizen change the vote on her ballot from Republican Senator John Cornyn to Democrat candidate Mary “MJ” Hegar, so that she votes a straight Democrat ticket. Rodriguez then hands the woman a gift, a shawl.

But the apparent voter fraud isn’t confined to one party. Rodriquez says she’s a “consultant” for House candidate Mauro E. Garza, a Republican who owns a gay nightclub in the city. She says in the video that Garza gave her $2,500 for gifts for voters and states, “I can honestly say I’m bringing at least – at least – 7,000 votes to the polls.”
Red and Blue Brain
Is There a Red and Blue Brain?
By: Glenn T. Stanton

Do conservative and liberal voters have different kinds of brains? It’s not a question of whether one group is smarter than the other. That is obvious. One clearly is, but that determination depends completely on our own personal convictions. We believe what we believe because we believe our belief is the smartest position to take. Otherwise, why would we believe it, right? And we are inclined to judge those who agree with us as being smart as well. It’s just human nature. It also goes for people who like the same brand of car, music, food, faith, and books that we do. They do because they are smart.

But a new article over at Scientific American is asking whether conservatives or liberals, Red or Blue Americans, might actually have different brain structures that guide them to one side of the political aisle or the other. They explain that when various voters are put through brain imaging machines in research laboratories, differences are indeed seen in actual brain structure relative to political conviction, particularly in the areas of the brain that process social and emotional information.

Roe v. Wade
‘Roe v. Wade’ May Be Closer Than Ever to Being Overturned, but There’s Still a Long Way to Go
By: Brittany Raymer

There’s a lot of hope that the inclusion of Justice Amy Coney Barrett on the Supreme Court means that America is closer than ever to removing the highly polarizing Roe v. Wade court decision. If that happens, the legality of abortion would revert back to the states. However, overturning Roe won’t mean much if hearts and minds of people aren’t changed as well.

In the pro-life fight, one of the biggest white whales is Roe v. Wade, the historic pro-abortion decision that, in conjunction with its companion case, Doe v. Bolton, has resulted in legalizing abortion until the moment of birth. It’s a deeply unpopular decision, with both pro-life advocates and, surprisingly, some pro-abortion activists as well.

Famously, the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, an icon for the pro-abortion crowd, expressed her disapproval about how the decision was structured.
