Any exciting matters percolating in other courts, like the California Supreme Court or the District Court of South Carolina, just to name two courts at random? #SCOTUSnominee

A friend from Indiana called me upset about the #SCOTUS appointment of #AmyConeyBarrett. My friend’s son attended Trinity School run by #peopleofpraise. Ms Barrett was Trustee until 2017.

Amy Coney Barrett signed letter entitled "Unacceptable," in 2012, attacking the ACA contraception mandate.

Senate GOP leaders are about to address media in a few minutes @NewsNationNow
Sen. McConnell says Sen. Lindsey Graham is planning out schedule for judiciary hearings on a #SCOTUSnominee @NewsNationNow
Sen. Thune says Republicans are looking forward to having a constitutionalist nominated to the Supreme Court @NewsNationNow #NexstarDC
I’m old enough to remember when Senators attempted, at least in public, to avoid breaking their word. The #SCOTUS confirmation process is broken. #ACB is the jurisprudential inverse of #RBG. But a singular focus on the #SCOTUSnominee is a trap for Dems. twitter.com/i/events/13082…
Trump's top nominee for RBG's replacement, #AmyConeyBarrett, was a member of the #Federalist Society from 2005 to 2006, and again from 2014 to 2017. Why? See this thread #SupremeCourt #supremecourtnominee #RBG #SCOTUSnominee #SCOTUSAmyConeyBarrett
Federalist Society for Law and Public Policy Studies is behind many of Trump’s judicial nominees, including Kavanaugh. Leonard Leo, Executive Vice President, served as an outside adviser to Trump on the Supreme Court and related judicial selection and confirmation issues.
Leo supported the confirmation of Neal Gorsuch to the Supreme Court and the Roberts and Alito U.S. Supreme Court confirmations in 2005–2006 & raised $15 mn+ from donors like Koch Industries, the Mercer Family Foundation.
Cards, flowers, and candles line the sidewalk outside the Supreme Court today following the death of Justice Ginsburg. More on the fight to replace her coming up on @CBSThisMorning #RIPRBG
Tributes continue to pour in for Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg outside the SCOTUS #RBGLegacy
Remarkable scene outside SCOTUS as hundreds gather to pay tribute to Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg #SCOTUSnominee #RBG
For months, we've consistently cautioned that the Senate must #PressPause on considering President Trump's SCOTUS nominee until the Special Counsel's investigation ends.
LDF President and Director-Counsel @Sifill_LDF penned an op-ed on our country’s commitment to equal justice under the law and why "it is imperative that the process to replace [Justice Kennedy] not be rushed." #WhatsAtStake #ScotusPick #SCOTUSnominee politico.com/magazine/story…
Which unbelievably biased news network should I watch now? 🎲 🎲
🗣 This is the greatest #SCOTUS pick ever by the best president in US history. The risen Jesus could hardly compete with this one. Our republic is saved.

And my conclusion:
Thanks Miranda Cherkas and Charles Sherrill. These two amazing research assistants worked very, very hard -- and very, very quickly to boot -- to help me put this list together.

Judge #Kavanaugh has been on the Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit for over 10 years. He's a member of the Federalist Society. (@FedSoc) (yikes!)
Let's take a look at his record! 🧐 #WhatsAtStake #SaveSCOTUS

ICYMI: The Federalist Society is “a group of conservatives and libertarians dedicated to reforming the current legal order.” #SCOTUS nominee #BrettKavanaugh is a member. Fun!

The President who will nominate this person is under a cloud. It would be tragic for the President to nominate someone and then for the Mueller investigation to reveal itself to implicate him. #SCOTUSnominee #CourtsMatter #WhatsAtStake
Every name on Trump’s SCOTUS shortlist passed Trump’s litmus test—Roe v. Wade. We cannot afford a justice who places partisan politics over people. We need a justice who has advocated for civil rights, not against them. #WhatsAtStake #SaveSCOTUS cnnpressroom.blogs.cnn.com/2015/06/28/don…
We have seen the extreme jurisprudence of Justice Gorsuch – who was President Trump’s first nominee for the Court. We can have no confidence that President Trump will present a nominee with a record of commitment to racial equality and justice.nytimes.com/2018/07/05/opi…
Trump's most likely #SCOTUSnominee is Amy Coney Barrett. She was a law professor before Trump decided to make her a federal judge in 2017.
Before that, she'd never been a judge.🙄
Watch her struggle to answer why she gave paid lectures to a hate group.

.@SenWarren talks about Amy Coney Barrett's lack of impartiality, hyperpartisan stances when it comes to "law and order", (hint: poor folks and people of color get the short end of the stick and that's just fine with her.)

With today's nomination of Merrick Garland, @POTUS chose #SCOTUSnominee that is superbly qualified for our nation’s highest court.
Judge Garland deserves hearing before the Senate & vote on nomination ASAP. Anything else would set a dangerous precedent. #SCOTUSnominee
