Meet Vanita Gupta: The liberal extremist nominated to be associate attorney general.

We’re not even one month into the Biden administration, and he's already rolling out the red carpet for left-wing dark money groups and their radical agendas./1
Gupta is a liberal activist with strong ties to Arabella Advisors, which funnels hundreds of millions of dollars to far-left dark money groups, including The Leadership Conference, which she led. /2
Vanita Gupta is anti-law enforcement, anti-religious liberty, and supports packing the Supreme Court.

She wants to defund the police, but believes prisons should be forced to use taxpayer dollars to pay for hormone treatments for transgender inmates…the list goes on. /3
This is President Biden’s pick to help lead the nation’s top law enforcement agency. Rather than follow through on his promise of unity, Biden has nominated a divisive figure who will wage the left’s culture war from her government post. /4
Here is @judicialnetwork's new ad opposing Vanita Gupta. #StopGupta /5

.@FreeBeacon is reporting that a coalition of left-wing dark money groups has formed under the umbrella "Unrig the Courts," with one of its main objectives being to pack the Supreme Court. /1
freebeacon.com/courts/left-wi…
This comes shortly after the announcement of Joe Biden's sham "Bipartisan Commission on Court Reform," supposedly tasked with "studying" the same. /2
This has all of the indicia of what @SenWhitehouse would describe as a "shadowy cabal."  

Will @SenWhitehouse dig in and "follow the money" behind these conspiring groups?  

Will he and @SenSchumer send letters demanding that these groups disclose their donors? /3

This weekend marks the 15th anniversary of the confirmation of Justice Samuel Alito.

He has been an eloquent voice for the Constitution over the last 15 years, and #SCOTUS has been better for it. (1/X)
#SCOTUS has never been more protective of religious freedom in its history. Justice Alito’s consistency and leadership on that issue made that possible. He wrote the Court’s opinions in Burwell v. Hobby Lobby (2014) & Our Lady of Guadalupe School v. Morrissey-Berru (2020). (2/X)
In Our Lady of Guadalupe, which held that courts can’t second-guess a religious school’s determination as to who should teach religion, the Court adopted the standard he laid out in his prescient concurrence eight years earlier in Hosanna-Tabor v. EEOC. (3/X)

.@SenWhitehouse has anointed himself the unofficial arbiter on judicial independence and so called "captured courts"—or at least when it comes to judges appointed by Republican presidents. /1
But when his best friend, Rhode Island District Judge Jack McConnell, pens a partisan op-ed railing against DACA (litigation about which, by the way, is currently ongoing), it's nothing but crickets from Senator Whitehouse. /2

Is anyone really surprised? This is the way it always is with Senator Whitehouse.

"Judicial independence for thee but not for me."

"Dark money for me but not for thee." /3

The numbers are in.

It’s clear that Americans want Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court, and they do not want to increase the number of justices on the Court. /1

But if Joe Biden wins and the Democrats take the Senate on Election Day, we can be certain that they will make packing the Supreme Court a high priority. /2
If the Democrats succeed, they will pack the Court with liberal justices who will use the Court as a vehicle to implement their liberal policy positions.

Just like the Left wants, Supreme Court justices will look a lot more like politicians than judges. /3

This week, the country had the opportunity to get to know Judge Amy Coney Barrett.

They got to hear from Judge Barrett in her own words, and see firsthand what an incredible Supreme Court justice she will be. /1
Senate Democrats were relentless this week in their quest to get Judge Barrett to weigh in on their campaign issues, and signal how she would approach cases that might come before her. /2
But through hours of questioning, Judge Barrett proved herself to be unflappable. She was continually gracious and poised as she patiently explained that she could not, in the words of Justice Kagan, provide a "thumbs up or thumbs down" on Supreme Court cases as a nominee. /3

THE GINSBURG STANDARD

Like then-Judge Ruth Bader Ginsburg when she was nominated in 1993, Judge Barrett should decline to answer any questions about issues that may come before her on the Supreme Court. /1
Ginsburg famously said that a “judge sworn to decide impartially can offer no forecasts, no hints,” about how she would rule on a case, “for that would show not only disregard for the specifics of the particular case, it would display disdain for the entire judicial process.” /2
Since then, *every* Supreme Court nominee has applied what has become known as the “Ginsburg Standard.” /3
