Fox News is reporting that the Senate Judiciary Committee will meet again this Thursday, Oct. 22 “to consider” Judge Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court a week after committee Democrats tried everything they could to make the judge commit to how she might decide cases, all to no avail.
Judge Barrett would succeed liberal Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who died last month following a long battle with pancreatic cancer. Barrett, by all accounts, is the opposite of Ginsburg, in that she is a constitutional originalist, where Ginsburg is considered by many to have been an activist. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
