Jonathan Turley says he’s ‘confused’ why Amy Coney Barrett joined liberal justices in SCOTUS’ deportation ruling

BPR: George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley expressed confusion Tuesday about why Supreme Court Associate Justice Amy Coney Barrett dissented from a ruling allowing President Donald Trump to use a 1798 law to deport gang members.

The Supreme Court ruled late Monday that the Trump administration could use the Alien Enemies Act to deport members of the Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua (TdA) in a 5-4 decision. Turley questioned why Barrett joined Associate Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown-Jackson in their dissent to the majority’s opinion.

“The dissent is a little bit odd here, these four justices, particularly Justice Barrett. [I] wrote on my blog this morning, I still don’t quite know why Barrett joined the dissent,” Turley said. “She joined a small part of it. Part of that was saying they get due process rights, but the majority said that. So I’m still rather confused as why Justice Barrett dissented.” read more

  1. Because she’s a dumbass female. No women have every created nor maintained and country because their minds are driven by lizard brain desire to import as many new male suitors as possible for their own lizard brained procreation agendas. They lack the introspection to even understand why they glom on to dumbass shitlibbery every single time.

    As Ann Coulter recently stated, don’t vote for women. Don’t appoint them to important jobs. They will always take the side of your enemies in the end. They will always support the mechanisms that drive your society down into poverty and ignorance.

  2. She’s not extorted, blackmailed, or threatened in any way. She’s a Roberts clone. Read up/view stuff on the Federalist Society. She is/was a member in good standing. FS is Republican, Inc. — merely the photo negative of Democrats, but with better booze and bigger vocabularies. Think Lindsay Graham.

  3. Because people advising Trump were only looking for a woman to appoint.
    Everyone here knows my opinion on women in power.
    This though went beyond that even if she was male, it was clear her values outside of abortion leaned left.

  4. …and just so ya know, 99th Squad Leader had her nailed way before anyone else. But here’s the thing: no one, at that point, had any idea just how deep and wide the Deep State/Bureaucracy was burrowed into Trump’s inner circle and who among them was giving him the most important advice on SCOTUS nominees. On the same note, JFK also knew who/what he was up against and it makes total sense that he would appoint his trusted brother as AG because of it.

    Please keep praying for the success of our president and his resolve to only take advice from those he knows he can absolutely trust. When we see names of people he’s been talking with who are known snakes, we can only hope that he is playing them — as Tom Barrak once said — like a Stradivarius; just useful tools.

  6. Because too many on the religious right rally behind candidates who are anti-abortion Christians as their superficial priority criteria, and don’t look or think beyond that. It is the exact same dynamic that induced Trump (eeeyew a divorced NY’er former Democrat playboy) to select Pence as his first running mate. And how’d that work out.

  7. Photos, Bribes, Videos of susceptible white Christian-like women in high-level government positions:

    (Involuntarily) taking drugs Partying with lesbians and other Immoral acts, cesspool pockets of bribed mainstream media, brain-washed/damaged so-called “Democrats”, Communists, Marxists, Bigots, American-native brain-damaged, self-glorified terrorists, murderers/assassins without fathers.
