Durbin Shows He Didn’t Read Barrett’s Dissent on Felons Owning Guns

Posted by Mary Chastain on October 13, 2020 20 Comments

Hey, Sen. Dick Durbin. When you try to mansplain a judge's opinion to said judge, maybe you should read it. Durbin could not believe Barrett thinks felons should own guns! Except, you know, she didn't.

Posted by Mary Chastain on October 13, 2020 11 Comments

I guess Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham and the Republicans felt they had to address Obamacare since every Democrat claimed on Monday that Judge Amy Coney Barrett would dismiss it. Graham began the hearing with a great takedown of the socialized medicine bill.

To the shock of no one, the “Indigenous Peoples Day of Rage" in Portland, OR, took a violent and chaotic turn. The rioters targeted statues of President Teddy Roosevelt and...President Abe Lincoln. Oh, they also damaged the Oregon Historical Society building and Portland State University.

Joe Biden is having a Joe Biden kind of day. I mean, how many of these gaffes and goofs does one need to witness in order to think that something is wrong? Biden could not remember Sen. Mitt Romney's name nor could he remember the office he's running for.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham swore in Judge Amy Coney Barrett around 2 p.m. ET. We finally got to hear from Judge Barrett after hearing the opening statements from the senators. I think I speak for us all when I say that I would rather hear from her than any of the senators.

Did Kamala Harris Read Statement Remotely by Teleprompter for Barrett Hearing?

Posted by Mary Chastain on October 12, 2020 35 Comments

It looked like Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) delivered her opening statement for Judge Amy Coney Barrett's hearing remotely using a teleprompter. It made the delivery even more awkward, especially since it's hard not to follow her eyes.

I swear, these hearings serve no purpose other than for politicians to hear their own voice and put on a show. They always have to use kids to push their agenda. You don't hate kids, do you?!

Whitmer Claims Trump ‘Complicit’ in Kidnapping Plot, But Suspect Also Called Him a Tyrant

Posted by Mary Chastain on October 09, 2020 28 Comments

I am glad the FBI foiled the plot to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. I am glad she is safe and sound. It disappointed me, but did not surprise me, that Whitmer claimed President Donald Trump is "complicit" in the plot. However, a video of one of the accused shows him blasting Trump as a tyrant.

Dishonest Kamala Lied About Honest Abe

Posted by Mary Chastain on October 08, 2020 25 Comments

Kamala Harris tried to school Vice President Mike Pence to defend the Democrats' fight not to confirm Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court. Harris avoided Pence's question about Joe Biden, and the Democrats wish to pack the court and incorrectly explained why President Abe Lincoln didn't fill a vacancy 27 days before the election.
