The judge has been questioned before about her conservative religious views, the Democrat Dianne Feinstein telling her in a Senate hearing in 2017 'the dogma lives loudly in you'.
Barrett defended her position, saying there was no conflict of interest between her strong personal faith and her ability to be a judge. Barrett's positions on immigration, healthcare and LGBTQ rights worry Democrats and progressive groups, particularly over whether she will vote to approve additional restrictions on abortion

Sen. Feinstein has created an new American saying: "The dogma lives loudly within You." is even better than "It's the land of the free!"

What a bigoted statement by Sen Feinstein!

Senator Feinstein trying to impose a religious standard for confirmation in direct contradiction of the First Amendment of the Constitution. Shameful. Disgusting.

Leftists are putting Barrett in the hot seat because her religious convictions don't line up with theirs. Hmm...whatever happened to "diversity is our strength"? 🤔

Marxist dogma lives in Democrats

The Guardian supports women as long as they are leftists.

Great news that Amy Coney Barrett has been proposed to take over from the late Ruth Bader Ginsberg, the key here is upholding the law as it is written in the constitution. Religion, race and creed and political affiliations are not the important elements to consider.

Funny how anyone who criticizes Omar is a bigot but criticizing someone for being a Christian is AOK from Dems.
