Washington (CNN)Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor made a significant false claim on Friday about Covid-19's impact on children.
I bet Kavanaugh rolled his eyes when she said this  |

She also famously said this about judges of different gender and race...
"a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life."
She said that white men have inferior life experiences compared to female Latinas. Saying something that bigoted, would get you instantly banned from jury duty. But apparently it doesn't preclude you from being on the Supreme Court for life. |

Again Jim post this again with no context
a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life
white male who hasn't lived that life
Not sure Jim how you twisted that comment to be bigoted
Oh wait I do she called out bias
And that triggered your white victimhood
How dare a person of color speak the Truth

Jim leaves out she ruled on over 300 cases but Amy 75 overall
Brett at least did 12 years on the bench

That's worth noting, sure.
How many times was Barrett overturned, unanimously, on appeal?
How many times did Barrett say that her race and gender result in more wisdom than any other race or gender? |

What's wow about it, 80% of Puerto Rico is white. She is Puerto Rican.
Are Italians POC's, are Greeks POC's, are Turks POC's? They are darker skinned than Western Europe, but they are still Caucasian by race.

Biden should have just asked the federalist society to draw up a list and picked from that.

and regardless of who Biden picks ( which won’t change the political
makeup of the court so who really cares), maybe the gop can drag some broken person out to say they were raped by the nominee.

Shows the hypocrisy of the R.
Yes, let's investigate - but do a real investigation. |

paul would respond
"Shows the hypocrisy of the R."

So somehow Biden announced this before Trump kissed the federalists societies butt and promised to pick someone from the list they produced or before Reagan said he would hire a woman  |

There was an allegation against Kavanaugh, and also against Biden. Should we investigate both? or only investigate allegations against republicans?

I'm guessing you missed my response otherwise why ask about investigating both?
Hard to investigate a President but if the SC nominee has credible claims against them then by all means investigate - and as I said a "but do a real investigation" not the shame the Rs did with Kavanaugh |

“credible”. yup. a very broken person making politically convenient, yet unbelievably vague allegations with massive holes in it.
Why did Feinstein wait until
the very end of Kavanaugh’s first round of hearings, to break the story? She had the allegation all along. Other than for political drama and political impact, what possible reason was there for her to sit on it for a week?
i don’t know when the rape happened, i do t know where it happened, i never told
anyone about it, i don’t know how i got home, can’t name a single
other person who was at the party, but i know who did it.
reeks of credibility.
