Watch Viva Freis LIvestreams with Robert Barnes. I trust his judgement and he hates her. As I'm not a legal expert, I'm included to trust Barnes fully. Basically she's going to be another roberts

I like Robert Barnes but I don't think he knows much about constitutional law.

IDK ... he seems well versed tbh. It seems ACB is a NEOCON type. Let's hope he is wrong. I hope she will be a good justice.

He is well versed in many things, but I don't recall him having much to say about SCOTUS. Barrett got all the fab reviews when she went to the 7th circuit. Neocon doesn't bother me re: SCOTUS because it's more of a foreign policy thing. I don't think she's going to be a Roberts. He is more of a problem because he's compromised.

Edit: this is National Review, but Ed Whelan is great on SCOTUS. https://www.nationalreview.com/bench-memos/judge-barrett-on-textualism-and-originalism/

and on 2A: https://www.nationalreview.com/bench-memos/judge-barrett-on-the-second-amendment/

If you are willing.. Please watch the last two livestreams from viva frei and barnes. He talks about her rulings on 2A. But the big issue is her views on civil liberties and corporations. From my understanding, she's always going to rule against you when you sue a corporation. She also ruled in favor of the lockdowns... so there is that.

Seems a lot of us want that already unfortunately. Lots of people clamoring to lick that boot.
