“When Amy Coney Barrett was nominated to the Supreme Court by President Donald Trump, Democrats portrayed her as a threat to healthcare protections and Republicans saw her as a conservative who would fulfill their desire to see the court move sharply to the right,” the Wall Street Journal reports.
“In her first term on the bench, Justice Barrett in many ways defied the predictions of both sides.”
“Yet Justice Barrett left little doubt that she sits firmly on the court’s right wing, not once casting a vote with liberal justices against a conservative majority. Her appointment, replacing the late liberal Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, cemented a 6-3 conservative majority on the court.”
