Justice Amy Coney Barrett Ignites Anger on the Right

“The Supreme Court’s closely divided decision this week to reject the Trump administration’s freeze on foreign aid unleashed a torrent of vitriol from the president’s supporters largely aimed at a single justice — Amy Coney Barrett,” the Washington Post reports.

“On podcasts and social media, conservative allies of President Donald Trump called the former law professor and appeals court judge ‘evil,’ a ‘closet Democrat’ and a ‘DEI hire.’”

“Barrett and Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. joined the court’s three liberals in backing a federal judge’s order that requires the administration to begin repaying global health groups nearly $2 billion for completed work.”
