Ah. Was this some kind of claim about Barrett promising not to issue a ruling during testimony? Diane Feinstein was an absolute sucker for buying it. Worst part is that she could have sat on the ACB nomination for, like, a month and delivered the seat to a Biden nominee. Given that McConnell held a SCOTUS seat open for eight months in 2016, you'd think this would have been an easy win for liberals.

But hey, maybe Dems will have a big enough majority to pack the courts in another two years. Surely they've learned their lesson by now.

Feinstein is a dipshit and I don't know if she wa being stupid or dishonest, but I take a greater issue that a Senator shouldn't be expected to believe a SCOTUS nominee is telling the truth when they answer a direct question under oath.
