New York – Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett has not seen the story of the maid. But if they attack to interrupt her confirmation hearing, she would be disturbed by any number of protesters to bother her, just like the way they did for colleague Brett Kavanaugh.
When she narrated in an interview at Lincoln Center Thursday night, the preparations were futile: Her confirmation was carried out behind closed doors, thanks to the then Covid-19-19 and social precautions at that time. This also makes A lengthy confirmation process She said she said to laughter on the first day of justice on the U.S. Supreme Court “embarrassing.” “It’s embarrassing.”
The revelation was just a few days before her upcoming memoir, Listen to the Law.
Like her book, Barrett’s appearance proves to be what she didn’t say.

Barrett, 53, spoke easily about her family, her faith and the kindness of her newly discovered colleagues in the Supreme Court, saying she not only borrowed her office supplies and memos from the bench on her first day of work, but also temporarily dispatched their own staff to help her answers and restock her cell phone and restock. Barrett observed in his memoir: “Judgement is an essential human factor.
“Thinking left and right is the wrong way to think about the law,” she told Alice Tully Hall on Thursday night.
Even so, Barrett cleverly avoids some of the more polarized issues the court has faced over the past eight months.
Apparently, her frankness about issues involving so-called emergencies or “shadow” cases is a tool for President Donald Trump to temporarily retain a lower court ruling that would stop or stop some of his greatest execution orders.
The Supreme Court has Host Record Blitz The administration and other victims filed emergency appeals and orders during their tenure in the first eight months after Trump’s first. Six-3 Conservative judges ruled Trump’s favor in most emergency applications, allowing the administration to ban trans service members in the military, ending millions of dollars in education grants and firing probation employees within the federal government, among many other actions.
The court supported Trump in most of these claims, prompting new scrutiny, and rare public criticism from some of her colleagues on the bench.
Before the conversation continued, she proposed that the Supreme Court “is the best where it can be reviewed for cases that have been fully ruled.”

Barrett also attempts to defend the Court as an institution that goes beyond politics at a given moment, (ideally) beyond the scope of public opinion. She noted that the public’s view of the judge should Sometimes what is to be done is to violate the constitution and current Supreme Court precedents.
“I think everyone wants the court to provide the results they like,” Barrett said Thursday night, saying she said there was a disconnect between what people wanted and what the court should deliver.
She said people “want what they want” and inevitably feel disappointed with the results.
Like other judges who write memoirs on the bench, Barrett offers the noble, sometimes idealistic, of the court.
As news reporter Barri Weiss put pressure on her majority opinion in Trump v. Trump Casa earlier this year, Barrett insisted that her “spicy” remarks on Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson were nothing more than trying to “set the right calibration.”
“I think Justice Jackson made a debate with a strong attitude and thought I thought there was a response,” Barrett said.

Thursday night’s interview is the first of many public appearances Barrett coordinated with her book release next week. Sometimes it provides a refreshing personal glimpse of her nearly five years at the Supreme Court—she says she isn’t sure about the job she wants when the proposal finally comes.
Barrett recounts what her husband told her at the time that she was weighing whether to go through the confirmation process. If she chooses to move forward, he tells her: “We have to burn the boat.”
The phrase Alexander the Great uses refers to the choice that a person must eliminate all backup plans or retreats.
It was her perseverance in the confirmation process, when the media dedicated her as a touch of seven children and a super-religious mother, a mockery of the lawmakers at the time (like the sen at the time). Dianne Feinstein – “Living in You with Doctrine Loudly” – may have shocked her even more.

“To do a good job, you have to have thick skin,” she told the audience on Thursday night.
She also refuted fear of the constitutional crisis.
“I don’t think we’re in a constitutional crisis right now,” Barrett said. “I think our country is still committed to the rule of law. I think we have the function of the court.”
