Barrett faces fresh conservative backlash after Supreme Court decisions

SiriusXM host Megyn Kelly went scorched earth on “turncoat” Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett.

Kelly went after Barrett for “constantly siding with the left” after she helped left-leaning judges in the case Watson v Republican National Committee, which sought to prevent mail-in ballots from being counted after Election Day.

Watch:

“Justice Amy Coney Barrett, a Trump appointee. She’s supposed to be one of ours! Why do ours- why are they always so wiggly? Honestly, like, the libs you can take it to the bank,” Kelly ranted. “Kagan, Sotomayor, Ketanji Brown Jackson, I have to admire their commitment to their side. They never abandon their side. Only in the most obvious cases when they’d just get killed if they didn’t, in terms of the blowback, the rhetorical blowback. But they stick together! Amy Coney Barrett is a turncoat. She’s constantly siding with the left.”

“John Roberts, obviously, and he is pursuing the wrong agenda as Chief Justice. You know, he’s an ‘institutionalist meant to protect the Supreme Court.’ That’s not your job,” she continued. “That’s not your job in the actual decision-making. And I can see in protecting the Supreme Court’s reputation, standing up for justices who are under attack, you know, threatened physically, but — you change your vote for that? I don’t know that that’s what he did here, but it’s definitely what he did in upholding Obamacare.”

“So those two, you know, we’re supposed to have six, three conservatives to libs. And today we only had four conservatives, and that’s how we lost because Roberts and Barrett jumped over to the liberal side. And Barrett even wrote the court’s majority opinion. Mississippi’s a red state, but the decision is expected to have a major impact. More than anywhere in Democrat-heavy states,” Kelly concluded.
