> guest: i think for most people, we already felt very comfortable and very confident in justice kavanagh and what he had walked us through. one of the things we knew was going to happen is nothing but mosalso the limits in grilling m and he had to be fully prepared. it didn't make it any less uncomfortable, future supreme court justice about his, you know, whether he liked to drink beer. the whole world knows by now that he did, and even more uncomfortable, talking to him about any relationship he has particularly the most intimate details of his personal relationship. the other part that made it uncomfortable it wasn't just back and forth, but this was a closed door setting. we knew the questions they were asking would likely be in public and for me as a parent, that made the process much more difficult and i think that we saw the emotion from justice kavanagh in the room that day and the whole world watched in astonishment in some way when he talked about his feelings throughout the process and just the spirit of that so it was necessary but it didn't make ity more comfortable that we

seen in the past that these can be very contentious hearings particularly as we saw with justice kavanagh still we know that the initial hearings are planned for some time in the neighborhood of october 12th with a vote to confirm judge barrett happening somewhere around october 29th with just days until the u.s. election and we should also point out here that most americans don't favor having these confirmation hearings in advance of the u.s. election in fact most believe that even though it is the cost right at the president to do so that he should wait until americans have voted for president what have the democrats been saying what have been the reactions and do you think public ponying will shift much from this. there's concern about how the balance of the court could be affected what we're not seeing this time are the very personal attacks at least so far on judge barrett it's a difficult character resume given the fact that she is a working mother of 7 she has a child with special needs and also 2 adopted children of color you know on paper she is a very highly qualified candidates

with the events surrounding brett kava nagh when he with the events surrounding brett kavanagh whenfe. why this matters? well, the supreme court makes decisions that really do shape the lives of americans. we are talking about a range of issues here. though it invites, presidential powers, who you can get married too, if you can own a gun, immigrant rights, you know, every single issue in american life is on the line here. —— voting rights, presidential powers. it is actually really significant and lots of surveys have suggested that when it comes to elections the supreme court justice is actually a really big issue for a lot of the voters which issue for a lot of the voters which is why this has become a political firestorm. you know, what will happen next is that, as i mentioned, there will be names put forward, there will be names put forward, there needs to be 51 republican senators who will back this. some republican senators have indicated they won't confirm the nomination, but it is one of those things that will probably be played out for some time. naomi iqbal, we will leave

the issues that have played exupery in court nominations in particular what happened with justice kavanagh play into this dynamic and are unfortunate but doesn't the senator from south pipa ticket only hypocritical when he says record these words. there's no doubt that there are people on both sides of this issue who spoke out last time during the maryland garland and persuasion who are going to have their words thrown back at them certainly lindsey graham is dealing with some of that barack obama chuck schumer a number of people who made comments at that point are going to have to to hear those again the reality is the focus rightly once a nominee is announced and that process starts that process should really focus not on what was said back then but on the merits of this nominee and showing that vacancy. this can lead to of things this can lead to. democratic president a democratic senate and the senate votes to increase the supreme court to 12 they can do that and one of the things that we've heard is talk about court packing it was a really bad idea the last time that it was tried it's

difficult to attack as we saw with the previous confirmation hearing of justice kavanagh what we see is this instead will be on the makeup of the court and adding judge tony barrett what that could do to potentially decisions for decades to come yeah because of the way it changes that conservative liberal composition on the supreme court is going to be fascinating to see how just weeks away from the election it galvanises the right and then also the groups on the left that have been doing this incredible fund raising yeah and that's going to become clear in the next few days what i think we may see is the energies of the left not going into challenging the appointment or the nomination of judge tony barrett but instead in trying to win the white house because there are a number of. remedies if you are a liberal mindset here in the united states that that could be done to counter this one of them is if democrats win the white house if they win control of the senate if they maintain control of the house of representatives they could change the law and increase the number of justices fr

stakes are very high that's why the fight is going to be extremely better as they were in the case of kavanagh because there was a swing vote candidate who was replaced by a conservative so you know again the courts are to blame for this and of course the irresponsible politicians have landed that this is really is and it's been creeping along george has pointed out here how it's been politicized and i'd like to point out you know that's how the left is only it's really neat only the way the left it's got its agenda through is through the courts here and that's what's given conservatives it's almost an existential imperative now because what they see all of these major social legislation come into effect through the court not through congress here and this is why conservatives are up in arms and will definitely vote ok even though i would say gore should or should seek and count how we haven't really met expectations nonetheless this is going to motivate people. will agree with that because this seems very much like a so tomorrow why they're. moving the country so i think that either country c

box thomas, kavanagh, now we are going to have another of these worst moments at the worst possible moment. in keeping with the rapid pace of things, this election's october surprise has come in september, with a supreme court vacancy. the seams of our national fabric are already tearing. nearly 200,000 are dead from covid-19. protests over racial injustice and violence have rorktd cities. the peaceful transfer of power, once the hallmark of the american system, is underthreat. how grim things will get started from the news. there was only a flickering pause to memorizeler before the political jockeying started. supreme court fights are so hot because they touch issues we're most passionate about. almost, freedom, equality. and the outcomes can affect generations. 1968 was the last time there was a court seat at play this close to an election. a group of senate republicans tried to block president johnson saying he shouldn't be able to fill it in an election year, but a republican leader, edwin dirkson blocked him. when the same gop senators threatened to filibuster, republican presidentia

the democrats made to senate rules for judicial nomination as well as how democrats treated bret kavanagh during his confirmation process. joining us now is jamie harrison, running against senator graham from n in south carolina. mr. harrison, good evening. >> good evening, joshua. thank you for having me. >> i don't want to be too cold and calculating about this. i would love to hear your thoughtsant the passing of justice begins berg not only cull clierl but also politically. it's hard to ignore the fact that there's been a surge of democratic political activity since she died, including fund raising. >> my wife and i who are -- my wife's a law, a law professor and i'm a lawyer as well. our prayers go out to the begins bergbe ipz ginsburg family. she was a treasure of this nation. my thoughts to them. yo, listen, it's a hard question that we have right now. and werges it shouldn't be that hard. there is a tradition and there is a precedent set by the united states senate, set by folks like lindsey graham who basically said that no judicial nominee should be voted on in an election year

something that hasn't been reported very much but we picked up 2 seats for their treatment of justice kavanaghand expanded our senate majority to confirm the supreme court justices which was great and now democrats are really brazenly attacking judge barrett for again her faith mostly is what i'm hearing for catholic faith. and whether it's dianne feinstein or anybody else i think they ought to treat religion with much more respect i think it's a disgrace that they can do it biden and the democrats are desperate to distract from the real issues which is that their party has been taken over by socialists extremists and probably communists i think it's beyond socialism i think it's a step and could be many steps beyond if you take a look. and that if they win they will nominate justices who will destroy the american way of life the american dream they will destroy the american dream bill destroy america and destroy the united states of america your private right to own a firearm will be totally eliminated your guns will be confiscated your ability to live by your religious faith will be devastat
