Amy Barrett says it's debatable whether climate change is happening after she agrees that covid-19 is infectious and smoking causes cancer. — PolitiTweet.org

@BresPolitico I guess if they can't totally figure out the sound issues IN the room, it's even harder when it's via WebEx. But the sound really is quite bad. And Harris's second round is not generating any viral YouTube content for the Biden campaign. — PolitiTweet.org

Kamala Harris says Amy Barrett has sided with businesses over workers in 85% of relevant cases since joining the Circuit in 2017. — PolitiTweet.org

James Hohmann @jameshohmann

It may be justifiable on public health grounds to keep Kamala Harris in her office. But, optically, it was a tactical mistake to have her appear via teleconference when much older colleagues on both sides of the aisle appeared in person. Disrupts cadence & rhythm of questioning. — PolitiTweet.org

Kamala Harris is acting much more like the prosecutor this afternoon, which made her a star on the left, than she did last night as she prods Amy Barrett to express an opinion on Shelby County v. Holder. — PolitiTweet.org

Kamala Harris is talking about the long (and contemporary) history of voter suppression in the South. Tomorrow afternoon, Donald Trump is holding a rally in Greenville, North Carolina, a few hours before Harris holds an early-voting event in Charlotte. The South is changing. — PolitiTweet.org

Kamala Harris opens by musing about the fragility of voting rights in her second round of questions for Amy Barrett, invoking the memory of John Lewis and his walk across the Pettus Bridge in Selma, Ala. — PolitiTweet.org

Cory Booker just accidentally referred to Amy Barrett as Justice Barrett as he entered a letter into the record opposing her confirmation, and she seemed to smile -- just a little bit -- as she took a sip of her coffee. — PolitiTweet.org

Amy Coney Barrett on whether it's wrong for the government to take immigrant children away from their parents: "That's a matter of hot political debate in which I can't express a view or be drawn into as a judge. ... I can't express a view on that." — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Cruz is defending the Houston Astros during Amy Barrett’s confirmation hearing after Ben Sasse pointed out that they’re cheaters. Cruz said that’s a “scurrilous lie” and, jokingly, asks for the words to be stricken from the record. ⚾️ — PolitiTweet.org

Ben Sasse, who got his American history PhD at Yale, is explaining why the five freedoms in the First Amendment are all interconnected after Amy Barrett said she didn’t understand why the founders decided to group the five together. — PolitiTweet.org

Responding to a softball, Amy Barrett could only remember four of the five freedoms enumerated in the First Amendment. She forgot the right to protest. — PolitiTweet.org
