THREAD: As the confirmation of #AmyComeyBarrett begins in the senate, protests have begun outside.
At the Supreme Court this morning, both pro and anti-ACB activists arrived, often trying to move in front of one another for the cameras.pic.twitter.com/EQHkvRsJ8Z
Amidst a lot of yelling between the two sides, I did film one dialogue that lasted about 10 minutes between one woman against and one woman for ACB's nomination. It was on my livestream, but I've posted the full conversation here as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZK_aVkji7Mg …pic.twitter.com/3DB0uFHw9q
"Fetuses are not babies and abortion is not murder!" said folks with @RefuseFascism in handmaiden costumes.
"Hey hey, ho ho! Roe v Wade has got to go!" chanted pro-life activists, some dressed as #AmyComeyBarrett.pic.twitter.com/AmZxnnJ2wh
Capitol Police at the Supreme Court are generally known not to intervene too much in demonstrations like this, and today wasn't an exception. Things sometimes turned into a pushing match, which police stayed out of. I didn't witness any serious injuries.pic.twitter.com/kkwGgLsXgo
Activist @SunsaraTaylor with @therevcoms and @RefuseFascism explained that she sees the confirmation of #AmyComeyBarrett as a "part of carrying out the theft of the election in plain view."
She also says ACB is a "Christian fascist theocrat."pic.twitter.com/4s1hfzy34a
I asked supporters of #AmyComeyBarrett to respond to the claim from protesters that she's a "Christian fascist theocrat."
"Judge Barrett is going to rule according to the constitution," one said.
"Every feminist should be on board with ACB's nomination," another added.pic.twitter.com/GOn09tO1Hx
These two guys dressed as flip-flops to signify @LindseyGrahamSC "flip flopping."

Is it rude to ask people to put their mask on this woman’s like spitting in her face..
Her last comment about "whoever gets voted in, my life really won't change"... is sadly the point. And why allowing this oligarch is unacceptable. And yes. Repealing Roe v Wade would change the lives of millions of women who need to have abortions across this country.
Oh, hey, that’s @AnaMariaArchil2 staying calm in the face of a ranting, unsafe woman.
