    David Gorski, MD, PhD Retweeted Jason Stanley

    I'm actually not convinced that she's "very competent." Maybe competent, but certainly not "*very* competent" and certainly not competent enough to be on the Supreme Court, even aside from her obvious ideological extremism.https://twitter.com/jasonintrator/status/1316711307928838147 …

    I had an open mind about Judge Barrett, who is clearly very competent. But after a few days, it’s apparent that she is an ideological extremist the likes of which I have almost never encountered in public life. The media has not done a good job here explaining this.

        If she weren’t very competent I would be less worried.

        Some of the competence is Republicans accepting it and playing to that.

        If a judge were “very competent”, wouldn’t she know those five freedoms right off the bat? Huh?

        You mean 5 years total legal experience is competence? Hey, I'm a PGY15, that's good enough to run the FDA right? Not exactly

        I am also not convinced. Sasse gave her an easy question that anybody who is going to sit on any federal court should be able to answer. What are the 5 freedoms guaranteed by the 1st? yet she couldn't list them.

        Shouldn't someone be a judge for more than a few years before being elevated to the highest court in the land? How can we really judge her competency with such little experience?

        She was on an appeals court, she has never tried a case. She really has no track record at all. The cult thing is creepy too.

        And the scary part is, of all the female judges who Trump et al have appointed as judges these past few years, she's presumably the best of the bunch....
