After MAGA world criticism, Amy Coney Barrett delivers for Trump

Washington – While President Donald Trump delighted with a great victory for the Supreme Court who slowed down the judges’ ability to block his policies nationally, he praised special for one of the judges: Amy CONEY BARRETT.

“I would like to thank Judge Barrett, who brilliantly wrote the opinion,” he said at a White House press conference shortly after the decision on Friday.

The majority opinion of Barrett in the 6-3 decision according to ideological lines, which has at least temporarily revived Trump’s plan to end the automatic citizenship of the dawn, is a major boost to an administration which was assailed by the courts of the country for its general and aggressive use of executive power.

He also marks an extraordinary reversal for Barrett’s reputation among Trump’s most vocal supporters.

Barely a few months ago, she was confronted with criticisms of the vitriol of Maga influencers and others as she voted sporadically against Trump, including a decision of March in which she rejected a Trump administration attempt to avoid paying an American agency for international development entrepreneurs.

CNN also pointed out that Trump himself had complained private from Barrett.

It is despite the fact that he is a person appointed by Trump with a long decisive voting record in a multitude of key cases in which the conservative majority 6-3 of the Court imposed itself, in particular with the 2022 decision which canceled the Landmark Roe v. Wade.

One of these frank criticisms, Trump’s allied lawyer Mike Davis suggested that the pressure on Barrett had the desired effect.

“Sometimes feeling the heat helps people see the light,” he said in an SMS.

Maga influencers quickly praised Barrett and overthrow the liberal judge Ketanji Brown Jackson in place.

They seized the language in the opinion of Barrett during which she gave a brief blow to the dissident opinion of Jackson, in which President Joe Biden described the decision “existential threat to the rule of law”.

Barrett replied Jackson by accusing Jackson of a “surprising attack line” which was based on arguments “in contradiction with more than two centuries from the previous one, not to mention the Constitution itself”.

Jack Posobiec, a conservative Brandon who a few months ago called Barrett a “dei judge”, immediately used a similar language against Jackson, who is the first black woman to sit on the ground.

In an appearance on Real America’s Voice, a right streaming chain, he calls Jackson an “automatic hiring” in reference to the unfounded allegation of the Conservatives that Biden staff were responsible for many of his decisions.

He then described Barrett as “one of the nicest. She is not a preservative launched by the flames up there. ”

It is not only a question of the case of citizenship of duty of birth in which the Trump administration has won victory in the Supreme Court in recent months.

The court, often with the three liberal judges in dissent, also presented to Trump several victories on the emergency requests filed in court, allowing various policies which were blocked by the lower courts to enter into force.

In such cases, the court does not always list exactly how each judge voted, but Barrett was not publicly dissenting, for example, when the court allowed Trump to quickly deport immigrants to the countries with which they have no connection or ended the temporary legal protections for 500,000 immigrants from four countries.

The defenders of Barrett reject the suggestions that she would be influenced by the negative comments of Magi World, with Samuel Bray, professor at Our Lady Law School, affirming that his decision according to which limited national injunctions simply show his independent qualities as a judge.

“This should strengthen the feeling that she is her own justice and she is committed to giving legal answers to legal issues. We should not seek political answers to political questions,” he said.

Barrett, via a Supreme Court spokesperson, did not respond to a request for comments.

More broadly, legal experts said that in the term of the Supreme Court which has just ended, Barrett has shown that on many traditional conservative questions, it is “solidly on the right”, Anthony Kreis, professor at the Georgia State University College of Law.

There were fewer examples of her by following her own path than in the previous quarter, when she prevented her own path in certain significant cases.

Only Friday, it was part of a 6-3 conservative majority in three of the five decisions, including the Citizenship Citizenship of Rights. The others saw the rule of the Court in favor of the religious conservatives who have opposed LGBTQ history books in elementary schools and to maintain a restriction in Texas on adult content websites.

“I don’t think we can say that she was never drifting, but she occupied a central position on the right on the field which sometimes made her a voting of swing key,” he added. “The file of this term at the end was simply not that.”

A notable wrinkle in the case of citizenship of birth law is that Barrett, as the most junior justice of the majority, should not write it. Often, chief judge John Roberts, who can affect business when he is in the majority, will write such decisions himself.

Carolyn Shapiro, professor at Chicago-Kent College of Law, said that the mission agreed in Barrett, known for his expertise on legal procedure. But she also wondered if Roberts could have considered the impact of complaints against Barrett and wanted to “give him a place to shine from the point of view of the right”.

Even if it was a consideration in Roberts’ thought, Shapiro added: “I don’t see much evidence that she does things that she would not have done without the criticism she received.”
