Progressive group buys domain name of Trump's No. 1 Supreme Court pick
By Marina Pitofsky - 09/25/20 10:36 PM EDT


Progressive group Demand Justice is redirecting the website AmyConeyBarrett.com to a webpage criticizing the record of Judge Amy Coney Barrett, President Trump’s expected pick to replace the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court.

Multiple people familiar with the process confirmed to The Hill that Trump is set to select Barrett, a judge on the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals, on Saturday.

The webpage accuses Barrett of being “someone who could be counted on to overturn Roe v. Wade and end the Affordable Care Act,” in addition to criticizing her record on worker rights.

“She is also one of the favorite judges of people who want to overturn Roe v. Wade, because they know she will be a reliable vote to roll back reproductive freedom,” the website claims.

The webpage also includes a fundraising link organizing efforts opposing Barrett’s conformation before Inauguration Day in 2021, when Trump or Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is set to be sworn into office. Demand Justice is a "progressive movement fighting to restore the ideological balance and legitimacy of the federal courts," according to its website.

1. It's astonishing to me that no one thinks to try to secure the domain with their own name

But so be it. I'd buy ads on FB and use that doman for donations sent straight to Lincoln Project. I noticed their latest Lindsay Graham ad has disclaimer, so no one gets to claim they were cheated into donating to the wrong place. hahahaha
