Harris wants extreme liberals on the courts

 American Action News:

Vice President Kamala Harris’ past questions during judicial nomination hearings signal her top priority when selecting judges is ensuring they will advance left-wing goals, legal experts told the Daily Caller News Foundation.

While serving as a California senator, Harris used nomination hearings to press Trumps’ judicial appointees with questions on climate change, abortion and their membership in faith-based groups. The sharp partisan slant of her questioning demonstrates she values judges who will score her political points with voters rather than those who will interpret the law and Constitution as written, experts told the DCNF.

“If you look at the type of questions she’s asking, she clearly misunderstands the role of the court,” JCN President Carrie Severino said.

During Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s confirmation hearing, Harris asked whether Barrett believed that “climate change is happening and is threatening the air we breathe and the water we drink?” At Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s hearing, Harris asked if he could “think of any laws that give the government the power to make decisions about the male body?”

This is not the role of the judiciary.  It is to carefully interpret the law and not push an agenda.  This is yet another reason to vote against Kamala Harris.

Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
