The Trump-appointed justice has shifted the court to the right, but she has angered some in MAGA world by voting against some of President Donald Trump's priorities.

Summary

MAGA has turned on Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett, a Trump appointee, after she sided against Trump in two recent 5-4 rulings.

Online critics accuse her of disloyalty, with some even calling her a “DEI judge.”

Barrett has consistently ruled in favor of conservative causes but has occasionally taken a more independent approach. However, Trump supporters expect personal loyalty from the justices.

The backlash mirrors previous attacks on judges ruling against Trump, raising concerns about threats and judicial independence.

    Disloyalty? The whole point of a Judge is to be impartial and not just vote how they are told to. Otherwise what is the point. Just put any yob off the streets into the judiciary to vote yes to what you want.
