Welcome
to
our
daily
feature,
Quote
of
the
Day.
It’s
a
mistake
by
ignorant
conservatives
and
wishful
liberals
to
believe
she’s
moderating.
She’s
exactly
the
person
I
met
25
years
ago:
principled,
absolutely
conservative,
not
interested
in
shifting.
—
Professor
Noah
Feldman
of
Harvard
Law,
in
comments
given
to
the
New
York
Times,
on
Justice
Amy
Coney
Barrett’s
conservative
allegiances,
despite
her
joining
with
liberal
Justices
Sonia
Sotomayor
and
Elena
Kagan 82
percent
of
the
time
in
the
Supreme
Court’s
current
term.
In
fact,
according
to
the
Times’
reporting,
Barrett
originally
voted
against
taking
up
Dobbs
v.
Jackson
Women’s
Health
Organization,
before
she
ultimately
joined
the
high
court’s
conservatives
to
upend
reproductive
freedom
in
America.
