From Bill Smelvoe: genius! A few thoughts on Amy Coney Barrett, our new Supreme Court justice.
- As noted above, she& #39;s a done deal. So Democrats should not waste time trying to besmirch her character, focusing on her religion, trying to box her into a corner on how she will

vote on hypothetical cases.
The People of Praise is not a cult. I& #39;ve had half a dozen of their kids in my classes, including some men who heard about me from their female friends. Almost without fail, these have been among the best students I& #39;ve ever had. Extremely bright.

in political hypocrisy. Don& #39;t legitimize the theft of a Supreme Court seat with your presence. This also shows Barrett that the nation knows she is letting herself become a pawn in Trump& #39;s game. That in itself says something about character.
Instead Democrats should focus on the past four years of the Trump administration. This has been the most corrupt administration in American history. No need for hypotheticals. The questions are all right there.
Careful critical thinkers. Wonderful writers. I loved having them in class. So don& #39;t go after the People of Praise.

A Democratic administration will not let a conservative court mess with Democratic priorities. Lots of avenues, including adding justices, passing a law that no act of Congress can be overturned by the Court except by a seven vote majority, etc. So keep the focus where it matter

So how should Democrats approach these hearings? I& #39;ve seen one good suggestion today. Turn all their time over to Kamala Harris. I like that one. Here& #39;s a few more suggestions.
- Don& #39;t show up for the hearings. There is no reason to dignify this raw exercise

- Schedule high interest alternate programming directly opposite the hearings. Bring together all 26 of the women who have accused Trump of sexual assault. Let them tell their stories on air. Or interview liberal justices that Biden will add to the court next year. Hearings with
