Recap of Day Four: Amy Coney Barrett Hearings

Judge Amy Coney Barrett's Supreme Court confirmation hearing concluded on Thursday with testimony from outside experts, who spoke against and in favor of Barrett's nomination. Senate Democrats criticized what they called the "rushed" hearing; Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has said he plans to move “full steam ahead” on the confirmation process. The Senate Judiciary Committee will vote on Barrett’s nomination next Thursday, and the full Senate is expected to vote shortly thereafter. Coverage from left- and center-rated outlets tended to speculate on the results of the Senate vote. Many voices from the right praised Barrett's judicial prowess, and some condemned the left for criticism of Barrett's family and beliefs.
