The conservative justice got blasted by MAGAworld for an earlier ruling against the Trump administration, but the backlash didn’t stop her from doing it again.

Amy Coney Barrett Joins Liberals to Defy Trump—Again

Summary

Justice Amy Coney Barrett sided with the Supreme Court’s three liberal justices to co-sign key parts of Justice Sonia Sotomayor’s blistering dissent in a 5-4 ruling allowing Trump to resume deportations of alleged Venezuelan gang members.

The four female justices warned the deportations could “have life or death consequences” for detainees sent to El Salvador’s CECOT mega-prison without judicial review.

Right-wing figures erupted, branding Barrett a “DEI hire” and “disgraceful.”

Influencers like Mike Cernovich and Charlie Kirk accused her of betraying conservative values despite past praise.
