Should the Supreme Court refrain from wandering outside the facts & question presented? Gorsach’s mother is a Major Dark Money donor. The idea that he doesn’t know who is spending money is ludicrous. He’s lying.
This guy didn't know what dark money was then how can he be a supreme Court Justice? He's a liar. The supreme Court Justice is a liar. We're in a lot of trouble
Are you familiar with the term dark money? In the loosest sense, yeah right. He pretends to struggle with lying. I assume he hasnt lied on camera before this.
It's wrong that the beneficiaries of such funding don't have the public interest and democracy at heart. He refused to say that due to his values it would be right for the public to know to protect democracy and promote transparency.
Yes, the citizens of a Democratic Republic should be given the names of donors to every candidate for every office. Because if a candidate was honest and honorable in all his dealings, he would not accept contributions from a corrupted source. But if a candidate did accept contributions from a corrupt source, it would be very important to know.

Gosuch being evasive, changing the subject, not answering directly. A democracy is always about representing the electorate... benefiting the greater good not the individual & not about someone's opinion of interpretation which is skewed to a small group or individual.
THANK YOU SEN. WHITEHOUSE AND THE ENTIRE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE.. How is it possible that this #$@&%^* Gorsuch would NOT KNOW who was spending $17 million on his behalf??? Answer: ITS NOT PLAUSIBLE AT ALL, and as Sen Whitehouse points out, Gorsuch not even being curious to find out is itself a concern.
Justice Gorsuch is a phenomenal, fair-minded Justice. I would agree with you that the adjective which you used may be appropriate for Senator Whitehouse, though.
@@stanhickerson2332 He was supported by several external groups who ran ad campaigns supporting his nomination. Obviously, there is nothing wrong with any of that. Rather, it is a very good thing that in this country people are free to express their views one or another.
"i don't like it when people characterize me" slime!!!! we're gonna check you OUT, find out where you came from. "you'd have to ask them" Well, we'll see if Mr. Mercer takes my call, OK? OK!!
So after 5 years what is the judgment on Gorsuch? Is he a failure and a terrible Supreme Judge or a brilliant Justice? I would vote the latter, by a huge amount. In fact, I would suggest he is the most brilliant justice since Justice Scalia.
The justified protect family no declaration the truth mostly Mafia is criminal to give justified direct the truth story,I needed answer the door closed top secret for answer the truth.The justified love family protect family from Mafia criminal back...Is my philosophy conclusion....
A man who has a "whites only" policy in his ritzy Baileys Beach Club in R.I.?Sheldon Whitehouse is in some hot water today.I think liberalism has destroyed you acumen a bit.
Whitehouse was no match for Gorsuch. It was like a pre-schooler trying to trap an adult into making a damning admission. Gorsuch ran circles around the inept twitching drama queen, Whitehouse. Hey Whitehouse, more question prep next time. You obviously winged it and it showed. These questions clearly had an "intern" quality to them.
What Senator Whitehouse presented was food for thought. Dark Money, the Federalist Socieity, amicus briefs are all being used to pack our Supreme Court and we Americans should be concerned about this.
So you're not concerned about judges being bought by the highest bidder? You're not bothered by this massive corruption? Or are you just not aware of the meaning of this hearing?
It's actually hard to believe there are average people in this country who think someone like Gorsuch represents their interests and would decide cases that affect their lives fairly and without consideration of what his billionaire backers want done.
