The nomination of Amy Coney Barrett is the most illegitimate process i have ever witnessed in the senate, and her potential confirmation will have dire, dire consequences for the senate for the Supreme Court, and our entire country for generations to come. The Senate Republican majority is conducting the most rushed the most partisan, and the least legitimate nomination to the Supreme Court in our nations history. Her potential confirmation will have dire consequences for the senate, for the Supreme Court, and our entire country for generations to come.

The conditions for bringing a lawsuit against a foreign state. The Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing is chaired by senator Lindsey Graham of south carolina. Generally speaking, we have a foreign sovereign immunities act , basically shutting off lawsuits against other nations because whatever we do to them, they can do to us. We made exceptions to it. We have amended the act regarding terrorist activities. This is not an issue i take lightly. Ive thought ang lot about.
