“Yes,” Barrett replied again.
Kennedy asked one more time, “You’re not lying?”
“I am not lying,” Barrett said, going on to explain that she had taken that oath previously before she took her seat on the federal bench, and said that she had not violated it.
“I would take it again,” Barrett continued. “Oaths are serious to me.”
“Well, now, Senator Harris just called you a liar,” Kennedy pivoted to address Harris, who had questioned Barrett just prior to him. “She said if you take that oath, you would be lying. That you have already made up your mind on how you will vote on some cases, particularly dealing with abortion and the Affordable Care Act. Let’s just cut to the chase. She said you are a liar. Are you a liar?”
“I am not a liar, Senator Kennedy,” Barrett replied.
Kennedy asked Barrett to affirm again that she was not a liar, asking her to look him in the eye and swear “in front of God and country” that if she took that oath she would mean it.
“I will mean it,” Barrett said.
“Do you swear to God?” Kennedy asked once more. Barrett said she swore to God, saying again that she had taken the same oath at the Seventh Circuit and she had meant it.
“You will never break that oath? No matter what your personal feelings are? No matter what your religion is?” Kennedy continued.
“No matter what my religion is,” Barrett replied.
Kennedy asked one final question on the matter: “So, when Senator Harris and her colleagues say you are a liar, they are wrong?”
“They are,” Barrett concluded.
