The Girl Scouts of America on Wednesday congratulated Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett on her appointment, but deleted the social media posts after sweeping criticism.
The Scouts’ Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts featured an image of Barrett and the first four women justices to serve on the nation’s highest court.
That includes Sandra Day O’Connor, Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, whose death last month paved the way for President Donald Trump to nominate Barrett.
“Congratulations Amy Coney Barrett on becoming the 5th woman appointed to the Supreme Court since its inception in 1789,” the group tweeted around 1 p.m. ET, screenshots of the tweet show.
The Scouts then clarified that the group is “a nonpolitical, nonpartisan organization.”
“We are neither red nor blue, but Girl Scout GREEN. We are here to lift up girls and women. If you would like to debate partisan police–keep scrolling,” the Girl Scouts posted on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.
Screw the Girl Scouts. So glad my daughter quit them.
I still love the mint chocolate cookies though.
Liberals destroy everything they touch
The only women the Democrats honor are themselves. They could care less about Republican women and belittle. I was a girl scouts years ago and I am ashamed they would stoop so low as to remove the congratulated Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett on her appointment.
