What’s a Conservative victory for America without the Hollywood meltdown that follows?

As was expected, Hollywood is going off the rails over the confirmation of Judge Amy Coney Barrett, the newest Supreme Court Justice of the United States.

The usual suspects such as Michael Moore, Allyssa Milano, Cher, Patton Oswalt, Rob Reiner, and Mark Ruffalo chime in.

While a few celebrities were happy about Judge ACB's nomination, the vast majority were not.

Fox News has more on Hollywood's predominantly negative reaction to the confirmation of Judge Amy Coney Barrett:

"Roseanne" actress Sandra Bernhard, however, was less than thrilled with the confirmation.

Taking to Twitter, Bernhard claimed that Barrett has "total contempt of other women who demand #reproductivejustice."

"She will do anything to destroy #LGBTQ marriage & protection, she is controlled by her religious dogma & has relented all sense of intellectual acuity we need to brace ourselves," Bernhard wrote.

Alyssa Milano expressed her opposition to Barrett's appointment with a number of retweets, one of which came from "The West Wing" actor Bradley Whitford, who argued that despite Barrett's confirmation there's "still time" to flip some states.

"Punch back with a donation to flip state legislatures," Whitford tweeted. "Our lives don't have to suffer at the hands of a hijacked Supreme Court."

Milano also reiterated that she's supporting Joe Biden and Senator Kamala Harris with a picture that read, "I'm voting for women's rights & I'm voting for Joe Biden."

Cher, who campaigned for Biden over the weekend, warned: "New Supreme Court Crazy's 1st Case, May Decide Presidency."

"One Week After Election She'll Vote Down Affordable Care Act, No Preexisting Condts.She'll Keep Trump's Taxes Hidden, Bring Up ROE V.WADE. Undo & Vote Against LGBTQ Rights,& ON& ON. VOTE NOW,OUR LIVES DEPEND ON YOUR VOTE."

Hollywood director Rob Reiner also voiced his discomfort by calling out Barrett's participation in a campaign event for Trump at the White House.

"Immediately after being sworn in, our latest Supreme Court Justice attends a campaign event for a disgraceful desperate Sociopath. The Corruption is shamless," Reiner tweeted.

Breitbart with even more celebrity meltdowns:

“Truly a shameful day for every Republican Senator and anyone who has ever voted for them,” Two and a Half Men star Jon Cryer wailed.

“Expand the court,” anti-Trump comedian Patton Oswalt demanded.

Hollywood’s collective rage-fest took place as Amy Coney Barrett took her oath shortly after the Senate voted to confirm her 52 -48. President Donald Trump attended the ceremony at the White House, where he praised Coney Barrett’s legal acumen.

“She is one of our nation’s most brilliant legal scholars and she will make an outstanding justice on the highest court in our land,” the president said. “It is highly fitting that Justice Barrett fills the seat of a pioneer for women, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.”

The swearing-in ceremony was too much for left-wing celebrities to handle. Some of them invoked Merrick Garland, who was President Barack Obama’s failed pick for the high court. None of them mentioned Justice Brett Kavanaugh, whom many celebrities smeared as a sexual predator in the left’s ultimately unsuccessful attempt to torpedo his confirmation.

Michael Moore tweeted a bizarre, court-packing-themed poem while also calling Justice Coney Barrett’s confirmation process “revolting.”
