NEW from @kfile and me: Amy Coney Barrett failed to disclose two talks she gave on Roe v. Wade in 2013 to anti-abortion student groups in her Senate paperwork https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/09/politics/kfile-amy-coney-barrett-roe-v-wade-talks/index.html
Barrett's failure to disclose the two events raises questions about whether the questionnaire is complete or whether there will be any consequences from the Republican-led Senate Judiciary Committee, which oversees her confirmation hearing.
Her hearing is slated for Monday.

Both undisclosed talks were from 2013, commemorating the 40th anniversary of Roe v. Wade.
The first--held in April 2013--was entitled "Being a Woman After Roe."
The second talk--held in November 2013-- was entitled 'The Supreme Court's Abortion Jurisprudence."

We don't know what she said in those previously unreported and undisclosed talks.
But that year she did disclose another talk called "Roe at 40: The Supreme Court, Abortion, and the Culture War that Followed." This is where it gets even MORE interesting https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/09/politics/kfile-amy-coney-barrett-roe-v-wade-talks/index.html

We found that video for that lecture was advertised by the school as being available on YouTube. But the video was removed by the user in 2014.
Of 11 lectures publicized as available to watch on the school's event, only Barrett's was removed. https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/09/politics/kfile-amy-coney-barrett-roe-v-wade-talks/index.html

A Notre Dame spokesperson said they had "no information on what has become of the video of that lecture."
To be clear, the lecture was previously written up by student publications. But the full lecture is now lost. https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/09/politics/kfile-amy-coney-barrett-roe-v-wade-talks/index.html

Also, Barrett was a member of the University Faculty for Life group at Notre Dame.
In 2016, the group unanimously passed a resolution for a letter calling on the university to rescind an award given to then-Vice President Biden because of his beliefs on abortion.

Barrett's chambers did not respond to comment. A White House spox said Barrett "continues to be transparent" in her confirmation process and looks forward to her hearing. https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/09/politics/kfile-amy-coney-barrett-roe-v-wade-talks/index.html
