Confirmation Hearing for Supreme Court Nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson

Werbung:
It's always so "encouraging", hearing Republicans' opening-statements display their (fully-expected) hyper-pettiness. ​
 
"Republicans previewed, on Monday, their attempts to portray Jackson as weak on crime. Grassley said in his opening statement that there are two types of nominees who have worked criminal cases: "Bill of Rights attorneys who want to protect defendants' constitutional rights" and "criminal defense lawyers who disagree with our criminal laws."

"Of course, that's a very important difference," Grassley said."

"Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson testifies at her confirmation hearing to be a Supreme Court justice before the Senate Judiciary Committee."

"Some Republican senators argue that Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson’s experience as a public defender shows that she is “soft on crime.” Those ridiculous assertions, certain to be repeated at her confirmation hearings this week, are tantamount to arguing that defending a person accused (rightly or wrongly) of a crime is essentially the same as advocating for the crime itself.

The current Supreme Court, perhaps surprisingly, has precious little trial court bench experience. That troubling lack of perspective is something Republicans should be eager to remedy by setting aside their specious and partisan “soft on crime” rhetoric and voting to confirm Jackson."
 
"Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson could make history as the first Black female Supreme Court justice but some Senate Republicans with their eyes on higher political office are making her confirmation hearing all about them.

"Do you agree ... that babies are racist?" Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas asked Jackson at one point on Tuesday, as he mined books in the curriculum of her children's school in a made-for-conservative-TV grilling on cultural war issues that power Republican politics."
 
"Although Jackson has hardly lacked access to power and influence in her life, she is about as far away from the elitist “ivory tower” as any Supreme Court candidate we have seen in a long time. This balance, again, is a good thing for nearly everyone in America."
