Video shows Republicans walking out of the Senate chamber as Ketanji Brown Jackson was confirmed as the first Black female Supreme Court justice

[Concerned American]

Dimm's pre-ordered Ketanji like she was a hamburger.

Nothing burger.

 

[meaner gene]

Horseshit!
This is as dumb as applauding and celebrating a fixed horse race.

It was a "fixed horse race" in so far as the majority of the country voted a democratic senate to be in charge of judicial confirmations.

The majority of the country was behind it.

 

[B. Kidd]

Is it really?

It would have had Biden not made it where he was taunting the GOP…

Biden has made it where the new USSC Justice will be remember as the Justice that got her Job because of her skin color and sex because Biden made it that way, so as much as those GOP Senators or douche bags let be clear Biden didn’t do her any favor when he made her nomination about her skin color and sex!

She's an illegitimate SCOTUS put up by an installed regime.

Sez you.

There were have a dozen other women who were never called to testify. The FBI was limited to less than a week to do an investigation that the senate committee (lead by republicans) purposefully put draconian limits on.

It was like the 9-11 commissions limits on investigating the white house's role in the intelligence failure.

Yeah, whatever. It didn't happen.

Why couldn't the alleged "victim" remember where it occurred? When it occurred?

That woman was a complete fucking disaster, because she was trying to present a lie as truth when, in reality, there was no truth to it...

 

[meaner gene]

So you agree with Biden that you rarely find blacks who are both clean and articulate?

Obama was just like Sydney Poitier in "guess who's coming to dinner"

He was storybook, as the country already accepted Poitier types.

I am not even going to discuss the 2020 election any further seeing this is 2022…

Biden is the President but he made it clear his choice for USSC was going to be based on the individual skin color and being female…

So as the OP chastises the GOP for what the Senators have done my question is when will the OP realize Biden did more harm than good?

I am fine with Biden nominating a woman and a non-white one but he made it clear his choice was Affirmative Action and that is where those that are happy for this day should think about what Biden did!

Why didn’t Biden nominate a Asian or Native Woman instead?

Simple, Biden was pandering to the base and the OP does not see the insult that Biden did!

Actually she will be remembered as one of the courts most qualified justices, who got her job because she wasn't passed over because of her sex or her skin color.

 

[meaner gene]

Sez you.

Actually sez a majority of the country.

Elections have consequences.

 

[B. Kidd]

Yippee!!
Racism is now over!!!

Please resume your normal activities.

 

[B. Kidd]

Actually sez a majority of the country.

Stolen elections.
Corrected!

Very aptly put.

 

[Devils_Advocate]

Bullshit!

Biden made it clear this choice was about Sex and Race and are you saying that there are no Asians as qualified?

Are you saying there are no Native Americans as qualified?

The fact is Biden was pandering to his base and made it clear he did not care if someone was more qualified his agenda was about being the first President to appoint a Black Woman to the court no matter what!

So let cut the nonsense what Biden did was sad and pretty fucking pathetic!

 

[Stashman]

Actually she will be remembered as one of the courts most qualified justices, who got her job because she wasn't passed over because of her sex or her skin color.

Everything about her being picked was a racist thing to do by a known racist President. Period!

 

[meaner gene]

Yeah, whatever. It didn't happen.

Why couldn't the alleged "victim" remember where it occurred? When it occurred?

Do you mean like the way Trump couldn't remember knowing Stormy Daniels, or having sex with Stormy Daniels, or forcing a NDA on Stormy Daniels, or paying Stormy Daniels hush money?

 

[Desperado]

They did not want to stick around for the farce that was about to hppen The first justice confirmed using race and gender as her only qualifications. Using those qualifications Aunt Jemima could have been nominated

 

[Devils_Advocate]

Everything about her being picked was a racist thing to do by a known racist President. Period!

Had this been done by a Republican the same poster’s chastising the GOP and saying this is a great pick would have thumbed their nose at her and said she was picked solely to appease the Black community!

Biden words did more harm than good and the left will never own the mistake that idiot did!

I am not saying a Black woman does not deserve the position nor that she didn’t deserve it but what Biden did was make it about race and the sex and right there that should have made the Black Community upset but shit they don’t care at all!

Republicans walked out of the Senate chamber during a standing ovation as Ketanji Brown Jackson was confirmed as the first Black female Supreme Court justice in US history.

Video footage showed several Republican senators leaving their seats and heading to the exits as applause erupted in the chamber after the Senate voted 53-47 to confirm her to the Supreme Court on Thursday.

The one Republican senator filmed joining the applause as colleagues filed past was Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah, who was one of only three moderate Republicans who voted to confirm Joe Biden's nominee. The others were Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Sen. Susan Collins of Maine.

CNN's chief political correspondent, Julia Borger, said that Republicans had shown "disrespect" toward Jackson, and singled out Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, who she said had been late for the vote, and Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, who said he had not been admitted to the Senate chamber because he wasn't wearing a tie and had to cast his "no" vote from the cloakroom instead.

"Whether you agree with the outcome or not, you need to pay this woman the respect that she is due. And you need to do that for any Supreme Court nominee," Borger said.

Jackson's confirmation hearings were a grueling process, with the US appeals court judge at times subjected to questioning and accusations by Republicans that legal experts have denounced as unfair and misleading.

During the confirmation, Sen. Josh Hawley misleadingly claimed she had been lenient toward offenders guilty of child-sexual-abuse-image offences, in a line of attack criticized by the White House as a dog whistle to the far-right QAnon movement.

Sen. Tom Cotton baselessly claimed that she would have defended Nazi war criminals, falsely saying that she had chosen to defend Guantanamo Bay inmates while neglecting to mention the cases were assigned to her when she was a public defender.

In a sign of the deep partisan divisions in the Senate, the vote to advance Jackson's confirmation in the Senate Judiciary Committee was deadlocked, with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer having to use a special procedure to advance the process to a full Senate vote.

This is a prime example why black folks don't support this party.

Whether you agree with her or not, this is a historic moment in this country's history and these cowards get up and walk out.

Satan has gained a greater foothold over SCOTUS. She will go down as one of the most radical and destructive SCOTUS judges in history.

what respect is she due? Even Joetato said he only picked her because she was a black woman.

Biden isn't new to this rodeo. He's been around since Obama, and he shared the vision of making the supreme court more representative of the entire country, not just from the white males perspective.

That's why Reagan put a woman on the court. Why Bush put black man on the court.

Of course Biden has been familiar with the pool of judicial talent out there, and from it knew there were several extremely well qualified black women, who could bring a new perspective to the court. Just like how Ruth Bader Ginsberg brought a new perspective.
