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

Ms. Ramirez said in an interview published in The New Yorker on Sept. 23 that during the 1983-84 school year at Yale University, when she and Judge Kavanaugh were freshmen, he exposed himself to her during a drinking game in a dorm suite.

On Wednesday, Ms. Swetnick accused Judge Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct at parties while he was a student at Georgetown Preparatory School in the 1980s.
 
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.


The Grand Old Party, the party of inclusions. WAFJ.

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.
Cry babies...flouncing out with a pout.

So what? It is their right. The other garbage you posted are just lies.
 
Actually four women who were ready and willing to testify, weren't allowed to. But their stories backed up the allegations.
oh yeah, Michael Avantti's clients....who can forget them.

Wonder why Senator Feinstein didn't call them
 
Biden said "clean", as in clean cut, clean shaven. Obama didn't sport a Lebron James beard, or an afro.
why didn't he say that then?

He didn't....because well...that's not what he actually met. He thinks most African-Americans are dirty people that live in jungles....that is why he said he feared children would grow up in a jungle if schools were desegragated.

He's a racist

And why would you believe either of them?

Yeah... and your proof is that Biden has nominated a record number of black judges, campaigned with a record number of black candidates.

For a racist, he sure is overcompensating for it.
 
So they conclude the event with the final remark and after closed spontaneous applause starts. Some chose not to applaud and begin to exit and libs pearl clutch up yet another fact absent hoax

hahahha what are you talking about? He continues his racist rants, even during the election telling African-Americans they aren't really black if they don't fall in line with him.

Suggesting African-American reports are drug addicts etc.

Yep...agreed he certainly is overcompensating to cover up his racism.

Wow...he's got a black friend...that means he can't be a racist scum bag geez....
 
She is a piece of dumbass affrimative action Left Wing Negro shit.

She will only fuck this country being on the Supreme Court.

Stolen elections have consequences.
 
Blatant racism should never be applauded (IMHO). Some Americans can pretend that she was not given an advantage due to her skin color. Others can acknowledge that fact, but pretend that this was a good and noble thing, because Black people need affirmative action. Biden saying the judge had to be a Black female is a huge disservice to this "woman". If he had not said that it would be different. However he did say that. And that is blatantly racist and should be an embarrassment to all Americans of all colors.
