Biden to nominate Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to Supreme Court

@Doctor-Phibes Gaetz might well be guilty of the crimes which are insinuated.
Until he's proven guilty, he's not (that's how our system works, much to your apparent dismay).
But the corollary to your picture...if he is found guilty, would Judge Jackson reduce his sentence below prosecutorial requests?

@jon-nyc right.
McCarthy's subsequent objections. are more substantive.
Nevertheless, your statement is "When you've lost McCarthy." It was Hawley who lost McCarthy, not Jackson.
Exactly.

Is Gaetz’s issue possessing porn? I thought it was fucking underage girls

Either that or transporting presumably not underage girls across state lines. Haven't looked lately.

The WaPo prints this, presumably with a straight face:
Republicans boast they have not pulled a Kavanaugh. In fact, they’ve treated Jackson worse.

I cant find the table (though I am sure it is out there somewhere), but it was a table showing the final votes for each Supreme court justice when the US senators voted on them.
if I remember, judges nominated by Democrat presidents (at least in modern history) usually got a higher number of confirmation votes.
Depending on which side you are on, both statements are true:
- Republicans are more willing to put bias to the side and vote strictly on qualifications
or - Democrats are more likely to nominate judges who are more in the center and hold no political view.
LOL

. Number one is self-evident. Anything other than that is just playing silly booger or being as dense as a rock. I've never considered you dense.

Today's big Ketanji news is that she is unable to define what is a woman.
She was asked for her definition during today's hearing.
Her answer: no, I'm not a biologist.
