@89th said in Biden to nominate Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to Supreme Court:
Thomas is my new hero.
There is no more hated a man in America, I mean other than Trump, amongst leftist opinionators. I’ll have to write a post about the stuff they say when they talk amongst themselves about that guy. I am a fly on the wall in a hyper liberal discussion group led by a guy who used to take piano lessons from the same teacher as me. Oh boy. The hatred they have for Thomas.

Damn house nigger.
He's a sellout by definition (not worth discussing alternative theories), and if you speak of his life, or his history, you run the risk of humanizing him. Anybody engaging in public discussions of the man must be careful to make an unambiguous point that the man is Evil, full stop.
Those are literally the terms these people speak of Thomas in.

Since the "oral" statements before the Supreme Court are so short (maybe 1(?) hour for each side), I am wondering if they really change anybodies mind.

(So why is she filibustering?)
Sorry, about that.
But at the appellate level, most of the arguments are made on paper by filing briefs, rather than in oral arguments. So, you may have a point there.

Seen in the comments: "Just not smart enough to know what a woman is."
"And she's smarter than the rest of them". That's literally what an adult says about a favorite child.

@Copper said in Biden to nominate Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to Supreme Court:
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.
Tucker is all over it.
On related note:
Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-Ga.) voted with Republicans on Thursday to block the nomination of Judge Sarah Netburn, who garnered significant controversy after ruling a transgender woman convicted of sex crimes should be transferred to a federal women’s prison.
It marked a rare instance of a Democrat breaking with the majority to bottle up one of President Biden’s judicial nominees in committee.
Netburn came under sharp criticism from Republican senators after she told Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), the ranking member of the Judiciary Committee, that she didn’t know whether it is possible to determine a person’s sex by analyzing their chromosomes.
When asked about determining sex by chromosomal analysis, the nominee told Graham, “I have never studied biology and therefore I am unqualified to answer this question.”
