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.

Funny one from Ken White:
It’s almost as if Jackson, as a district court judge, has experience dealing with irritating, performatively rude, mediocre white guys.

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

Was there ever a doubt she would be confirmed?

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.

We become so concentrated on what a judge's opinions are, we forget that the ultimate arbiter is supposed to be the constitution, not whatever some judge thinks.
