Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh speaks during his confirmation hearings in Washington in 2018.During the first day of Jackson's hearings, Republicans took turns airing their grievances over Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh's 2018 confirmation hearings. Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Ted Cruz of Texas complained that Democrats personally attacked Kavanaugh, who faced an allegation of sexual misconduct at the time from Christine Blasey Ford.
"We will be fair and thorough, as people would expect us to be, but we won’t get down in the gutter like Democrats did during the Kavanaugh confirmation hearings,” Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, said in his opening statement on Monday. “No one is going to inquire into your teenage dating habits,” Cruz said during his remarks, appearing to shrug off an accusation of sexual assault as a silly, youthful “habit."7h ago / 12:41 PM UTC
Though Jackson is facing some predictable lines of attack from Republicans, her confirmation to the Supreme Court seems very likely given that she's been confirmed by the Senate for previous judgeships.It’s possible, of course, that these Republicans would support her in 2021, only to oppose her in 2022 — if recent history has taught us anything, it’s that senators like Graham
— but the fact that Jackson enjoyed bipartisan support in her last confirmation vote increases the likelihood that she’ll fare well in her next confirmation vote.Share this -
mehdirhasan I’m really tired of him/ just go away!!!
mehdirhasan May God truly bless you, Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson and elevate you to a special confirmation of a honorable seat of High Supreme Chief Justice if the Lord’s will in the name of the Lord Jesus Amen.
mehdirhasan Leningrad Lindsey, who changes sides and alliances like most people change their socks. First he was a hawk on Russia when John McCain was still alive, then he switched to Putin's to suck up to Traitor Trump, and now he's back to being a hawk on Russia.
mehdirhasan What was supposed to be the historic nomination of the first Black woman to the Supreme Court turned out to be the historic nomination of the first Justice who doesn’t know what makes a human being a woman!

mehdirhasan She can stay at Guantanamo Bay
mehdirhasan Well hold on there, Graham DOES belong in it. So, it's understandable that he backs it. Rather it's him being outside of it that's a problem. He should support it from within.
mehdirhasan He doesn’t know shame.
mehdirhasan Unfortunately, Obama never closed it and crazy Diane Feinstein supports it? Does she know what year it is? Should there be a Jeopardy contest between Feinstein, Trump, and Quayle? Would anyone win?
mehdirhasan The fact people care more about the way accused terrorist are treated in comparison to how our own local accused are treated is beyond me. The Bay is in every state of the U.S. what makes this one so different. confirm judge Jackson
