Marsha Blackburn mocked for Constitution, Declaration of Independence mixup

Sen. Marsha Blackburn arrives for the confirmation hearing for U.S. Supreme Court nominee Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, in the Hart Senate Office Building on Capitol Hill March 22, 2022 in Washington, DC.Ari Cohn, a First Amendment lawyer, tweeted:"Literally the LEAST we could ask is that members of Congress be familiar with the country's founding documents.

"Unfortunately, our qualifications are basically 'how old are you and can you exhibit the motor functions of a tadpole.'" Educator Sari Beth Rosenberg tweeted:"Passing a basic civics test should be required for anyone running for office... This is stated in the Declaration of Independence, not the U.S. Constitution."

She invited Blackburn to come to her class one day, where her students"learned this in the beginning of the school year." Literally the LEAST we could ask is that members of Congress be familiar with the country's founding documents. Unfortunately, our qualifications are basically "how old are you and can you exhibit the motor functions of a tadpole."

Precisely her verbage shows her twisting of facts (declaration of independence) to suit her purpose. Also, this mindset exists in a portion of our country. It's disheartening and meanspirited. She is an example of the hatred that exists today.
