Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Alabama, said he will vote against appointing Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the U.S. Supreme Court. alpolitics

Tuberville said:

“From 2013 to 2021, Judge Jackson served as a judge on the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. During her tenure there, Judge Jackson routinely imposed sentences that were shorter than those requested by the prosecutors and shorter than the guidelines. Point being, Judge Jackson let those who were convicted of a crime off easy, so I took the opportunity to ask about this in our meeting.

“Judge Jackson’s answers to my questions were thoughtful but did not relieve my concerns about her sentencing record, particularly her record on sentencing criminals who preyed on young children. Children are our future. We should do all we can to ensure our communities are safe places for them to grow up. That means holding criminals accountable to the full letter of the law. And listening to the calls I am getting from folks back home, Alabamians agree.Alabama Sen.

Lol! Didn’t do him much good! 🤣

She condones pedophiles. No more Satanic assholes. That's exactly what is being represented. Wake up people.

Tubs, always on the wrong side of things.

Bottom of the barrel person, would not surprise me if there was CP on his computer.

Well, we'll be looking into what he was doing on Jan 6th...

Great- funny she was picked by Bolshevik Biden because she is black and a woman but she didn’t have the knowledge to know she is a woman…obviously she must recuse herself from any gender identity crisis case!

Who cares she’s in

Did someone explain to him what the Supreme Court is and more importantly, what branch of the government they belonged to? SenTuberville

He heard from me. I asked him to vote FOR her!

I fully support him

Of course he will. Why would he vote yes on somebody that is more than qualified?!! stupidity

Not shocked...🤨🤨🤨

Of course he did. She’s not a GOP conservative flunkie!!They would have found anything to not vote for her.

She probably used big words he didn't understand.

The person on the left is way smarter and will be in DC for life. The person on the right is a puppet.

Great news!

I think he’s still in shock that he was even elected in the first place. He looks more confused in every photo than Biden did in those doctored videos that Fox News produced.

A no vote here to.

He's never been a fan of the referee branch of government.

Shocker 🙄

Congress sets all sentencing laws not the judge

I lock step with the party platform. No surprise.

Don't vote as a politician; vote with your conscience.

Hey tubby - why did you block me on Facebook?

Because him and the others are wack!

Of course he did, he is a republican from Alabama. He does what he is told to do by the party.

'White man tells Black Woman she's not good enough' - Alabama

Let this be a lesson to all Alabamians: racism & sexism are still very alive here. When you refuse to vote for someone whose experience more than meets the job, you prove that it’s not about what you know but rather who you know and are affiliated with.GoodOleBoysClub

Why?

And in other news, the world is round.

Good job Tubby!

I don't have a brain, I just do what mitch or.Donald says

He is unqualified to make this decision.

Of course he is. He does whatever Mitch and his boys tell him to do. He just can’t stand that’s she so much smarter than him.

Yes, because he is sooo knowledgeable 🤣🤣

The man is idiot

I am Jack's complete lack of surprise. Tupperware is nothing but a rubber stamp for the GOP.

Even if she was a Republicans nominee what an embarrassment to be in the presence of such low intelligence and that his thoughts count. Hopefully a more worthy citizen of Alabama will replace this outsider next election.

Sure,cuz he’s just another Republican Duchebag out for their own greed. Just like ALL politicians in Alabama. They’re why Alabama is always last to do anything for it’s people.

DUH. He has to do what daddy Trump says.

He's such an embarrassment to Alabama, and so are the people that voted for him. He's a disgraced football coach that committed bank fraud. We had a great bipartisan senator with experience that did good things. This idiot knows nothing.

In classic fashion, our great senator TTuberville has once again reset the clock on Alabama's progress! Hey Tommy remember when you said Russia invaded Ukraine because of bread? Nice dude

Sad but not surprised. A guy that made that a lot young black men into millionaires has turned out to be racist af. THAT is what's surprising.

Not surprised 😂

Again, no surprise. Tuberville playing to his Alabama Republican base. God only knows how much I and maybe many more Democrats wish that I knew how horrible Tuberville was back when he was coaching. Things certainly would not have been the same....

It's Ludicrous to think an Alabama White Supremacist would respect any person of Color

political... purely all it is. Im GOP but she's more qualified than Tommy to be a dadgum Senator, after the gaffes that's come from that man.

What's a woman... Don't ask a democrat....What's a Judge....same answer, don't ask a democrat. Jackson completely crumbled to liberal pressure. She isn't capable of making her own decisions

Hurts when a Constitutional scholar like him will not support her. Oh wait it’s that Tommy Tuberville. .

Good at lees one of our senators care about children and protecting them from predators and the liberal DA judges who permit them to prey on kids.

No Shit! Tommy is voting against Miss Jackson what else is new from a Republican from Alabama state is full of Two barb Including the F-fers running for office of course if Tim James become governor it will become legal to hunt Gay people for sport like they do in Russia

We really need for those players who left it all on the field, to start calling out this pathetic senator, for the good of Alabama. Your voice can mske a difference for this state.

Just remember he also voted AGAINST lower meds for medicare, HELLO SENIORS!!!

I want to know who wrote his response and who looked up her sentencing record. He sure didn’t! He doesn’t even now the 3 branches of our Gov’t

berthahidalgo But why, I wonder? Hm. 🤔

If he would answer a phone in his taxpayer funded office, he might realize how many constituents see her as well qualified. Instead, we get the most idiotic message that we have reached 'coach' Tuberville. TTuberville doesn't even realize he's a senator now.

Duh

I’ll just zip-it 🤐 . We'll witness history Honorable Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson next appointment U.S. Supreme Court Justice.

In other breaking news, water is wet

Nonthinking troglodyte

That's weird.

🤡🤡🤡

🤦‍♂️

The photo tells the story.

SenTuberville just doing what his handlers tell him to do…embarrassing Alabama, as usual. What a travesty that someone so wholly unqualified for the Senate gets to vote on the most qualified SCOTUS appointment of my lifetime.

Shocking! (Sarcasm does not translate in print very well.)

I see he’s trying tu suck up by having a bust of Coach Bryant

I met SenTuberville in my office whilst he was campaigning. He didn’t seem to know his ass from a hole in the ground then - and it seems like nothing has changed.

Well he is a racist and she is a woman of color. So no surprises here

You were elected by the will of the voters. Don't do what they want, and you will be voted out.

You mean another Alabama Republican is going to be on the wrong side of the vote, again!?! *gasp* color me shocked 🙄

That’s ironic. I WILL be honored to vote against Tuberville in the next Senate election.

and he's not even smart enough to be ashamed of himself.

I will bet he has not heard from anyone back home. He just does what the Washington QGOP tells him to.

Surprise surprise

Because McConnell instructed him too

I’m SHOCKED 😳 SHOCKED, I tell ya

Oooh how surprising.
