Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson

[milestogo]

was a great pick for the court. She is thoughtful, compassionate, intelligent, and fearless. I think she will leave a mark on the court and the country.

Kudos to Joe Biden and the Senate for selecting her.

1. I agree, I see Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson as a legal giant, a huge fountain of legal knowledge and expertise. nt

2. Agree. I hope her voice is not muffled/stifled by the dead weights of the FedSoc.

4. Same! ❤️

6. Heck, deleted my original post response in error. Re posted here.

I'm hoping I live long enough to see the Supreme Court add more Democratic SC justices and Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson becomes the Chief Justice in my lifetime.

13. That would require Democrats & those who usually vote Democratic to actually get out and vote

for the Democratic nominee whoever that may be.

15. I am disappointed by and ashamed of those who call themselves Democrats who in '24

either chose not to vote at all or who chose not to vote for the Democratic nominee.
They helped to give us Trump.

[stopdiggin]

16. and I am disappointing in the (multiple) tiresome mantras

about how the Ds have 'let us down' - and (in my case) that is inclusive of people that did vote in 24 - but can't seem to help themselves from continuing to trash ....

Words matter.

25. Whenever republicans do something truly awful,

so many, especially in the media, are quick to attack Democrats, like Democrats are supposed to be perfect in every respect, all the time.

Democrats are not responsible for the incompetence, corruption, and dishonesty of republicans yet they are expected to equally share the blame all the time.

21. This is why I cast a wide tent...

Trump voters
Ass-on-couch'ers
Jill Stein/Cornel West/Mickey Mouse voters
Down ballot only'ers
Bernie writer-inners

19. Even if Democrats get a majority

It's unlikely that Jackson becomes Chief Justice. It's easier to just put a new Justice on and make them Chief than to promote a current Justice to Chief. Only five of the seventeen Chief Justices were Associates first, and Charles Evans Hughes had actually resigned to run for president in 1916, so he wasn't still on the court when he was nominated to be Chief in 1930.

7. ITA and feel the same way about Sotomayor and Kagan. Nt

[KPN]

8. Definitely!

[Buddyzbuddy]

9. Agreed, enthusiastically!

10. Everything you said is true ...

But if (R)'s ever get a super majority in the Senate with a majority House, they would impeach every liberal female in the court.
They would find any reason to do so.

11. She is amazing.

You can call Bill Clinton and Joe Biden centrist all you want, but they made two of the best SCOTUS choices ever (I am referring to RBG in Clinton's case).

12. You had me scared. NT

[milestogo]

18. In these times I try to find things and people that inspire

and she is one of them.

[Mysterian]

17. She is brilliant

Thanks to President Biden for appointing her.

[Jit423]

22. YES!!!!!

[Magoo48]

23. Yup.

[PatSeg]

24. Oh yes, I think she is wonderful
