Biden to tap Ketanji Brown Jackson as justice President Biden will nominate federal judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to replace retiring Justice Stephen G. Breyer, according to people briefed on the process, a historic choice that fulfills the president’s pledge to nominate the first Black woman to the Supreme Court. Jackson, 51, would also be just the third African American in the high court’s 233-year history. A former public defender, she served as a trial court judge in Washington for eight years before Biden elevated her last year to the influential U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. She was confirmed to that court after a relatively uncontentious Senate hearing and with the backing of three Republican lawmakers.
Hawley cites 'alarming pattern' in Supreme Court pick's treatment of sex offenders Republican Sen. Josh Hawley on Wednesday slammed President Joe Biden's Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson, claiming he's seen an "alarming pattern" of "letting child porn offenders off the hook for their appalling crimes." Hawley, who met with Jackson last week as part of her rounds on Capitol Hill ahead of Senate Judiciary Committee hearings next week, took to Twitter on Wednesday to levy extensive claims about the judge he said make him "concerned that this is a record that endangers our children." "As far back as her time in law school, Judge Jackson has questioned making convicts register as sex offenders — saying it leads to 'stigmatization and ostracism.' She’s suggested public policy is driven by a 'climate of fear, hatred & revenge' against sex offenders," Hawley tweeted.
Well, I can see that since Epstein was killed and obviously not available that they might have to look at other pedophile enablers. Prince Andrew is looking for other employment these days and there is no requirement that a Supreme Court Justice be a U.S. citizen, so there is another option.
Hawley so desperate after his pro insurrectionist popularity drop, he's now catering to the Qanon crowd.....sad
