Well…with the certain elevation of Ketanji Brown Jackson to the supreme court, it is right to tout here as the first African American woman to become a supreme court justice, and I am pretty excited for just that fact…but, to me, one of the major other reasons to like here and look forward to seeing her on the court is that she is not an inexperienced, ideological hack like the last three justice installed by the repubs who only brought ideology and nothing more…she is a real judge who was not pushed by the federalist society and the millions in dark money that got Barrett, Kavanaugh, and Gorsuch installed there with the corrupt help of mcconnell. She is someone who takes the job seriously and is not there to just get unpopular right wing wish lists imposed on the people of the US that they can’t get through legislation….I, for one, look forward to reading some of her opinions since they will be from a serious person who reveres the law and will rule accordingly…can’t wait…

A great pick…
Well…you know, when a dem president gets the chance to nominate someone to the Supreme court, it’s never someone like “I like beer” Kavanaugh or the blank slate liar like Barrett, and Biden’s pick of Ketanji Brown Jackson shows that in glaring neon lights….what a great pick…Ms. Brown is someone who has served as a clerk for retiring justice Stephen Breyer, has criminal defense experience, and is someone who can bring to the court and wide experience in how the law affects people’s lives…and does not believe in the “originalist” bullshit that the right uses to destroy settled law like Roe but will interpret the law as resilient as time changes the circumstances of the law….oh, and I didn’t mention she will be the first African American woman on the court that will also bring that experience and knowledge to the right wing majority of the court who feels, like Roberts does, that racism no longer exists in this country…while the repubs pass racist voter suppression laws all over the country after the Roberts court gutted the VRA. I am pretty excited with this pick because Biden didn’t fall into the repub talking point that he should nominate a conservative dem to the court…that is not what the court needs…what it needs is someone who understands what the law means to real lives…and in Ms. Jackson he has that jurist…what a great pick….
