On Monday, the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee met to consider the Supreme Court nomination of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the high court. In recent days, Jackson has taken harsh criticism over her lenient sentencing of seuxal predators, specifically in child pornography cases. Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) roasted Jackson over seven specific cases where predators were let off easy.
Hawley cited cases such as United States vs. Hawkins, where the guilty was recommended 97 to 121 months in prison for these offenses by the Federal Sentencing Guidelines. Jackson gave the defendent only three months in prison. Other cases Hawley mentioned were even more grave.

Sen. Lindsey Graham then called out leftists’ hipocrisy regarding the nomination of Judge Jackson, mentioning another district judge nominee who called Democrats out for double standards.
According to The Hill:
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) fumed over progressive criticism of J. Michelle Childs, a district court nominee who was also a Supreme Court contender, and accused Democrats of holding a double standard against GOP nominees.
Graham’s remarks, which came near the start of the four-day hearing for President Biden‘s actual nominee for the court — Ketanji Brown Jackson — are the most extensive comments Graham has given on Jackson’s nomination since his meeting with Jackson last week.
…
“The attacks from the left against Judge Childs was really pretty vicious, to be honest with you,” Graham said.
…
“This is a new game for the Supreme Court, and this game is particularly disturbing to me,” Graham said.
“If that’s the way the game’s going to be played then I’ll have a response, and I don’t expect it to … reward that way of playing the game,” he added.
He also told Jackson how the media is her best friend:

Biden said he would pick a black woman to be a supreme Court judge before even seeing others qualifications. What he did was racist as Hell and that should have been grounds for impeachment. This is a political stunt to get black votes. Democrats need to be removed from all offices .
Since they’re holding what I just posted, let’s see if this goes through. In a couple of words, she fits their agenda and checks all the boxes.
That holding stuff gets mighty old, doesn’t it?? 🙁
She seems to have a soft heart for Child Predators, always letting them off easy even after being a repeat offender. This idiot is the LAST THING WE NEED ON THE COURTS…SHE IS JUST A DC JUDGE…NOT EVEN QUALIFIED…JUST LOOK AT BIDENS VP!!!! A TOTAL MORON
many of them are black…she is racially motivated…….as well as devoid of any sexual morality or concern for youth and innocence.
I do NOT want this person confirmed to the United States Supreme Court for their stance on child sex abusers.
This person’s liberal/lenient view of child sex abusers matters to each of us.
No matter the color of the skin, what their sex is, whatever religion they choose nor what their political party is, this person should NEVER be a judge in any court. I am shocked they are in any way or form part of America’s legal system.
This person’s attitude toward sex abusers could bring harm to many, many children in the future.
That alone should make it impossible to seat them on the United States Supreme Court…..
Biden is a total idiot and the real racist! He and his entire administration are fools who only pander to minorities to get their votes. In reality we were a much more united country regardless of race prior to the Biden debacle that we are exposed to today!
I agree, Chris. But I do think the minority pandering started when mr Obama stepped into the White House in 2008, although it has gotten much worse this past year! No qualifications or experience required — only that they be able to check off a box on their “equity” list.
buffoon biden was told who to pick just like he was told to pick harris its all a setup from the left
It is a deep, deep, sickness that allows weak punishment of those who can commit these crimes. The reasoning they have in not reasoning, it is one thing, it is EVIL. NO ONE who has these values with the allowance of almost no punishment should be allowed in any office and especially the highest court of this country. She is evil, go away.
But then, those who have chosen her are evil, too. So we can expect nothing else!! 🙁
If this woke, racist, pedophile loving so called “judge” gets on the SC then this nation is lost and will not survive. Any judge who gets on the SC needs to be a constitutionalist. I also believe any nominee should have been on a lower court for a minimum of 10 yrs. and their term be changed from lifetime to 20 yrs. That would give them 30 years toward a federal retirement.
This administration cares nothing about qualifications or anything else. Only that they are able to say we’re checking off boxes on our equity list!!
This is such a racist nomination. He appointed her strictly because she was a black woman. He stated that beforehand, she isn’t qualified to be on the Supreme Court. It’s politicized enough already. How about Condalisa Rice?
And Magdalene, there are many other qualified candidates, that fit the racially proposed, “race/gender” requirement of this very racist president. We really need to consider quality, and I would love Ms. Rice, if she’d consider the work
I actually took the time to watch today’s hearings, and want to watch the questioning for sure.
Many Republicans were great, but the winner was Senator Marsha Blackburn from TN.
Man, she really gave her a fantastic public woopin! It was fantastic! Called her out on all her pathetic activism.
Hawley was more intellectually powerful and on target from a legal standpoint than Blackburn, whose issue is at best only a 50% win for conservatives……. weak sentences for sexual predators who molest and rape minors is a really heinous crime
This nominee is clearly a radical leftist and doesn’t belong on the Court. We need real JUDGES on the Supreme Court.
NO WAY…anyone that is easy on those that harm children should be on any court especially the United States Supreme Court…..
NOT be
What did y’all expect? The truth is that the liberal news media delusional shit they’ve been shoveling starting to in believing their own bullshit. This black women is so far left and unqualified to become a Supreme court justice. Another liberal democratic socialist party puppet stooge and a Biden f**kup
It’s always amazing to me how individuals that claim they are “their own person” quickly agree to be a token/pawn of others. Like much of the NBA, this nominee plays down the “paths” that have been created for her as an American as she gleefully worked to destroy that same America! She will actively work to destroy the 2nd A, because she and the rest of the Left know it’s one of the main tools we have to protect ourselves from them ! She does not belong on the SCOTUS !
POTUS46 could have nominated Judge Judy. She has all that judging history, Is obviously a liberal, and she is a woman.
She makes frivolous decisions and is often rude and is judgmental in a nonjudicial way. It appears obvious, in my opinion, that she knows nothing about the Constitution yet she comes across as a “Know it all.” She has never had an opinion overturned. She has never sentenced a pedophile to a shorter then recommended sentence.
Judge Judy would tell the Senators questioning her to shut up if she didn’t like their questions.
All these attributes meet what the Democrats want in a Justice on the Supreme Court which would make her a better candidate from their point of view than Ketanji Brown Jackson. It’s obvious that POTUS46 did not get the approval of AOC before nominating Ketanji Brown Jackson.
Hopefully Ketanji Brown Jackson will not be approved as a SCOTUS Judge and POTUS46 will have to nominate another candidate. Will it be Judge Judy?
I hope not!
I just wonder if Talia or Leila Jackson, daughters of Ketanji Brown Jackson were kidnapped, beaten and raped, if the sentence would be light on the perpetrator then.
Any Republican who votes to confirm this box-checked mockery of a judge is a racist.
