Ketanji Brown Jackson's Supreme Court confirmation hearing | LIVE on March 21 at 10:30 a.m. ET

[Bigun]

The bigger question is which GOP Senators sell out.

If Romey votes no, I'll be shocked.

[Kamaji]

If Romey votes no, I'll be shocked.

[Cyber Liberty]

So it will take at least one Republican vote to make it happen.

Romney seems the most likely.

Not this time.  I pick Murky or Collins.  They defy definition as "women."

Black women feel sting of ‘traumatizing’ Jackson hearings
By AARON MORRISON and LISA MASCARO2 hours ago

NEW YORK (AP) — “Senator,” she said, letting out an audible sigh.

In that singular moment, Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson spoke for countless Black women who have had to gather all the patience, strength and grace within to answer insinuating questions about their credentials, qualifications and character.

It was Day One of questioning at the Senate Judiciary Committee as the Harvard-educated Jackson, the first Black woman to be nominated for the nation’s highest court, was making history.

The federal judge had to endure hours of public scrutiny from skeptics, namely the Republican senators who are erecting a wall of opposition to her landmark nomination, the first in the court’s 233-year history, and may vote en bloc against her confirmation.

“It was really traumatizing to watch,” said Melanie L. Campbell, president and CEO of the National Coalition on Black Civic Participation and convener of the Black Women’s Roundtable.

Ben Sasse to Vote ‘No’ on Jackson’s Supreme Court Nomination, Threatening Judiciary Committee’s Approval

Senate Judiciary Committee member Ben Sasse (R-NE) announced Friday night he will vote “no” on Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Supreme Court nomination, threatening the committee’s approval of the judge.

If a majority of Judiciary Committee members do not vote to approve Jackson’s nomination, the vote may result in an 11-11 tie between Republicans and Democrats, forwarding her nomination to the Senate floor with additional procedural steps, meaning the nomination does not have the committee’s recommendation, which under other circumstances is often fatal.

Bullshit headline hot off the press from USA Today:


GOP Sen. Susan Collins will vote for Ketanji Brown Jackson, bipartisan support for historic Supreme Court nominee.

1 vote makes it bipartisan?  Excecpt now with Collins defecting, watch other RINO's pile on in a love fest with their democrat masters.

The nomination still needs to get out of committee.  Once it gets out of committee, confirmation was a given.

I'll bet it's Sasse that sends it to the floor.  Or Cornyn.

Don't discount our friend Lindsey!  Those three are probably drawing straws to see which one it will be.

I don't think it will be Lindsey; he's still really bent out of shape that the potential candidate from his state was overlooked by Bidet.

[sneakypete]

I hope she gets as much hell as Kavanaugh, Barrett, and Gorsuch got.

@Kamaji

Are you kidding?

The Dims and RINO's will be begging her for permission to praise her,and then thanking her for the opportunity when they are done.

Senate panel deadlocks on Jackson’s Supreme Court nomination

The Senate Judiciary Committee deadlocked on Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Supreme Court nomination in a Monday vote, the panel’s first tie on a high court pick since 1991.

Senators voted 11-11 on sending Jackson’s nomination to the full Senate, with the vote breaking down along party lines. The evenly split committee is one of the byproducts of the 50-50 Senate.

It’s the first committee tie vote on a Supreme Court nominee since Justice Clarence Thomas’s nomination.

The split vote doesn’t sink Jackson’s nomination, but it will require the Senate to formally discharge her nomination from committee. Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) is expected to move to do so later Monday, the first time a Supreme Court nominee has had to be discharged from committee since 1853.

Jackson is the first Black female Supreme Court nominee to appear before the committee. If confirmed as expected, she’ll be the first Black woman on the nation’s highest court.

“This committee action today is nothing less than making history,” said Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), the chairman of the Judiciary Committee.

Putting an avowed racist on the bench is hardly the sort of historic event that should be celebrated.
