Dick Durbin blocks documents showing Ketanji Brown Jackson's judicial record
By Monica Showalter

The Senate hearings for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson's Supreme Court nomination are not going well.

Senate Judiciary Committee chair Dick Durbin is blocking the release of documents showing Brown Jackson's actual record as a judge, taking a page from the tactics of impeachment-obsessed Rep. Adam Schiff. That's how Democrats do hearings these days.

Just another example when it comes to congressional warfare, the democrats bring guns, and we use sling shots.

No testicles GOP will probably just roll over and smile.

And the Republican response SHOULD be "No documents No vote" but we all know that is not what it will be.

Can the GOP even stop a vote? Dust Bin Durbin might just say fine, a 50-0 confirmation works for us.

Fair enough; however, an individual is not a "justice" until they've taken the oath of office, and therefore they have no vested interest in the office until such time. As a result, I do not believe that the confirmation proceedings taken by one Congress would bind a subsequent Congress if those confirmation proceedings did not result in the oath of office being given to the confirmee. Thus, one could have a hundred thousand confirmed "reserves" from a Democrat-controlled Congress, and none of those would bind a subsequent session of Congress if none of them were given the oath of office.

Well we are not too far from that same horse getting a perpetual beating.

Furthermore, this woman claims she suffered from a segregationist south. What the hell? She was born in 1970. Why isn't just one GOP member asking for an example of WHERE in the south she experienced this after 1975-1980.

Dick Durbin Dabbles in Absurdity as KBJ Gives Sketchy Response to Pedophile Sentencing Questions
By Bonchie | Mar 22, 2022 11:00 AM ET

There is very little suspense on Capitol Hill regarding Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s confirmation to the Supreme Court. The moment Justice Stephen Breyer announced his retirement, it was assured that his replacement would end up with the votes needed, likely with several Republicans offering their support along the way.

KBJ’s confirmation hearing hasn’t changed that dynamic. As RedState reported, she has received tough but fair questions from the GOP members of the Judiciary Committee, with the most contentious ones centering on her sentencing of pedophiles in possession of child pornography. In the seven cases she handled on the matter, she gave sentences below (sometimes far below) the federal guidelines for the crimes committed. Sen. Josh Hawley has led the charge to expose that reality and question it.

On Tuesday morning, the second day of hearings began, and onlookers were greeted by Sen. Dick Durbin dabbling in absolute absurdity regarding the treatment of KBJ.

Holy smokes.... she comes clean early.

So what she is saying if one pervert has 10 kiddy porn pics, he should get less punishment than one with a 1000.....

Judge Jackson is removing the consideration that every piece of child pornography has at least one victim that gets re-victimized every time someone views it. If there was no demand there would be no supply. She’s only seeing it from the eyes of the criminal, not the victim.

That's totally the wrong basis for viewing the harm caused by child pornography. The gravamen of the crime is not the burden it puts on the U.S. postal service, or the internet providers, the gravamen is the sexual exploitation of children, and that is independent of how the images were delivered to the defendant.

That, by itself, demonstrates a lack of the real fine-tuned legal reasoning skills Supreme Court justices are expected to have.
