Chief Justice Roberts Asked to Investigate Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Behavior at Anti-ICE Grammy AwardsLowell Cauffiel 6 Feb 2026
U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts is being asked to investigate Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson for her attendance at the recent Grammy Awards marked by an abundance of anti-ICE rhetoric.
Jackson attended because of her nomination for narrating the audiobook version of her memoir Lovely One.
However, Jackson allegedly clapped as speakers blasted U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as sharp criticism of the agency became the go-to left-wing theme of the night.
Now, Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), who sits on the Senate Judiciary Committee, is urging Chief Justice Roberts to look into the matter to determine whether Jackson’s actions violate the high court’s Code of Conduct requiring her to recuse herself from certain cases.
“While it is by no means unheard of or unusual for a Supreme Court justice to attend a public function, very rarely — if ever — have justices of our nation’s highest Court been present at an event at which attendees have amplified such far-left rhetoric,” Blackburn wrote to Roberts Thursday in a letter published in its entirety by Fox News.
Blackburn went on to cite the “ICE-OUT” pins many artists wore at the show and the anti-ICE comments by presenters and awards recipients. She zeroed in on one Grammy winner opening his acceptance comments by stating, “Before I say thanks to God, I’m going to say ‘ICE out.”
That comment belonged to the Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny, the NFL’s controversial pick for the Super Bowl halftime show who received thunderous applause for reciting the slogan.
Blackburn also cited the comment made by singer Billy Eilish, who commented, “No one is illegal on stolen land,” as well as “bleep ICE.”
“These statements were just two of many polarized, highly charged anti-law enforcement sentiments from that evening,” Blackburn wrote. “It is important to note that Justice Jackson was present in the audience throughout the event.”
On Wednesday, New York Post columnist Miranda Devine reported Justice Jackson was “laughing and clapping in the audience with a bunch of virtue-signaling luvvies ranting ‘F-ICE’ every time they got on stage.”
Blackburn wrote to Roberts, “I urge you to conduct a thorough investigation into Justice Jackson’s attendance at this event and whether her presence at such an event complies with the obligation that a Supreme Court justice ‘act at all times in a manner that promotes public confidence in the integrity and impartiality of the judiciary.’”
Blackburn’s didn’t stop there, with the Tennessee senator warning against a double standard when it came to Jackson, who was appointed by Democratic President Joe Biden.
