If you watched the Ketanji Jackson Brown confirmation hearings yesterday, you got a snootful of nonsensical grandstanding.
I could go long on this and explain in detail why the nonsense was nonsense. But, frankly, if you don’t already know that, you’re not too swift. So, I’ll go short.
Here, in list format, is the skinny on yesterday’s Senate confirmation hearing on Ketanji Jackson Brown’s nomination to the United States Supreme Court.
1. The rehash of the Kavanaugh confirmation.
2. The questioning about critical race theory and the allusion by good ‘ole Lindsey Graham about how the Kavanaugh hearings tried to make Kavanaugh seem like “Bill Cosby.”
3. Asking Judge Brown how often she goes to church.
4. Attacking Judge Brown because she had ruled that torturing prisoners in Guantanamo and holding them for years without charging them with a crime violated the Constitution.
Throughout the whole day, Judge Brown kept her cool. She gave intelligent answers to decidedly unintelligent questions. It was quite a show.
