An Update On Ketanji Brown Jackson's Confirmation - Above the LawAbove the Law - Above the Law
Millionaires in Congress are vying for reelection via their treatment of the most decorated nominee for Supreme Court justice in the last 30 years. Judge Jackson is probably gonna be confirmed by the end of the week, but we have to play the game until then. Let’s get to this Twitter round-up, shall we?

This new worry is complemented by the worry that she will be soft on crime. Because folks care about enforcing laws now.
The hope is that the process moves on smoothly and swiftly. The whole process has had enough grandstanding from Ted Cruz and Lindsay Graham as is.
