Good news for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson
The good news just keeps coming on the nomination of Judge Ketanji Borwn Jackson to the Supreme Court. It’s official! Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson is “the most popular Supreme Court Justice in years.” Poll after poll after poll tells the story of the American people’s reaction to her nomination. And the story is looking good! Gallup averaged her popularity and found she has a +27 point net in favor. That’s simply amazing.
And why shouldn’t she? It is only racist Republicans who don’t want her seated. Judge Jackson is more qualified than any of the court’s current members, and it is about time people realized this. And according to Gallup — to Quinnipiac — to Pew — even to Fox — they have.
Of course, Tucker Carlson doesn’t, but he is outside the mainstream of opinion, although he doesn’t seem to realize this. And it is looking like Judge Jackson will be confirmed before Easter recess. The Senate Judiciary Committee is planning to vote on April 4. From there, her nomination goes to the Senate floor. This is set to happen before the recess.
The vote is looking great, and perhaps we will even pick up a few republicans.
But even if we do not pick up one, it doesn’t matter. We have the votes, and we have the candidate — a magnificent candidate, the MOST POPULAR candidate in years, who will soon step into the halls of history.
