Only a handful of his promises.

i called this 5 years ago - and even though she’ll just be writing dissents for the foreseeable future - I’m glad she’s on the bench.

I wish Biden hadn’t said he would nominate a black woman, but he had to give the black political class some symbolic victory.

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson seems like the most accomplished jurist we've seen in a long time, and she has the most diverse legal career we've ever seen. I hate reducing her to just a black woman supreme court justice when she is more accomplished than anyone on that court. Shorty probably would be chief justice in a just world.

I hate this shyt, truly. Hilarious how this card is only applied for democrat nominated black people. A republican president putting the first black woman on the SC would be ignored and ridiculed. And yes I support this judge and like her, I'm a liberal etc. I'm just tired of how we allow some people to push the button depending on who gets the green light from one party. I don't want to hear a damn thing about a black republican senator being a disgrace for voting against the black judge, as if the blackness is the only thing that matters. When we can magically determine the blackness doesn't matter when it's Clarence Thomas. Then it's about judicial opinions and ideology. Give Tim Scott the same benefit of the doubt. Period.

A Republican nominating anyone black is automatically met with and it’s usually the case…

So Susan collins, murkowski and romney are a Yes on Judge Brown which means we don't need manchin and sinema
Some dems were panicking that those 2 b*stard could vote no, now it doesn't even matter.

It's still fukk all republicans plus machinema and blue dog dems though

Manchinema have voted for all of Biden’s judicial appointments
