Fitting that Clarence Thomas swore her in

Black man who is anti civil rights who replaced another Black man who was a civil rights icon (who ironically paved the way for Thomas), swears in woman who is anti women’s rights who replaced another woman who was a women’s rights icon (who ironically paved the way for Barrett)....
