"SNIP.....

“The Senate approved the nomination of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the federal appeals court in the District of Columbia, 53 to 44, confirming President Biden’s first nominee to the U.S. appellate courts,” CBS News reports.

“Jackson is considered a contender for the Supreme Court if a vacancy arises during Mr. Biden’s presidency, especially since the president has pledged to name the nation’s first Black woman to the high court if there is an open seat.”

.....SNIP"

4. She's Black too, perfect!

6. A propos of which: Pubic Hair Thomas has seen better days

The oaf has 'heart attack or stroke candidate' written all over him.

7. Yes, but . . .

I read somewhere today that Moscow Mitch told the world that, if Republicans take back the Senate, he will not allow a Biden nominee to reach the Supreme Court.


So -- Bryer had best resign soon so Biden can put this lady on SCOTUS.

9. This is surprising and welcome news.

Not the nomination, but the ease with which it passed.
