Ketanji Brown Jackson

On Monday’s installment of The Daily Show on Comedy Central, host Trevor Noah declared that Republican senators who did not stay and applaud Ketanji Brown Jackson’s confirmation to the Supreme Court were “assholes” who wanted to get their “free N-word passes.” After crediting Mitt Romney for staying and applauding the vote results, Noah turned his attention to other Republicans, “All…

NBC's Saturday Night Live aired several jokes in their most recent episode scouring Senate Republicans Ted Cruz and Tom Cotton, and nobody expects the "independent fact-checkers" will find "missing context" in the humor. They have punished right-leaning satirists at The Babylon Bee, but liberals get a pass as they pretend Ted Cruz called Ketanji Brown Jackson a pedophile for a week,…

The Monday after the confirmation of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court, the cackling coven of ABC’s The View kicked off the show by boasting about it with co-host and NeverTrump Republican Ana Navarro lashing out at Florida’s (her home state) Republican senators for not supporting Jackson’s nomination.

Supreme Court nominees having to answer questions from senators is part of the process, but  MSNBC’s Tiffany Cross used her Saturday show to declare that Ketanji Brown Jackson having to answer questions from her “basic ass” “intellectual inferiors” is proof that black women face hurdles in America that others do not.

ABC, NBC, and CBS all gushed over the “history” making Supreme Court confirmation of Ketanji Brown Jackson on their respective Saturday morning programs. Of the three, only CBS put in minimal effort to show substantive criticisms of Jackson existed.

All three networks on Friday praised the confirmation of Ketanji Brown Jackson, the first female African American on the Supreme Court, as “history made” and “an inspiration for everybody in this country.” And while all Americans should rightly be proud of another racial barrier falling, liberal journalists were not as excited when Condoleeza Rice became the first female African American…

Reaching to new Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Senate confirmation vote, Friday’s CBS Mornings debased itself with cartoonish fluff and hero worship over Jackson and the “emotional,” “exciting,” and “proud” moment that so many had “people...watch[ing]” that the country’s “collectively...beaming with...pride” for her.
