Xiden has selected his SCOTUS based on certain criteria. Those criteria have zero bearing on judicial qualifications.
Tokenism Taints
Her-Oh-No! Not Again!
Federalist: “During opening statements of the Senate confirmation hearings for Biden Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson, which began on Monday, Democrats (one in particular) went into spin mode by testing out a talking point that went a little something like this: Republicans are saying you were nominated because of your race.
“It was Sen. Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, who said it most plainly: ‘My Republican colleagues and public figures have attempted to undermine your qualifications through their pejorative use of the term ‘affirmative action,’ and they have implied you were solely nominated due to your race. … Let me be clear: Your nomination is not about filling a quota.’”
Timothy Connolly fired back: “But @maziehirono She WAS solely nominated due to her race. It is entirely about filling a quota. That is exactly what you just said! It is about time we have a black woman. Those are your words. They are literally RIGHT THERE!!!”
Race-Reliance Reduces Resumes
Kaitlin reminder: “president biden *explicitly* said KBJ was being chosen based on race and gender. he promised to nominate a person who met that criteria.”
Federalist headline: “Nobody ‘Implied’ Ketanji Brown Jackson Was Nominated Because Of Her Race. Biden Stated It Proudly; Biden, not the GOP, is responsible for reducing Jackson’s qualifications to the color of her skin and the pairing of her chromosomes.”
“Try as they might to turn Jackson criticism on Republicans, this one is on Biden. He’s the one who announced in other terms that Jackson is an affirmative action pick, just as he did with his vice president (and we’ve seen how that’s turned out).”
Vivek Ramaswamy laments: “I wish Ketanji Brown Jackson’s confirmation hearing weren’t tainted by President Biden’s declaration that he would consider *only* a black woman for the job. If she was the most qualified candidate, then he should’ve just nominated her without dousing it in ‘anti-racism.'”
It is interesting Xiden said he would ’only consider a black woman’ when his nominee is unable to define what a woman is. Even I know a woman is someone with two X chromosomes.
