Yesterday the U.S. Senate confirmed Ketanji Brown Jackson to be the next Supreme Court justice. Biden’s SCOTUS nominee was confirmed with yes votes from all Democrats and three Republicans who Sen. Dick Durban praised for “rising above the partisan fray.”
Speaking of the partisan fray, Robert Reich was just appalled by how horribly some Senate Republicans treated Judge Jackson during the confirmation hearings. And by “horribly” we mean “had the audacity to scrutinize her record on the bench”:
History will never forget the flagrant disrespect the GOP showed Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson during her confirmation hearings.

What is it with these people? Does he actually believe she was treated worse at her hearing than others?

Do lefties like Reich really think nobody remembers the not too distant past?
Shut up, you disingenuous, pretends history began this morning cretin. https://t.co/FjP3dUZNfa

What apparently is not “flagrant disrespect” is when Democrats try to destroy a nominee’s life based on lies and slander.

Justice Clarence Thomas might have a word or two to say to you about this…

Now do Robert Bork, Clarence Thomas, and Brett Kavanaugh?

Reich and the rest of the Democrats would rather everybody just forget about all that.
