(Tony Sifert, Headline USA) In more than 13 hours of questioning, President Joe Biden’s Supreme Court nominee, Judge Kentanji Brown Jackson, fielded questions about illegal immigration, critical race theory, her light sentencing of child pornographers as a judge, and the Democrats’ vicious treatment of Justice Kavanaugh during his Sept. 2018 hearings.
While Democrat members of the Senate Judiciary Committee went out of their way to praise Jackson as “extraordinary” and “exceptionally qualified for this position,” and her nomination as “historic,” Republicans picked up where they left off Tuesday, when Jackson claimed that she “was not a biologist” and therefore could not define the term “woman.”
The new leftist orthodoxy is that “woman” can’t be defined scientifically or logically and that if you do so define it, you must be canceled and destroyed. Healthy. https://t.co/XOXcpYaPWn

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., pressed Jackson on her peculiar manner of sentencing convicted child pornographers, asking why she has written in favor of eliminating the existing mandatory minimum sentences for the possession of child pornography.
“If you believe as I do the computer has created a bigger demand, there are more photos out there because of the internet, more websites exposing this garbage, wouldn’t you want to deter people from going down that road?,” Graham asked.
Jackson claimed in response that “substantial supervision” was a better remedy and deterrent than prison time.
This is straight-up pedophile apologism

Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, asked Jackson about a ruling in which she “bypassed federal statute to declare that former President Donald Trump’s administration could not expand expedited deportation,” Breitbart reported.
In her response, Jackson used the leftist-approved term for illegal alien, namely, “noncitizen.”
Jackson has a history of using both “noncitizen” and “undocumented non-citizens” in lieu of the technically accurate “alien,” according to Breitbart.
In response to questioning from Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, Judge Jackson also disavowed Critical Race Theory, claiming that “it’s never something that I studied or relied on and it wouldn’t be something I would rely on if I was on the Supreme Court.”
City Journal columnist and anti-CRT activist Christopher Rufo immediately responded on Twitter.
“Ketanji Brown Jackson . . . has cited the founder of critical race theory, Derrick Bell, and endorsed its core concepts, including white privilege and intersectionality, in her speeches,” Rufo wrote. “She is lying.”
Ketanji Brown Jackson told @tedcruz she has “never studied critical race theory,” but she has cited the founder of critical race theory, Derrick Bell, and endorsed its core concepts, including white privilege and intersectionality, in her speeches.
