Biden Nominates Kentaji Brown Jackson to the United States Supreme Court
Jackson with Justice Breyer, whom she is nominated to replace.
She's no doubt qualified and is a sitting DC Circuit Federal Appeals Court Judge, but I'll admit I'm disappointed. Jackson is a Harvard Law graduate, making the Ivy League grip on the court seemingly irreversible. She's also married to another Harvard graduate, a surgeon, who is of the Boston Brahmin class.
I was hoping for a less Ivy League nominee
She's likely to pass, however, the Senate Judiciary Committee and receive enough votes to be seated, an important consideration for any nominee is this highly polarized era.
