American Values
Soft On Crime & Big On CRT
Senator Josh Hawley zeroed in on Jackson's judgment – or lack thereof – on the bench. In one child pornography case, the sentencing guidelines recommended 10 years in jail for the defendant. Prosecutors recommended two years in jail. But Judge Jackson issued a sentence of just three months!
That case wasn't an aberration. In virtually every opportunity she had as a judge, Jackson issued a far more lenient sentence in cases involving child pornography than what the sentencing guidelines called for or what government prosecutors recommended.
That should be completely disqualifying.
Senator Ted Cruz questioned Judge Jackson about critical race theory, and asked her if it was taught in kindergarten, elementary and high school. Judge Jackson said, "I don't think so. I believe it's an academic theory that is [taught] at the law school level."
Her attempt to gaslight Sen. Cruz worked about as well as Terry McAuliffe's attempt to gaslight the voters of Virginia last year, which is to say it didn't work at all.
Cruz then pointed out that critical race theory is in the kindergarten curriculum of Georgetown Day School, a private school in Washington, D.C. Judge Jackson just happens to sit on the Board of Trustees for Georgetown Day School.
Jackson has also given speeches in which she defended using critical race theory in her capacity as a judge.
That should be completely disqualifying.
Here's the bottom line, my friends: This is not just replacing one liberal for another liberal. Ketanji Brown Jackson is an ideological extremist, far to the left of Justice Stephen Breyer.
She has bought into the left's war on normalcy and its jihad against reality. If confirmed to the Supreme Court, she will use her position to fundamentally transform America.
