OMG same. They simply can't stand a powerful black woman. They can't. It messes with their ego in a way they can't even explain, and threatens their manhood for some strange reason.
I'd really hate to be an old white guy right now. Because American can't stand them.

It’s exactly the same situation Barrett faced. The Democrats were attack dogs and the Republicans were respectful and allowed her to speak. It’s amazing that some of you are determined to pretend Jackson is somehow being treated differently. She’s not.

Bad behavior is bad behavior. It's not justifed based on who is doing it or it having been done before. Also Barrett was grossly unqualified compared to KBJ which led to much of the fodder from Dems. Republicans do not have that advantage with KBJ so they're arguing irrelevant points that are outside of her purview. It's not really the same.

BS. Democrats slammed Barrett based on her personal religious beliefs. It was disgraceful.

Because she wants to impose her personal religious beliefs on to the population of the US. THAT is disgraceful.

If she doesn't believe in abortions, then she shouldn't have one. But neither she, nor anyone else, should have the right to deny the same to any woman who wants or needs one.

And has she tried to prevent any woman from having an abortion? Nope. She also said that Roe v Wade is established precedent. So you can STFU with your lies and gaslighting.

They’re building their sound bites for their future campaigns. Their base will be thrilled to see their representatives doing —what they will likely view as putting an overly educated uppity Black woman in her place. This public nastiness is a total win for them, and even more so if they can get KBJ to stumble publicly and on camera.

Zero self-awareness. Need we remind you AGAIN about the nastiness Democrats displayed to Barrett and Kavanaugh? Take a seat and maybe review *those* hearings, why don’t you.

Irrelevant when we're talking about the current hearing.

Why punish Ketanji for what happened in the past?

Who’s punishing her? She’s being treated the way nominees are always treated. Why should she be given the kid-glove treatment?

Not letting her speak when a question is asked is unprofessional. Yelling at her because you don't agree with her is unprofessional.

She will be confirmed. That is a fact. Putting her under duress because of it is a punishment.

If it was wrong for Barrett (and Kavanaugh), and I'm sure you would argue that it was, it is wrong from Jackson.

The fact that it was done before doesn't make it right.

Graham: "Good! Good! Absolutely right! I hope you would! I hope you go to jail for 50 years if you're on the internet trolling for children in sexual exploitation – see you don't think that's a bad thing, I think that's a horrible thing."

Mic drop Graham. Totally schooled her

She said as board member at GDS she was not aware that they were teaching CRT and is not responsible for setting currriculum. Someone needs to follow up with her and ask her as a board member of GDS now that she has been made aware, what is her opinion on what was being taught at a school where she was on the board?

A) Is GDS a public school? (I don't know the answer to that but, since you're such an expert, I assume you do).
B) CRT is not the same as religiously held beliefs on abortion for Catholics. As another poster explained, and having been raised Catholic, I can tell you that person is correct: There is no gray area on that issue for practicing Catholics.

A) 1. GDS is not a public school 2. The judge was on the board of GDS, I do not know if she still is. 3. Senator Cruz provided compelling evidence that CRT is being taught from a young age at GDS.

The questioning is a hate-crime.

Are private schools not at liberty to teach whatever the hell they feel is appropriate? Or are Catholic schools now prohibited from making religion central to what they teach, too? And what is the judge supposed to do, develop curriculum for the school where her kid goes?

No kidding. Yet the R's would have been the first to yell if the anti-gay, antichoice/anti-birth control teachings of the Catholic schools attended by ACB, Cavenaugh or Gorsuch had been attacked directly during a SCOTUS confirmation hearing.
