Why none of you follow your oaths anyway

[@nickkerr8775]

6 of them did last week , they put a end to the extreme Federal power roe decision. It was unconstitutional back in the early 70s for those white male judges to take rights away from the states .

Congratulations

She doesn’t even know what is a woman…

[@truthup]

Congratulations, may Justice Jackson fulfill her oath to the best of her ability.

[@GrayCalledInAgain]

"Her"?????? Are you assuming that this person is a she? She does not know what a women is so you should not assume her gender and should use the right pronouns before addressing this birthing person.

[@mrjuannorris_]

Well I glad you’re happy, I think they’re both embarrassing, but especially her. Because she’s an embarrassment to black people like myself, and even more so to women. Affirmative-action really messed this one up.

@@FrankieSidewalks Clarence Thomas is my favorite SCOTUS judge, so of course I believe there are qualified black women... The problem is Biden said before picking her that he was looking to get a woman of color on the court, so it makes one wonder was she picked for her skin color or out of merit?

[@georgialopez6672]

Congratulations Justice Jackson! We need more intelligence in the Supreme Court!

[@tovsteh]

Jackson couldnt even define what a 'woman' is because "Im not a biologist"...is the kind of intelligence youre referring to? Or the fact that all mattered to the Biden administration when selecting a candidate was that they needed someone who is: A) Black. B) A woman. Those were Bidens own words, which by definition would be a *racist* and *sexist* thing to do... I mean you people talk about intelligence while at the same time doing and arguing for some of the most low IQ political policy and strategies in human history.
