OPINION: 'Those who hint darkly that KetanjiBrownJackson is an inferior candidate or an 'affirmative action' nominee should look in the mirror,' writes retired federal Judge Nancy Gertner. 'The caricature reflects their biases, not the truth.'
Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, with President Joe Biden, speaks after she was nominated for Associate Justice of the US Supreme Court, in the Cross Hall of the White House in Washington, DC, February 25, 2022.
This caricature, of course, is a familiar one. McConnell wants to portray the three justices appointed by Democrats as “left;” the media paints them as liberals. These labels reflect the divisions in American politics, not reality. More liberal than what? More left than whom? Not so with the appointees of former President Donald Trump, whose positions on substantive matters like abortion, affirmative action, the delegation of power to federal agencies, presidential authority, are hardly mainstream and worse, coexist with their lack of respect for precedent.
