The GOP continued to be on one.😠😠
But, Judge Brown Jackson was wonderful.
No matter what else happens from this point, Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson will become Associate Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson
All these Republicans who sat there torturing her and trying to break her will not prosper and they will be forgotten in history
She will be remembered pic.twitter.com/trlGSgkNYN

Never forget. Elections matter. Without Joe Biden winning, and the Democrats winning those Senate seats in Georgia, none of this would be happening.
If you don’t think that the Court is on the ballot in November, you haven’t been listening to the GOP.
“But don’t worry my sister, God has got you. And how do I know that? Because you are here and I know what it has taken to sit in that seat.” – Senator @CoryBooker to Judge Jackson today.
Thank you Senator for saying what needed to be said. pic.twitter.com/l7CnRiP0XA

Watching Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson's confirmation hearings have been triggering in a way that I'm not sure anyone who isn't a Black American can fully understand

Well y’all.
I’m closing the day with these hopeful words Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson spoke to the young people of this country who may doubt their ability to achieve greatness.
Goodnight. 🤎 pic.twitter.com/yzZtEnNpiR

This bullying, badgering disgrace happens because Rs don't police their own, Ds don't use power to stop them and media prefers to downplay and normalize R's conduct. Groups who support KBJ should be outraged by the failure to treat her respectively with deference she has earned.

Sen. Cory Booker might be going on, but EVERY Black person, especially Black women, knows what those tears are that Judge Brown Jackson just dabbed away.

On a live stream of the hearing with over 500 Black women. My Black women group chats are blowing up right now. We are watching this hearing and baby …….. Black women are hot.
Ya’ll will see us at midterms. Thank you and have a great day. #ConfirmJudgeJackson

When we say #ProtectBlackWomen & support Black women, we mean what Sen @CoryBooker did for Judge #KetanjiBrownJackson today. It was a welcome reprieve from the guttersnipe filth coming from Republicans & a reminder that #BlackJoy is an act of resistance. pic.twitter.com/pAPzdqjGw6

During Sen Cory Booker’s comments, I know I am not the only Black woman in America crying right along with #JudgeKetanjiBrownJackson.
“You have earned this nomination. You are worthy.”
Thank you @CoryBooker, for having Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s back. pic.twitter.com/G2wjmNhUcJ

This is why diversity matters. Without Booker no member would have spoken up like this. Amen.

Ancestors bless Senator Cory Booker for standing up for his Black sister Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson in the most joyful, passionate terms.
Back home we have praise singers. That’s Cory.
“Nobody is going to steal our joy. You deserve to be here.”
Ketanji and I are both crying pic.twitter.com/IdugDJYb48

There’s a former Senator behind Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson that has served as her Sherpa throughout this entire Confirmation Hearing by the name of Doug Jones. He’s been a great support just a few steps behind her. pic.twitter.com/D7U5VUiJ0E

For many Black people watching the KBJ confirmation hearing is very triggering. While we are undeniably proud of KBJ and the historical significance of this moment, we are triggered watching her being questioned by white people who are unqualified for their jobs.

After Booker finished speaking, Judge Jackson walked off the floor smiling and sniffling. Senators (and members of congress in the room!) ran up to Booker.
Kennedy gave Booker a hug. So did Klobuchar. Hirono flashed him two thumbs up. Jackson's parents also hugged Booker.
— Julie Tsirkin (@JulieNBCNews) March 23, 2022
Senator Jon Ossoff reminds us and the Republicans in the room that there are “millions and millions of people who are watching and cheering [her] on. Right now at this very moment in homes across this country.”

They’re asking Jackson about CRT and other race-related questions to justify their inevitable talking point that Kemanji Brown Jackson Is a Scary Race-Baiting Radical and they’re going to say that about her no matter what her answers are

Long story short, the GOP message going into the 2022 midterms will be Sleepy Joe Biden Appointed an Angry Black Revolutionary Woman to the Supreme Court to Angrily Legalize Child Pornography and Our Brave Republican Senators Tried to Warn Us
— Dreamweasel (@Dreamweasel) March 22, 2022
…in every aspect of our jobs, especially promotions and discipline. Example: Amy Coney Barrett, Brett Kavanaugh.
It is insulting to state that KBJ is an affirmative action pick, when white women have benefited the most from affirmative action. Yet, here we are.

Watching the disrespect that the GOP Senators inflict on #JudgeKetanjiBrownJackson is shameful. All of the Black Women I follow, have stated, this is EXACTLY how they, their friends & family are treated in so MANY of their encounters: shopping, working, healthcare, classes. 1/6
