I caught parts of Ketanji Brown Jackson’s confirmation hearing today as I drove home from work and ran other errands this afternoon and evening.
I am so impressed by this woman’s intelligence, grace, knowledge of the law, and clear commitment to defend the Constitution. I’m also in awe of her superhuman ability to suffer fools (ahem, certain senators) and remain professional and articulate in the face of such obvious partisan theater. Some male senators repeatedly interrupted her while she was answering their questions.
I just read that she concluded her third and final day of confirmation hearings one hour ago. What a grueling experience. Her daughters and husband better take good care of mama.
