Wooo! Amazing!
And then the pessimist side in the back of my brain comes back to remind me it won't change anything in terms of SCOTUS rulings :(
But it's still great news nonetheless.
Congrats Justice Jackson!
So I haven't been following this at all, but whose seat did she replace?
The number of sunglasses and Karens on Twitter right now with their masks off is insane.
Yep, except Mitt Romney (and Murkowski/Collins I'm guessing).I'm reading on twitter that the GOP walked out - is that true? Shameful if so.
Nice!I was at the barber when this happened; we both stopped and watched the confirmation happen with my half haircut lol!
Saw more than a few of them freaking out about "the children". The failures of democracy. How the court is ruined.
SCOTUS terms end in June. I think the next one then starts in Oct.I believe he's finishing out this term which ends... in Oct I think, and then when the new term begins a couple weeks later, Judge Brown Jackson takes her seat.

This. Next time some idiot goes "remember when nothing happened when we won GA?", Point them to this moment. That and all the others where needed things got passed only cause we have control.Georgia made this possible, thank you everyone in GA who voted.
ThomasAs if those ghouls can feel any shame.
My only hope would be that one of the other conservative justices croaks so that Biden can appoint another minority judge to the Supreme Court. I don't know who that would be though.
Blocked how?Pretty shocked. I thought this would be blocked for sure. Guess with 6-3 it didn't matter.
