I look forward to meeting with Judge Jackson and thoroughly vetting her record, as I have done for all previous nominees to the Supreme Court during my time in the Senate.  1/3

As a fellow South Carolinian and the product of some of America’s finest public schools, I believe Judge Michelle Childs would have been an excellent nominee to our nation’s highest court. 2/3

I am disappointed that President Biden missed the opportunity to nominate a highly-qualified judge who would have garnered widespread bipartisan support. 3/3

Then work with your peers to actually support Judge Jackson. Then it will be bipartisan. See how that works?

You voted yes on Kavanaugh and Barrett, neither of whom should be anywhere near the highest court, and didnt call McConnell out for blocking Obama’s appointment of Garland (who had bipartisan support). Btw Jackson was confirmed 53-44 to circuit court. That’s bipartisan.

He did not miss an opportunity. He DID nominate a highly qualified judge who has had bipartisan support.

You voted for Beer Pong Brett and the Alphabet Soup Handmaiden. Sit this one out.

Judge Jackson has 8.9 years of prior judicial experience. That’s more than four current Justices (Thomas, Roberts, Kagan, & Barrett) had *combined.* It's also more than 4 of the last 10 Justices had at their confirmations; 9 of the last 17; and 43 of the 58 appointed since 1900:

Did you vote yes to Barrett-the one who wasn’t qualified?

Truthfully, I'm surprised they let you off the Buckdancing For Butter Biscuits circuit long enough to weigh in.

She has had a great deal of bipartisan support. If you bothered to see her prior experience.
