- It's 2022. What do we do now?
- Dennis would this kind of thing go down in Philly? Chatham Co, NC, right next to Durham Co and I'm telling you we would shut this place down if they tried that here!
US Supreme Court Nomination Hearings
-Ketanji Brown Jackson
On February 25, 2022, President Joe Biden announced that he would nominate Ketanji Brown Jackson to the position of Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States to fill the an upcoming vacancy by Stephen Breyer, who announced his retirement on January 27, 2022 at the age of 83. How hateful those Republicans are being. They're mad because she is more qualified than any other justice currently sitting on the US Supreme Court, including the Chief Justice!!!! If she gets confirmed, she will be the first Black woman justice on the US Supreme Court in history!!!!
