Great - so now every Republican Senator who votes against a Black Women will be labeled a Racist and give the Dems a new issue for the Mid-terms.

As an optimist I choose to see this as something that might force the so far disappointing Kavanahuhh and Barrett to behave.

“The racism is out of control”

Yes it is. At <13% of the population, Black people are currently evenly represented on the court. One more would be complete overrepresentation.

So where’s the Asian on the court, hmmm?

Fair’s fair kiddies. You were the ones who started this little game.

Janice Rogers Brown--she's conservative and black but may be too old. Nor would she be nominated by President Brandon. From Wikipedia with some deletions from their article---

Her political beliefs have been expressed in speeches, notably one delivered to the University of Chicago Law School Federalist Society in 2000. Brown's speech cited Ayn Rand and lamented the triumph of "the collectivist impulse" in which capitalism receives "contemptuous tolerance but only for its capacity to feed the insatiable maw of socialism."

Her remarks gained particular attention, however, for her thesis that the 1937 court decisions, such as West Coast Hotel Co. v. Parrish, upholding minimum-wage laws and other New Deal legislation, marked "the triumph of our own socialist revolution" and was the culmination of "a particularly skewed view of human nature" that could be "traced from the Enlightenment, through the Terror, to Marx and Engels, to the Revolutions of 1917 and 1937." She called instead for a return to Lochnerism, the pre-1937 view that the US Constitution severely limits federal and state power to enact economic regulations.

In the same speech, she also gave hints of her philosophical foundations, approvingly quoting descriptions of private property as "the guardian of every other right" and collectivism as "slavery to the tribe." She also described government as a "leviathan [that] will continue to lumber along, picking up ballast and momentum, crushing everything in its path."

The Left: Racism sucks and genders are artificial constructs.

Also the Left: Must be a black woman.

I would love to interview who ever gets the job.

to?: “how does it feel to be given the position of Supreme Court Justice based on the fact you are a black woman?”

It won’t be Kamala because putting her on the Court sets up a Gerald Ford scenario.

Yeah, to heck with any qualifications. It must be a BLACK WOMAN.

It’s the (childish, self-absorbed) leftist way!

“Light-years beyond.”

Stolen elections have consequences. This should be Trump’s pick.

No matter what color the nominee is, you can guarantee they will hate white people and do everything possible to harm them.

Why do modern-day urinalists capitalize “black” but not “woman”?!!

Not sure, but I love “urinalists” and may use that in the future if you don’t mind. :)
