Ketanji Brown Jackson

On Mehdi Hasan's MSNBC show, guest host Melissa Murray leads a segment on "the glass cliff." The notion is that women, particularly women of color, tend only to be appointed to prestigious positions at institutions that are in crisis, and thereby are being "set up to fail." Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, and Claudine Gay, recently named as Harvard's new president, are cited as…

On Monday and Tuesday, ABC’s Good Morning America and World News Tonight covered the Supreme Court case involving a Christian businesswoman being taken to court to force her to create a website for a gay wedding with heavy doses of fear-mongering and scorn. Over three segments, senior national correspondent Terry Moran insisted support for religious liberty would turn back…

Monday’s CBS Mornings closed with an eye-rolling and nauseating interview with author, CNN political analyst, theGrio White House bureau chief, and White House Briefing Room charlatan April Ryan on the heels of her new book Black Women Will Save the World: An Anthem that, according to Ryan, was the first attempt by anyone to make sure history gave credit to black women.

On Thursday afternoon, ABC's Good Morning America (GMA) tweeted a video of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson being sworn in to replace the now-retired Stephen Breyer with the obviously false caption claiming "Ketanji Brown Jackson is sworn in as the first Black Supreme Court justice in U.S. history." This despite the fact that not only is she the third black justice, but…

ABC and NBC broke in with special reports Thursday for the historic swearing in of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson as the first Black woman to reach the high court, but the Disney-owned network went beyond the predictable accolades into the extremes as longtime Supreme Court reporter Terry Moran said Jackson will go down on the same plane as iconic Americans abolitionists Harriet Tubman and…

What comes to mind in the month of June? Weddings. Vacations (and how to pay for record high gas prices if you’re driving). Graduations. Time was when many commencement speeches at major universities were about America and its values and what graduates could expect in the future. In recent years, they have become a political capstone on the progressive ideas imposed upon them in their classes…

Facebook censored then later restored Sen. Marsha Blackburn’s (R-TN) post saying “[b]iological men have no place in women's sports." The platform removed Blackburn’s post for violating its alleged hate speech policy. “Big Tech is censoring me for…

Based off of the Wednesday edition of MSNBC’s The 11th Hour, Washington correspondent Yamiche Alcindor lives in an alternative reality. In Alcindor’s world, Democrats are struggling because they are focusing too on inflation while not countering the GOP’s culture war.

On Monday’s installment of The Daily Show on Comedy Central, host Trevor Noah declared that Republican senators who did not stay and applaud Ketanji Brown Jackson’s confirmation to the Supreme Court were “assholes” who wanted to get their “free N-word passes.” After crediting Mitt Romney for staying and applauding the vote results, Noah turned his attention to other Republicans, “All…

NBC's Saturday Night Live aired several jokes in their most recent episode scouring Senate Republicans Ted Cruz and Tom Cotton, and nobody expects the "independent fact-checkers" will find "missing context" in the humor. They have punished right-leaning satirists at The Babylon Bee, but liberals get a pass as they pretend Ted Cruz called Ketanji Brown Jackson a pedophile for a week,…

The Monday after the confirmation of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court, the cackling coven of ABC’s The View kicked off the show by boasting about it with co-host and NeverTrump Republican Ana Navarro lashing out at Florida’s (her home state) Republican senators for not supporting Jackson’s nomination.

Given the busy news week, we wanted on Monday morning to recap the best and the worst from Thursday and Friday’s episodes of The Psaki Show and hone in on Fox’s Peter Doocy sparring with Press Secretary Jen Psaki over COVID cases around the President and Vice President and then free cellphones for illegal immigrants.

After spending the previous segment celebrating Senate Democrats’ successful confirmation of Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court, the NBC Meet the Press panel eventually turned to despair when they realized this might be the last legislative success of the Biden administration before the midterms (and if Republicans take control of Congress the last period).

On New Day Saturday, CNN analyst Errol Louis suggested that Republicans are opposed to and bitter about the acquisition of civil rights for African Americans as he reacted to Republican resistance to Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson's appointment to the Supreme Court.
