KETANJI BROWN JACKSON: A RUBBERSTAMP FOR BIDEN’S AGENDA

Today, Biden nominated Ketanji Brown Jackson, a Democrat partisan who will put far-left special interests ahead of defending the liberties of Americans, to the Supreme Court.
Jackson would be the left-wing activist judge that Biden has repeatedly promised he would nominate and who would be a rubberstamp for his far-left policies.
- NBC News: “Jackson fits well with the Democratic Party and the progressive movement's agenda” and that “her labor-friendly rulings as a judge have drawn praise.”
- “Liberal advocacy organizations” pushed for Jackson to be on Biden’s list of Supreme Court nominees.
Jackson is a Democrat partisan, having worked for Obama’s presidential campaign as a poll monitor and donated to Obama.
- Jackson is a registered Democrat, and her husband donated $1,600 to Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign.

JACKSON’S RULINGS FAVOR THE LEFT

In just a few short years on the bench, Jackson repeatedly has ruled against conservative policies.
- Jackson blocked President Trump’s executive orders to hold failing federal employees accountable – a decision that the D.C. Circuit unanimously reversed.
- Jackson blocked the Trump administration from expanding its “Expedited Removal” program to deport illegal immigrants faster, absurdly saying that DHS did not consider the impact on illegal immigrants.
- A liberal immigration group even applauded Jackson because she refuses to use the term “alien” or “illegal” immigrant in her opinions.
- Jackson ruled in 2019 that former White House Counsel Don McGahn had to comply with a subpoena from Congressional Democrats, a decision an appeals judge said wrongly gave power to “unelected judges.”
In 2015, Jackson ruled in favor of Hillary Clinton aide Phillipe Reines, shielding him from having to explain why he used a private email account for official work.
Jackson has “a striking record of reversals” of her decisions by appeals courts.

JACKSON HAS A RECORD THAT INCLUDES DEFENDING TERRORISTS

Jackson worked as a lawyer for several terrorists detained at Guantánamo Bay, including a Taliban intelligence officer who was likely a leader of a terrorist cell.
- Jackson’s advocacy for these terrorists was “zealous,” going beyond just giving them a competent defense.
- Despite Jackson’s claim that she did not get to choose her clients as a public defender, she continued to advocate for Guantanamo terrorists when she went into private practice.
In 2001, Jackson was part of an amicus brief filed by several pro-abortion groups including NARAL in support of a “buffer zone” around abortion clinics that targeted the free speech rights of pro-life Americans.

JACKSON’S BACKGROUND RAISES SERIOUS QUESTIONS

Jackson is affiliated with multiple groups that raise questions about her judgment and how she would rule on the Supreme Court.
- Jackson is a member of Harvard University’s Board of Overseers, which, if she were confirmed, would pose a conflict of interest in the highly contentious Harvard race-based admissions case.
- Jackson is a member of the Cosmos Club, a private D.C. club of the Washington elite.
- Jackson served as Director of the Harvard Alumni Association when the organization planned and later cancelled a trip to North Korea where alumni were told to show “respect” for Kim Jong-II.
