Once upon a time, there was a U.S. Constitution. Then came progressive U.S. Supreme Court Judge Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, sashaying in with dissents so dramatic they make Broadway look understated. She’s now the Court’s leading dissenter – 24 dissents this term (according to the Washington Post) – showing that unchecked judicial power is an “existential threat” to democracy.
Her latest opus? A fiery 15-page rant against an 8–1 Supreme Court ruling that said, yes, a sitting president can fire executive branch officials. But since Trump is president, she’s not going to make a judicial ruling on facts, law and the Constitution. She’s going to make her decision on her personal feelings about what she thinks Trump should and shouldn’t be able to do.
Instead of focusing on the case in front of her, Brown has been focusing on Trump in her rulings (no big surprise for a member of the TDS crowd). One of the many things she said about this case: “For some reason, this Court sees fit to step in now and release the President’s wrecking ball at the outset of this litigation. In my view, this decision is not only truly unfortunate but also hubristic and senseless.”
Shocked by Brown’s recent behavior, Justice Amy Coney Barrett issued the judicial equivalent of a mic drop, responding that Jackson’s dissent in the birthright case was completely untethered from actual law. She said, “more extreme still,” that Jackson’s opinion “is at odds with more than two centuries’ worth of precedent, not to mention the Constitution itself.”
Brown and the rest of the justices had two oaths that they took when they were confirmed to be a Supreme Court Justice. Number one, the Constitutional oath: “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”
Number two, the judicial oath: “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will administer justice without respect to persons, and do equal right to the poor and to the rich, and that I will faithfully and impartially discharge and perform all the duties incumbent upon me as [title] under the Constitution and laws of the United States. So help me God.”
Brown is adhering to neither oath.
Instead, the Supreme Court’s resident drama queen (A DEI appointment by Joe Biden as the nation’s first Black female justice ) is tossing out dissents like glitter at a pride parade. With 24 dissents this term, she’s not just dissenting – she’s auditioning for the role of Social-Justice Avenger.
At 54, Jackson’s got decades to keep flinging her sparkly dissents, each one a love letter to the progressive hive mind. Her fans call her a visionary while her critics label her a feelings-first firebrand who’d rather rewrite the Constitution than read it. With all of the impeachment articles that the Dems have brought up against Trump, I think it’s seriously time for the Republicans to bring up ones against Brown. We don’t need a judge who puts her feelings ahead of actual justice.
