Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota said Sunday that she finds it "offensive" for Republicans to call President Joe Biden's Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson "far-left."
After "Fox News Sunday" guest host Harris Faulkner pointed out that some Republicans have taken issue with the Supreme Court pick for being "far-left," noting attorney Jonathan Turley saying recently that "this is a political deliverable, a good one for President Biden" because the other potential nominees were not as far-left, Klobuchar said the ideological term is "offensive" to her.
The Minnesota Democrat also explained that Jackson has had more experience as a judge than four of the justices currently sitting on the Supreme Court and would be just the second justice with trial judge experience should she be confirmed to the bench.

No. I don’t remember Obama saying he was going to pick a Latina female
ahead of his pick. Slow Joe was specific about who he was going to pick.
Thus affirmative action.
“The Ministry of Peace concerns itself with war, the Ministry of Truth with lies, the Ministry of Love with torture and the Ministry of Plenty with starvation. These contradictions are not accidental, nor do they result from from ordinary hypocrisy: they are deliberate exercises in doublethink”

I’m offended that she’s offended.
I’m offended that she’s offended.
It’s offensive to me that someone as far left as Klobuchar is criticizing Republicans. So what?
Obama is a bit more savvy than SlowJoe I have to believe.
Amy is such a dumbass. Amy, it is RACIS’, to call her that. Which implies offensiveness. Get it right. Sheesh!
My father once said: "in many cases describing the problem is the same as solving the problem."
He was an intellectual who was intensely skeptical of intellectuals.
The stuck pig squeals the loudest..............
I’d say the Sotomayor, the wide Latina, was the first affirmative action appointment (Unless you are limiting AA appointments to blacks only).
Klobuchar? Brown? or Both?
She’s black....
She’s far left
QED
Obama was just not stupid enough to come out and say it. But Sotomayor has proven herself to be a terrible Justice. You make a good point regarding Biden’s comment, but Sotomayor would not have gotten to SCOTUS is she was a white male.
Why is she whining about this? The Republicans will cave in the end like they always do.
Nothing of the old extreme Left is extreme to the Left anymore … they are the far Left.
Offend the worthless scum!

Offensive = true.
And so goes the legacy of the left.
Is there anything that they cannot eff up?
It’s been three days since this nomination was announced and already the DEMS are creating a media narrative. a-ME is offended, when isn’t a Democrat offended? Just wait until the race cards come out.
Leftists demand that the truth is scrubbed from our word usage and comments and history. Amy would make a fine twitter/facebook moderator.
Biden’s Identity politics latest victim.....Black Supreme Court female nominee
Ketanji Brown Jackson....... is “far-far-far left.”
Biden lives in the past, evoking the despicable political “spoils system” embraced by the left........
rewarding political loyalists and friends with government positions.
Instead of helping the government become more efficient, this nineteenth century MO led to widespread incompetence and corruption.
