​​Sen. Susan Collins said President Biden’s “clumsy” handling of filling a Supreme Court ​vacancy ​with ​his pledge to nominate ​a black woman has politicized the high court.

​Collins (R-Maine) said she believes the Supreme Court — which will soon be missing retiring Justice Stephen Breyer — would benefit from some diversity.

I do feel so sorry for the gal. I can hear Ted Cruz asking her questions like DO YOU THINK IF YOU WERE WHITE, WOULD THE PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN STILL HAVE ASKED YOU TO SERVE ON THE SUPREME COURT? Her answer..no.. Then Ted Cruz replies, DOESN;T THIS SEEM IN ITSELF RACIST?

I was really hoping this time that Somoans, or female asians would finally be represented

Thank you, Senatress Obvious.

Is it legal to pick someone because of their race or gender or Religion?

President Joe Biden has pledged to nominate the first black woman to the Supreme Court, but he seems to have forgotten about the time he filibustered a black woman judge’s nomination to America’s second-highest court for two years.

Way back in 2003 through 2005, when Joe Biden was still a Democrat senator from Delaware, President George W. Bush nominated Janice Rogers Brown to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, but due to her conservative views, Joe Biden and the Democrats filibustered her nomination, blocking a final vote on her confirmation. Bush nominated Brown for the District of Columbia Circuit in 2003 after she served as a justice on the California Supreme Court since 1996; she did not get confirmed until June 8, 2005. Newsweek provided more background on her conservative legal views:

The real problem with the Democrat selections fir the Supreme Court is that they don’t follow the law. They twist the law to get desired outcomes.

She is a white Maxine Waters.

[Secret Agent Man]

She says this because it will make her look worse when she votes for the black female. Takes away whatever credible cover she would try to hide behind.

[MagillaX]

Hmm, I wonder if this pick is a question mark for the wacko leftists.

Susan Collins is a Dinosaur and needs to retire......

[caww]

This country at all levels is behaving like a wild bucking horse and if anyone thinks the old and frail demented Biden is going to ride this horse into submissiveness has another thing coming. ......
