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.

Remember when everyone on the Left was calling Trumps picks “radical Right-wing”...
Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Biden ignited a political firestorm when he announced that he would fill the Supreme Court vacancy created by Justice Stephen Breyer’s resignation with a Black woman.
Everyone automatically assumes someone who received a scholarship or a job due to affirmative action is unqualified (with good reason).
Slow Joe nominee will be forever saddled with the assumption she would never have gotten the position based on merit.
“Of Course, that is not a requirement to be a Justice, as Elena Kagan for one never served as a Judge.”
Susan Collins, Lindsay Graham, Judd Gregg, Richard Lugar, and Olympia Snowe were Republican Senators who voted to confirm Elena Kagan. Apparently they were fully satisfied she was qualified.
Klobuchar is offended because, according to Democrats, there is no “Far Left.” There is only a far right. The Democrats have moved the Overton Window so far Left and distorted it so badly that the desire personal freedom is “White Supremacy.”
I don’t think this is going have a happy ending, except for one thing - in the end, God wins.
She’s a Minnesota Democrat.
She’ll only leave office in a casket.
If you are going to nominate a Far-Left person, admit it.
Any time a Democrat tells me I offended them, I look at it as a successful discussion.
He was TOTALLY right about that!!
Kagen was qualified. She did serve as Solicitor General, even though the time frame was relatively short.
Good one!

***I like it. I’ll update the tagline page with it. But don’t hit it.

I find Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota to be an offensive stench on the backside of humanity...
Then go ahead and be offended. It’s your choice.
Joe has a thing for black women. He also said he was going to pick a black woman VP. Hope this one does not work out as poorly as the other race gender card one.
Klobachar made an absolute idiot of herself during the debates. She was almost less likable than Kamala. Almost.
I just prefer AA hire.
We should start calling the communists the rabid left.
GOA came out strongly against Brown-Jackson for SCOTUS. Good enough for me.
Deal with it air brain
Uh, if Biden and the Democrats picked her, she almost certainly IS far-left and will not give much consideration at all to what the Constitution actually says.
Not to mention the double discrimination of picking her.
