Justice Ketanji Jackson Makes a Fool of Herself During Oral Arguments
MATT MARGOLIS | 2:06 PM ON DECEMBER 04, 2024

The Supreme Court is hearing arguments in U.S. v. Skrmetti, an extremely important case over state restrictions on medically unnecessary interventions, such as puberty blockers and hormone treatments, for minors experiencing gender confusion.
At issue is the constitutionality of a Tennessee law that prohibits these procedures for gender-confused kids, though the outcome of this case will have implications for 24 other states enacting similar measures, as it could pave the way for more states to outlaw these practices on kids and potentially adults as well.
“The dispute is the first in which the justices will consider the constitutionality of state efforts to regulate medical interventions for transgender youth, but it comes as Republican-led states have enacted a slew of restrictions targeting transgender individuals, including policies on sports teams and restroom access,” reports CBS News. “President-elect Donald Trump has vowed to restrict medical treatments for transgender minors and bar transgender athletes from participating in women's sports. And while the Biden administration will argue Wednesday that the Supreme Court should invalidate Tennessee's law, the incoming Trump administration could reverse the government's position once it is in power early next year.”
Oral arguments are ongoing, and we’ve already got a cringeworthy claim from Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, who was nominated to the court by Joe Biden.

She attempted to draw a parallel between banning transgender procedures for minors and banning interracial marriage during the oral arguments. Her premise was nothing short of baffling. She started by saying, “Being drawn by the statute that was sort of like the starting point, the question was whether it was discriminatory because it applied to both races and it wasn’t necessarily invidious or whatever,” before trailing off in a haze of confusion.

Yeah, this unqualified DIE hire is an total embarrassment to the Court. And, we're stuck with it for likely decades.

Her intelligence rivals Kamala's.

I thought that 'ketanji' was the name of a a Robin Williams movie about an imaginary jungle world. I'm still in awe of the names that appear from time to time on these pages, and fully expect one day to see something like DeRange or MyeOpya...

Sure wish I swallowed that mouthful of coffee before I read this, tac.

She must have appointed clerks that would not outshine her.

She was never represented as being the brightest knife in the shed

WASHINGTON (TNND) — Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson on Wednesday appeared to compare a law banning child sex change procedures to a former law restricting interracial marriage.

The comment came as the high court weighs the legality of a Tennessee law that bans gender procedures for children and whether it violates the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment.

Jackson invoked the landmark 1967 Loving v. Virginia case, in which the court unanimously ruled Virginia's laws banning interracial marriage violated the 14th Amendment. Though the state argued its law treated all races similarly, the court rejected its argument.

Jackson cited language in the Virginia laws which prohibited an individual from acting in a way that was inconsistent with their nature and compared it to language in the Tennessee law.

“When you look at the structure of that [Tennessee] law, it looks in terms of—that you can’t do something that is inconsistent with your own characteristics, it’s sort of the same thing,” Jackson said.

She continued by claiming Virginia would have been successful in defending its case if such an argument was permissible by the court.

“It’s interesting to me that we now have this different argument and I wonder if whether Virginia could have gotten away with what they did here by just making a classification argument in the way that Tennessee did in this case.”

A recording of the claim went viral on X Wednesday, earning strong reactions from conservatives.

“This is just embarrassing for the Court,” former attorney general nominee Matt Gaetz said.

“DEI is racist, immoral, anti-meritocratic, and destructive,” author John LeFevre said. “And it is unequivocally true that, by definition, Ketanji Brown Jackson is a DEI hire.”

Women’s sports activist Riley Gaines added “this is the same Supreme Court Justice who couldn't tell you what a woman is because she ‘isn't a biologist' if that tells you anything."

Jackson was appointed by President Joe Biden. She is the first Black female Supreme Court justice. The president appeared to stumble when touting Jackson's appointment in July, accidentally bestowing Jackson’s title upon himself.

“By the way I’m proud to be, as I said the first vice president, the first Black woman served with a Black president,” Biden said. “Proud of the first Black woman, the Supreme Court. There’s just so much that we can do because together we, there’s nothing. Look, this is the United States, America.”

I wish the 2020 election would be proven fraudulent and her nomination invalid.

Can someone translate this to English?

You're gonna need a bigger AI!

Ketanji-X is reaching with the pseudo logical sequence. It assumes the nature of a child is what others say and/or what the minor says. Of course minors are not intellectually developed nor are they emotionally mature enough to make that assessment. And allowing others to determine is like unto Münchausen syndrome by proxy. She has a conclusion she wants to reach and is plotting a path to get there no matter how rocky or treacherous.

It tells me everything.

I’m missing something I think. Why is this a federal issue? Shouldn’t it be a state issue?

How does someone like this get through the schooling.

To an extent, because it’s a way to make political noise about nothing. DOGE matters to an incredible extent.

Financial freedom matters to an incredible extent. It powers all other freedoms, and is the most heavily attacked.

A simple argument that “no one is permitted to sterilize or deliberately impair the fertility of a minor” puts this all to bed.

I think you already know the answer.

Is there a video of all the other justices rolling their eyes when she spoke?

Gotta be the laughingstock of the court.

I wish, no video at SCOTUS, plenty of audio though.
