Dear Tennessee Sen. Marsha Blackburn: We have a question for you and your closest, disrespectful GOP colleagues.
Question: How do you define “woman”?
Answer: Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson.
Let us just say this is a time when words – even 1,000 of them – hold no candle to pictures. In your mind’s eye just think of us sending out the texting emoji of hands thrown into the air in joy, thanks and praise. Hallelujah!
But like the sports radio announcers of old, we’ll also try to help you get the picture of Thursday’s scene in the Senate chambers when Jackson, President Joe Biden’s Supreme Court nominee to fill the shoes of retiring Supreme Court Justice Stephen G. Breyer, was confirmed by the Senate.
