The Senate voted 53-47 Thursday to confirm Jackson, a U.S. appeals court judge for the D.C. district. Three Republicans – Sens. Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, and Mitt Romney of Utah – joined all 50 Democratic senators to confirm the 116th justice. She will replace retiring Justice Stephen Breyer.

    1. @Big Daddy Leroy We ALL will have to face God on the day of JUDGEMENT, even Nonbelievers, he’s the ONLY one SHE will have to FACE, and not by choice. God forgives ALL of us no matter WHAT we have DID , wrong knowingly, or unknowingly , who ask in prayer, we ALL sin and fall SHORT of pleasing him. He will EVEN forgive the Trump’s and ALL those who are racist(all colors) and HATFUL to the core. If we RECEIVED him REPENT, with FORGIVENESS we will be forgiven and RENEWED. I will NOT wish NO ONE to burn in hell for their self inficted ignorance, not EVEN those who HATES me.

    1. Why? Because she couldn’t define what’s a woman and gave offenders with child pornography the most lenient sentences?

  5. “In the poetic words of Dr. Maya Angelou, … ‘I am the dream and the hope of the slave,'”
    “In my family, it took just one generation to go from segregation to the Supreme Court of the United States. Shame on her. These things are tough. She is not even ashamed to mention she is the dream of a slave. The US didn’t have black one century ago so shame on her.
