Oh boy. This is rich……
Historic nomination, please. I'm sorry but only black women were considered for this job appointment. She's free to tear up but it hard to consider that part of it any kind of achievement.
Senator Cory Booker thank you. I was watching how they kept asking Justice KBJ questions that she already answered several times and figured out they did not want the answer to their own questions. They just wanted to break her but she stand and with stand. I kept saying in a prayer for Justice KBJ that if God is with you who could stand against you. May God continue to bless and be with Justice Jackson.
All he’s sees is color. Booker is a racist.
Booker: I see my words have brought u to tears Ketanji. May I offer u my pocket handkerchief??
Ketanji: Sure. But I don’t have tears in my eyes I just really need to blow my nose.
Booker is so excited about a Black Woman’s nomination to the Supreme Court regardless of qualification, he came three times before completing his random babbling.
Surprised he didn’t ask her out on a date.
Cruz, Hawley, Gram and McConnell are everything wrong with America. There are others, but those isn't about cases and child pornagraphy. This is about Mrs. Jackson's skin color. It's absolutely sad that we still have people that are too ill to appreciate everything and everyone in this life.
Thank you Cory Booker..America needed to hear that!
Cory Booker a couple of months ago a black teenager was fighting with a white teenager in your state of New Jersey the policeman took the black teenager down while the white teenager was allowed to sit on a chair. They both were fighting :why didn't you call it out and say something. You all want the black vote but you don't work for them you work for yourselves.
LOL!!! Theater!!!
So many trolls in the comments even though both sides are rooting for her. It was a joy to see Booker so excited for Jackson.
Wow that was beautiful!
i watch debate this was bulky mayor pete till he got mad and he was better than them all for some one first try
look at this guy another no good in the debate sitting in senior dumb has they come mayor pete told him off he shut up fast
Aint nothin gonna get done now 💯 lol
Her seat already awaits.
booker is a great actor – he should get a nomination for oscar. he is full of it.
Senator Booker revealed the experiences of many African American professionals. I am still the only person of color in my department of 40 people. Yes, I am a tenured professor. I have been the only chocolate chip in the cookie on almost every job that I have had (before and after earning my PhD in American Literature). While staff members of every race stopped by my office to express their delight and pride in my accomplishments, I thought about those who were denied the opportunities that I earned. While we celebrate this historic moment, remember those who were denied entry. Keep them with you as you live a life that they could never imagine being possible.
Pretty much a fan girl posing as a Senator. Big difference from how he approached Kavanaugh. He never asked her a thing about prior decisions. Then says that only people of color clean the places that he works at.
CORNY BOOKER IS SO CRINGEWORTHY.
Another Black woman was nominated for the DC court years ago and Biden back then would not endorse her. This is all politics. As Biden has said if you’re not for his agenda and you are Black “you’re not black.” In the Democratic Party if you don’t vote Democrat you’re not Black. Now they are denying the color of a person. Thought Democrats believed in science as they keep telling us!
Cory Booker was at one time looked at as a rational, moderate person who could possibly throw his hat in the ring for the nomination for president. But he's turned in to a crazy, partisan whack job.
Textbook definition of STUPIDITY! History will record that a fool pretending to be a United States Senator was unable to make a RATIONAL DECISION but would instead place a Justice on The Supreme Court of The United States of America because she "looks like my mother". Let this be a deadly warning of the absolute mortal danger that is coming to White Americans.
Choose your side that is Ok but Many of these great scholars in the Senate or US congress do know quite a lot !
It’s just that they have chosen to Major in Acting for the Mainstream media and even some are using Deception and Manipulation in order to get ahead
We all have tears in our eyes.. trust me. I wondered if he could define a women?
How are black people not cringing to death by the millions over this lousy performance?
This woman is over rated cause she’s black
