I Don't Find Your Testimony Credible, but your 'I hate you racist crackers' body language is coming thru Lima Charley
[Breitbart] Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) told President Joe Biden’s Supreme Court nominee Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson that he did not find her testimony "credible" after the judge claimed she did not remember a child pornographer to whom she gave a light sentence.

"You know what I think?" Cotton said. "I think he got caught with child pornography again, and wouldn’t have if he had been in prison for the eight to ten years that the guidelines called for in 2013 when you first sentenced him."

On Wednesday, during day three of Jackson’s confirmation hearing, Cotton mentioned a case involving child pornographer, Wesley Hawkins, who the senator noted, "was convicted of a child pornography offense in 2013."

"The sentencing guidelines for this offense called for a sentence of 97 to 121 months, or eight to ten years," Cotton explained. "The prosecutors asked for 24 months; you sentenced him to three months."

"We’ve heard a lot about this case and your three-month sentence of Wesley Hawkins," the senator continued. "But you got another crack at him in 2019, judge. In 2019, you sent Wesley Hawkins back under conditions of confinement with the bureau of prisons for six months, with additional restrictions on his computer usage."

#1 Notice how her being an apologist for NOI leader Louis Farrakhan has not been mentioned in the hearings ?

I consider this all a Song and Dance, See my Pony show.

Look what the GOP is dealing with here:
Voting against a Female, Black (minority), Liberal, Pro-LGBTNQO, that won't even share what she considers defines a Female and to top it off with rapidly approaching Mid-Terms.

Sadly I put her odds as pretty good at being confirmed along party lines given a few senate RINO's.

But how can a career DC swamp RINO Rat handle it and still look good both ways?

Look and question toughly, then agree to do a Voice Vote to hide your vote?

#3 She is sympathetic towards Islam?
That must be why she sought to defend and release the islamists of Guantanamo prison!
I bet she supports BDS and thinks Israel is an apartheid state.

#4 ^Add to that her work defending the islamos at GITMO was pro Bono.

#6 That she won't say the lines about gender is a big tell concerning the polling of women's sports.

#7 If she does not know the definition of "woman," how can she be the first black woman on the SCROTUS?

#9 Blackburn nailed her to the wall...not that it will matter in the end. MSM will never show this exchange so people will never know just how far out there this woman is and the Senate will confirm.

#10 Isn't claiming there's a biological aspect to male vs female (don't open the "gender" can of worms) actually something the left hates?

#11 So she doesn't like women, doesn't like children, and doesn't like anyone who isn't her style Black.

And doesn't know anything.

Charming.

Enough people have been live-blogging the hearings that the NYT had to make a comment about it, and conceded she had some bad, err, tough moments.

#12 If there is no difference between a man and a woman, does that now mean my opinion on abortion now has value?

#13 She didn't say there's no difference, she just implied that she's not qualified to tell you what it is.

#14 In other words, identifying as a human being is beyond her purview. Behold the new Perfect Democrat. How dare we stand in judgement! We will be punished for our apostasy.

This is the trend I'm concerned about; only those with a certified credential are allowed to comment on a subject. Like everything The Scarecrow says should just be ignored until the end, when The Wizard hands him a diploma.

Its the tool they are using with teachers; you can't comment on public schools unless you are working for public schools, because what do you know about it?

It was the same shit with the Covid. It was like, "Warming water until it is hot to the touch will sterilize it."

"No, you need to bring it to a boil for at least five minutes."

"Oh, what do you know about it, you have a degree in hydrodynamics? You some kind of biologist? Go pray to your best friend in the sky that you don't destroy the planet with your flat earth bullshit, and I hope you die."

#16 Besoeker, excellent modification of the headline to go along with the picture chosen.

#17 I don't care about the "identifies as",
other than there's some I want to hit.
