 Well, the confirmation hearings for Joe Biden's Supreme Court nominee Judge Katanji Brown Jackson have begun today and Republicans have asked incredibly meaningful and substantive questions. They've acted respectful and Everything has largely gone along quite smoothly I'm obviously kidding Republicans have already made fools of themselves. They're acting like imbeciles and they're asking the dumbest questions imaginable and this is day one So for example, Marsha Blackburn is asking her about critical race theory because of course But take a look at how she asks this question You have praised the 1619 project which argues the US is a fundamentally racist country And you have made clear that you believe judges must consider critical race theory when deciding how to sentence criminal defendants Is it your personal hidden agenda to incorporate critical race theory? into our legal system These are answers That the American people need to know Questions Marsha. These are questions the American people need answers to and we don't actually because that's not a real question That's not what you ask somebody who's a nominee to be on the Supreme Court. That's that's stupid And if she had a hidden agenda Would it be hidden if she actually told you about this while it's being broadcasted? I mean, why would she reveal that she had it a hit had a hidden agenda if she actually had a hidden agenda Are you stupid? I mean, I feel like if I were Katanji Brown Jackson, it would be very difficult to bite my tongue I get that this is par for the course for Republicans They're gonna ask idiotic questions But I feel like one of these days one of these nominees is just gonna ask are you stupid? Are you fucking stupid? Are you really asking me this question if I have a hidden agenda for CRT? How's that gonna work if I'm a Supreme Court justice? Am I gonna force my colleagues in the Supreme Court to interpret the Constitution exactly as I do? Am I going to force them to view the law through the lens of critical race theory? Is that really what you're asking me senator? I mean at some point they're gonna snap somebody's got to snap. Um, I Just wow, they're so they're so stupid Republicans are incredibly Stupid their brains are just smooth if you saw it open Marsha Blackburn skull, it would be as smooth as butter It's just it's unbelievable Now um, Lindsey Graham decided to chime in and make it very very clear that he is not racist Why would he bring this up? Well in case Democrats invoke identity politics and accuse him or Republicans of being racist for asking questions that are too tough. He's just making it clear folks He's not racist. He didn't make the cut Well-lived life just completely ruined. So if you're Hispanic or African-American conservative, it's about your philosophy Now it's gonna be about the historic nature of the pick There's gonna be about your philosophy The bottom line here is when it is about Philosophy when it's somebody of color on our side, it's about we're all racist if we ask hard questions It's not gonna fly with us. We're used to it by now at least I am So it's not gonna matter a bit to any of us We're gonna ask you what we think you need to be asked and senator Holly You need to ask her about a record as a district court judge. You should I hope you do and we'll see what she says very fair game Okay Nobody asked but okay. Thank you Are you really going to ask her questions about her judicial philosophy? Are you seriously considering voting for Judge Katanji Brown Jackson? Is that is that really the case Lindsey Graham? Nobody believes you why even pretend why grandstand about how not racist you are when we know You're not seriously considering voting for her and if this isn't about identity politics or racism Just fucking ask her questions about her judicial philosophy. They are incapable of acting like adults for just five minutes They are so fucking stupid just ask her the questions about her judicial philosophy Then if this is really what it's about, but it's not about that for you You're preemptively invoking identity politics to deflect against accusations of racism When has anyone actually accused you of that is anybody saying you can't ask her questions that are serious and tough Because she's black. I just I don't understand why you went on this grandstanding rant I mean, I do I get it because you're stupid But it's just you think that he'd have some level of self-awareness to where he think I don't need to bring this up Right. Nobody's nobody's accusing me of racism. Maybe I don't bring this up But of course he is of course he is insufferable now Ted Cruz is going to chime in by plugging his podcast and by Basically complaining that she's not going to be treated as poorly as Brett Kavanaugh. So that's weird But let's listen to what he has to say This will not be the kind of character smear That sadly our Democratic colleagues have gotten very good at And it's important to note, you know a couple of years ago I was doing my weekly podcast and I was on with a Noted liberal intellectual. No one is going to inquire into your teenage dating habits No one is going to ask you with mock severity. Do you like beer? But that's not to say this hearing Should be non-substantive and non-vigorous I'll tell you what in the event. She's incredibly accused of rape Ted Cruz and those questions are relevant I think it'd be a good idea to bring it up. Yeah, but I'll be sure to check out the podcast because Who wouldn't want to listen to Ted Cruz talk for an extended period of time? I just feel like if you don't hate Republicans with every fiber of your being you're not a real American It's un-American to not hate Republicans. How can you watch that and think? These are reasonable people. These are adults. They're serious people. They care about politics They care about America. How can you watch that and have that be the takeaway? I just they're so insufferable Because they're so stupid. They're so Unserious in every single thing that they say and do every word that comes out of their mouths is so disingenuous It's almost intolerable, but yet this is one of two major political parties in the United States and not a laughing stock. I mean parties like this with Individuals who behave in this fringe way are usually very fringe political parties throughout Europe I mean that's starting to change, right? But I mean, this is just the norm. This is conservatives in America They're that stupid openly so and proudly so I Just I don't know why I'm I'm you know Pretending or insinuating that I'm surprised because this is exactly what I expected and this is only day one So I expect these confirmation hearings to be a complete shit show but I just I wanted to give you a little bit of insight into what's happening in case you're not paying close attention because there's a lot Going on in the world, right? but this is what we can expect and it's only day one so it'll only get worse and Yeah, um Imagine if judge Clarence Thomas dies. He was Admitted to the hospital with flu-like symptoms So imagine if he dies imagine the confirmation hearings for that replacement how big of a shit show that would be This is how they're acting knowing that if she is indeed confirmed Conservatives will still have a supermajority on the Supreme Court but imagine a situation where Thomas is dead and Joe Biden is having to nominate his replacement imagine how insane they'd be acting it just Republicans are just they they're children they are children both in their behavior and Level of critical thinking skills. I just so yeah, I'll keep you updated I don't really plan on following this super closely But if there is a moment that stands out to me or over its stupidity, I think that instances like that are worth highlighting but nonetheless Republicans doing what we expect them to do acting like complete fucking morons You
