Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is not pleased with her judicial colleagues’ ruling that Harvard and the University of North Carolina’s affirmative action admissions programs are unconstitutional.
“With let-them-eat-cake obliviousness, today, the majority pulls the ripcord and announces ‘colorblindness for all’ by legal fiat,” Jackson insisted in her dissent in the UNC ruling. “But deeming race irrelevant in law does not make it so in life. And having so detached itself from this country’s actual past and present experiences, the Court has now been lured into interfering with the crucial work that UNC and other institutions of higher learning are doing to solve America’s real-world problems.”
Jackson’s assertion that the Students for Fair Admissions decision is “truly a tragedy for us all” is not the least bit surprising considering that her ascent to the bench reeked of race-based choosing.
No matter how hard the left tries to paint Jackson’s rise as “monumental,” there’s no denying that the Biden administration handed Jackson a position in the highest court in the land based on her sex and race.
Even before he became president, Biden made it clear that nominating a black woman to Supreme Court was a top priority. When the time came to fill a spot on the bench, Biden did not offer a list of potential SCOTUS picks.
Instead, he reaffirmed his commitment to nominating someone based on her chromosomes and skin color.
