Biden is taking an awful lot of credit for being the first President to nominate a Black female to the Supreme Court of the United States. Mainstream media and Democrats are trying to spin a narrative that Republicans are against Ketanji Brown Jackson’s nomination solely because she is Black, which is a disgusting and perverted lie.

In today’s world, when Biden is President and also recently served as vice president, he calls the filibuster a “relic of the Jim Crow era.” But that was not the Biden of the past. In fact, Biden was quite fond of the filibuster, including for, you guessed it, a Black female to be nominated to the Supreme Court.

George W. Bush nominated Judge Janice Rogers Brown to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. The D.C. Circuit “is considered the country’s second-most important court, and has produced more Supreme Court justices than any other federal court” reports The Washington Post.

Biden and his fellow Senate Democrats filibustered her nomination, and many of Bush’s circuit court nominees. Columnist Robert Novak called the situation “the first full scale effort in American history to prevent a president from picking the federal judges he wants.”

Bush nominated Brown again in 2005 and she was eventually confirmed by a vote of 56 to 43. It was Biden’s second time voting against her nomination. When Sandra Day O’Connor announced her retirement, opening up a spot on the Supreme Court, Rogers was on Bush’s short list to be her replacement.

Not so fast declared Biden, who used the filibuster he now purports to be a Jim Crow era move. Biden went on CBS’s “Face the Nation” and warned that if Bush nominated Brown for the Supreme Court, she would face filibuster.

“I can assure you that would be a very, very, very difficult fight and she probably would be filibustered” said Biden. What Biden proposed was to make Brown, a Black woman, the first in history to have her nomination killed by filibuster. Bush eventually nominated Samuel A. Alito Jr. to the court.

    Why won’t anyone in the reporters’ pool ask Jen Psaki or Bien, if he would take questions, this very thing?

    Lest we forget, many months prior to the invasion of Ukraine, Biden called pUtin a “killer”. Real smart way to find common ground for a possible pathway to peace. TOO LATE.

    Thanks for this history that Biden and US media apparently have forgotten or overlooked or wrote off because it involved Appeals Court rather than SCOTUS.

At a recent rally in Iowa, former President Donald Trump promised that if elected again in 2024, he would invoke the Alien Enemies Act to enable widespread deportation of migrants who have illegally entered the United States. Since President Joe Biden took office in January of 2021, over 6 million people have illegally entered the country.

Republican Representative Andy Biggs from border state Arizona, which is among the states suffering the greatest consequences from the Biden administration policies, lamented that Trump’s suggestion will be “necessary.”

Speaking on the Just the News, No Noise” television show, Biggs stated “[I]t’s actually gonna have to be necessary.” Biggs then added his thoughts on how many more people will continue to cross the border under Biden: “Because by the time Trump gets back in office, you will have had over 10 million, in my opinion, over 10 million illegal aliens cross our border and come into the country, under the Biden regime.”

“And so when you start deporting people, and removing them from this country, what that does is that disincentivizes the tens of thousands of people who are coming,” Biggs went on. “And by the way, everyday down in Darién Gap, which is in Panama… over 5,000 people a day. [I] talk[ed] to one of my sources from the gap today. And I will just tell you, those people that you’ve seen come come in to Eagle Pass, over 7,000 in a three day period, most of those two weeks ago, were down crossing into the Darién Gap.”

“And those people… make their way up and they end up in the Eagle Pass [Texas], Del Rio area,” he continued. “So if you want to disincentivize them, you remove them from the country, which is why they remain in Mexico policy was so doggone effective at slowing down illegal border crossings.”
