Biden Supreme Court Nominee Decisions Reversed for ‘Judicial Overreach’ and Other Troubling Facts – Opinion

As I wrote the headline and selected the feature image for this article, two names simultaneously popped into my head: Louisiana Sen. John Kennedy and “Texas Ted” — the new nickname assigned to Sen. Ted Cruz after he was sophomorically called “Lyin’ Ted” by one of Cruz’s fellow Republican candidates throughout the 2016 Republican presidential primaries, but I digress.

Kennedy and Cruz are the reason I thought of them, because I wait with baited breath for their respective stories. shellackingBiden nominee Ketanji brown Jackson, before the Senate Judiciary Committee in connection with Supreme Court nomination hearings. #ProTip: Popcorn. ManyOf popcorn.

Fox News reported that Jackson, Cruz and Kennedy will be questioning him along with other Republicans in the Senate Judiciary Committee over his judicial record, which includes numerous decisions overturned or reaffirmed by higher courts. Even better, as distinguished law professor Jonathan Turley told Fox, the majority of Jackson’s overturned decisions were deemed by higher courts to constitute judicial overreach.

As a judge in a district court, she has opinions. They’re quite lengthy opinions. The D.C. has retracted her decision. Circuit [Court of Appeals]In a handful of cases, she was found guilty of judicial overreach.

Fox noted that a case in 2019 involved an order by the Department of Homeland Security, which expanded DHS’s definition of who can be deported. The case of another noncitizen was also overturned. There are three options from Jackson on federal employees’ collective bargaining power.

Jackson’s DHS ruling was overturned by the D.C. Circuit Court ruled that Jackson’s DHS ruling was invalid after reviewing DHS policies. Then Jackson’s ruling on the three collective bargaining orders was overturned unanimously by the D.C. Circuit Court ruled in her favor. Neither jurisdiction was available To adjudicate the matter.

Also this,Turley’s, also equally disturbing, is even more alarming:

She’s only actually published a single decision as an appellate judge, and that came out in the last 24 hours. [This is]A win for the unions, against federal agency changes.

Four words to consider (so far), if you’re keeping score at home: Legislating from the Bench

Judicial Crisis Network president Carrie Severino previously told Fox News Digital “Judge Jackson’s record of reversals by the left-leaning D.C. Circuit is troubling for anyone concerned about the rule of law,” as transcribed by Fox.

Cases like these suggest that Jackson might be willing in politically charged cases to ignore the law to deliver a particular policy outcome, and that’s not what we want to see from a Supreme Court justice.

In a mini tweetstorm in which she correctly accused Biden of promising “unity and moderation” but delivering “radical extremism,” Servino tweeted after Biden announced Jackson’s nomination:

Expect to hear from Biden and his supporters that Judge Jackson is “in the mainstream.” That’s liberal speak for a judge who will deviate from the text of the constitution and statutes without hesitation to ensure the Left’s preferred policy outcomes.

Bingo.

Biden had campaigned for unity and moderation before he was elected. However, his radical extremist views have not changed since he was elected. Biden’s liberal dark-money friends continue to be placated by Jackson’s nomination today. /3

As Jonathan Turley, Carrie Severino, and other reputable, knowledgeable, legal experts are aware (although many of them don’t come right out and say it), those earlier four words — The bench is the best place to legislate — are paramount to the left’s support of AnyA nominee for the highest court of the country, especially a judicial nominee.

Ketanji Jackson, a black and female Ketanji Brown is a great example of this. SecondaryBiden and the Democrats, despite disingenuous pretenses to the contrary. This is demonstrated by the simple question

How many? Conservatism black female judges were on Biden’s list?

Rhetorical question. Don’t bother.
