Host / other voice“despite his longstanding endorsement of a colorblind constitution, Justice Thomas now surprisingly suggests that the citizenship clause was a race-conscious remedial measure relating only to freed slaves such as Dred Scott and those who shared with them certain characteristics.”
Speaker unverified“she basically said for certain people being born on U.S. soil is not going to be enough to confer citizenship. But she says the 14th Amendment should forever be the death knell for that kind of claim.”
Speaker unverified“You obviously have permanent allegiance based on being born in whatever country you're from. That's what everybody recognizes. But you also have local allegiance when you are on the soil of this other sovereign.”
Host / other voice“What the hell did she just say? This was from earlier this week oral arguments in the birthright citizenship case that is so extremely important to everything we just talked about earlier on with angel parent Joe Abraham.”
Host / other voice“you look at Ketanji Brown Jackson, and she doesn't know what the hell a woman is. You can't say it because she's not a biologist, is what she said. And I happen to think she's a very stupid person. And that's a byproduct of DEI, which is basically a three-letter word for loser. She's a loser and a stupid person.”
Host / other voice“this Ketanji Brown Jackson, I mean, this woman is insane. I mean, she said that she was on the losing end of an eight to one vote. Even Kagan and Sotomayor voted against her on the Colorado counselor's case, where she said, oh, we have to go with the scientific consensus.”
Host / other voice“Where does Ketanji Brown Jackson rank when it comes to least qualified Supreme Court justices of your life? Is there even someone that you would put in a matchup against her? Because every time we have an oral argument, I just look around that I'm like, she doesn't even sound like she has the remotest clue of the issues that are at stake.”
Host / other voice“Ketanji Brown Jackson was the sole dissent. Now, I realize that when you question Ketanji Brown Jackson Ketanji Brown Jackson, and point out that she is a blithering idiot, you are called a racist, because that is the only argument people who want to defend Ketanji Brown Jackson have is that she's black, and if you don't like her, it must be because you're racist, as opposed to this woman is a low-grade moron who should not be on the Supreme Court because she might be the dumbest person to have ever been put on the United States Supreme Court.”
Host / other voice“I think the last curse of the Joe Biden era is unfortunately going to be with us for a generation plus, which is he put a wholly unqualified far left wing politician, not a judge, far left wing politician on the court.”
Host / other voice“Ketanji Brown Jackson, the only liberal progressive dunce that doesn't belong in the Supreme Court once again, says, well, this means that the states are not allowed to regulate health care in her view.”
Host / other voice“Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson was the lone dissenter. Oh, no, we've got to ban speech based on viewpoint, she says, because she went to Harvard Law School and to Harvard undergrad where the left sunk their teeth into her, and she's a mental case.”
Ketanji Brown Jackson“Imagine a polite asylum seeker who wants to do everything by the book, he approaches the border, but does not cross precisely because the law says you are not supposed to enter the United States without authority. Why on earth would Congress have intended or meant for his asylum request to be discarded, not taken seriously, not entertained, but someone who manages to enter the United States unlawfully, when the law says you're not supposed to do it and requests asylum gets their application entertained.”
