Biden Says Republicans ‘Verbally Abused’ Supreme Court Nominee

President Joe Biden ignored Democrats’ previous mistreatment of Justice Kavanaugh when he made the comments at the White House on Friday.

According to The Hill:

Biden acknowledged that he anticipated the confirmation process would be “painful” for his nominee but said that the GOP questioning of Jackson during her hearings last month exceeded his expectations.

“I have to tell you, what Judge Jackson was put through was well beyond that. It was verbal abuse — the anger, the constant interruptions, the most vile and baseless assertions and accusations,” he said.

Jackson faced some harsh lines of questioning about her sentencing in certain child pornography cases and about critical race theory from GOP Sens. Josh Hawley (Mo.) and Ted Cruz (Texas), respectively, during her confirmation hearings.

Biden on Friday also appeared to be referring to Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who frequently interrupted Jackson during one of the hearings.

Democrats have accused Republicans of unfair, baseless and racist attacks against Jackson, who will be the first Black woman to serve on the Supreme Court when she is officially sworn in later this year.

Does this crooked old racist buffoon even remember how he tried to humiliate and destroy Clarence Thomas’ life when he was in charge of his confirmation as the chairman of the judiciary committee?
Don’t forget, China Joe, there’s three fingers pointing back at ‘cha.

What comes to mind is Judge Kavanaugh confirmation. They quickly sweep this under the rug while claiming the Republicans are the evil ones. Baloney. Look in a mirror.

Those two crooks tag teamed Clarence Thomas. Ted is warming up a special place for China Joe ‘cause it won’t be too much longer till they’ll be back together. Good riddance.

Our Puppet-In-Chief is just following the Marxist orders of those mysterious someones he has at least three times said he, Great And Mighty Leader Of The Free World, “does not want to get in trouble with.”
Otherwise, senile Slow Joe would be wandering around enjoying an ice cream while wondering where he is at.

Joe Biden thinks Judge Brown was verbally abused by Republicans. I guess he does not remember the last two Justices that Trump nominated. The Democrats chewed them up and spit them out. I believe they even tried to set them up so they would not voted for.

Which is worse? Biden as a pedophile or Republicans saying verbal abuse? Dumb as usual Biden!

What about the verbal abuse from Dems on an almost daily basis, too? Yes, Jackson got called on here positions & actions, rightly so, but that was not verbal abuse; it was vetting as it should be conducted.

Jackson got off LIGHT all considered; her non-responsive “word salad answers” & refusal to define a woman (HOW can she claim to be something she can’t define, & expect rational adults to believe her???); her history of bench activism, & letting pedophiles off to damage MORE children, etc, warranted much harsher handling. No one personally attacked her, or accused her of crimes she never committed, as happens to Repub appointees regularly. No one even addressed the fact she’s just another unqualified affirmative action appointee who never had any business on any bench.

A radical leftist shouldn’t complain about “verbal abuse” in her Supreme Court confirmation hearing. Biden’s nomination of her wasn’t reasonable.
