"SNIP.......

“The president of the National Fraternal Order Of Police, one of the largest law enforcement labor organizations, backed the nomination of Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court,” Politico reports.

“It’s notable a police group would back a Democratic pick, especially an organization that previously endorsed former President Donald Trump. It’s an added surprise that the law enforcement group would throw their support behind a nominee that previously served as a public defender.”

2. I am puzzled by your post, my dear PoliticAverse.

Why does that endorsement make you not feel good? She is highly qualified.

[PoliticAverse]

3. Yes but as I hope she will be coming down on the side of restricting qualified immunity

for the police, a police endorsement is not something I would be expecting.

5. Ah, I see. That makes sense. Thanks. n/t

4. The Judge's

brother and uncle are law enforcement officers, hence the endorsement.
