By Brad Reed
Published March 21, 2022
Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) on Monday repeatedly cast aspersions on Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson's judicial record by insinuating she had a secret plan to bring critical race theory to the Supreme Court.
While addressing Jackson in her opening statement, Blackburn wasted no time tossing out red meat to GOP voters.
"You once wrote that every judge has 'personal, hidden agendas' that influence how they decide cases," she said. "I can only wonder what your hidden agenda is. Is it to let child predators back to the streets? Is it to restrict parental rights and expand government into our schools and private family decisions? Is it to support the radical left's attempt to pack the Supreme Court?"

(40,203 posts)Blackburn, like many republican women in the House and Senate along with a couple of governors, is of low intellect and low character. These mediocre people preen for the cameras, say stupid shit, and reveal themselves as the dumbass racist hate-mongers that they are. Blackburn is one of the worst. She was continually shows the world her animus towards Black people with her repeated use of dog whistles, buzz words, and overt insults.
She spends a lot of energy on her appearance, but she cant hide the ugliness that lives in her hateful heart.

What's Brett Kavanagh's hidden agenda, Marsha? Keggers on the front steps of the Supreme Court?
What's your hidden agenda, Marsha? Being named the most ignorant, bone-headed sitting Senator in the United States? There's a lot of competition for that dubious "honor", Marsha, but you have the right stuff to pull it off.
I sincerely hope the people of Tennessee send you packing, Marsha, but the level of stupidity in the American voter has surpassed yours, believe it or not.
