The laughingstock of the world is what this idiot administration is. No wonder Putin launched his attack on Ukraine with these dolts in charge.
When asked during a press briefing on Monday about his reaction to the nomination hearings for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson in the Senate last week, President Joe Biden said he hadn't seen any of the proceedings. On Tuesday, March 22, White House Deputy Press Secretary Chris Meagher said that Biden had "watched portions of Judge Jackson's hearing yesterday and today and is proud of the way she is showcasing her extraordinary qualifications..."
Did Biden watch some of the hearings or not? If he did watch them, why did he tell reporters on Monday he hadn't? If he didn't watch them, who made the statement on his behalf saying that he did and expressing his view on the proceedings?
On Monday, Biden was asked by a reporter "did you get any chance to watch much of the Judiciary Committee hearing?"
"I didn't get a chance to see any of it," Biden responded.
"The fact that Republicans were questioning Judge Jackson on matters like former sentences related to child pornography cases, or the definition of a 'woman.' Does that as the former chairman of the Judiciary Committee makes sense to you?" The reporter continued. Biden said that Jackson was qualified and would be "a great addition to the court."
But it was just last Tuesday that Biden's Deputy Press Secretary claimed that Biden had not only watched the hearings, but had detailed comments based on a close watching of certain aspects, including the questioning of Jackson by many GOP senators about her lenient sentences for child pornographers. The questioning about this went on for days and took up the time of multiple senators.
"The President watched portions of Judge Jackson's hearing yesterday and today and is proud of the way she is showcasing her extraordinary qualifications, her experience and her even-handedness, her dedication to following the facts, the law and our Constitution as an independent judge is clear," Meagher said on Tuesday Biden's behalf.
