MODERATORS
This is why it's so fucking insane Dems keep appointing "moderates" to the SC...
Republicans are putting literal cult members, rapists, and insurrectionists on there.
And the best we get is someone who will legitimately be non biased (except for rich people, both parties pick justices biased towards the wealthy).
It’s also insane that four Democrats voted in favor of Alito’s appointment. Of all the times to reach across the aisle, they do it on the longest lasting decision they’ll make in that position.

When was the last time a democrat appointed someone to the SC?

Katanji Brown Jackson was appointed to the Supremell Court in 2022, by Democratic President Joe Biden. She replaced Stephen Breyer when he retired.
Don't worry Katanji is a black women. Black women are quite used to be completely ignored in society.
Black Women Often Ignored by Social Justice Movements
Like Merrick Garland? Basically the only guy who could have maybe made it through a confirmation hearing with a Republican-controlled Congress when Obama was in office? Someone who couldn't really be attacked on the merits, making it pretty obvious that McConnell's shenanigans were 100% political? Or are Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson moderates?
