GQP senator calls for probe into Ketanji Brown Jackson attending Grammys
by Ryan Mancini - 02/06/26 4:07 PM ET

Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) called for an investigation Thursday into Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson for attending the Grammy Awards, where various artists criticized Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Jackson was nominated in the Best Audio Book, Narration and Storytelling Recording category for her memoir “Lovely One.” The Grammy award went to the Dalai Lama for “Mediations: The Reflections of His Holiness the Dalai Lama.”

“Americans deserve a Supreme Court that is impartial and above political influence,” Blackburn wrote on social platform X. “When a Justice participates in such a highly politicized event, it raises ethical questions. We need an investigation into Justice Jackson’s ability to remain impartial.”

Blackburn also sent a letter to Chief Justice John Roberts “to conduct a thorough investigation” into the ethics of Jackson’s attendance at the award show and her “ability to remain impartial with respect to immigration matters that come before the Court.”

It was not a political event and she was a nominee for fuck's sake!

Marsha, hunny, all that hairspray seems to have permanently cast your brain in so much lacquer that you probably can't even remember your own name half the time, it surely makes you look like the dumbest broad in the party for the day every time you speak.

I wonder what kind of dastardly shit could be dredged up about your activities off the clock. Funny how we don't know very much about you and your sycophancy to the orange make-up king.

When Democrats are back in power don’t be surprised when investigations into Thomas and Kavanaugh begin.

Dumb ass.

For them it is all war games against the opposition and anything is fair. They only care about winning and holding on to power.

They have NO CLUE on how to properly govern a free society. This is why I get so pissed and triggered when folks bash Democrats for failing on messaging (i.e. being performative) and doing nothing. It never occurs to these myopic morons that the Dems are TOO DAMNED BUSY trying to make things happen under unfathomable conditions (e.g. staying elected, contrarians on the other side, etc.).

Democratic politicians often get far too much criticism from Democratic voters. Compared to republicans, most of them work above and beyond, yet they get little credit for all they do. Nothing is ever good enough according to the MSM and voters.

The same standards are rarely applied to republican politicians who have quite an open history of corruption, deceit, and self-dealing. I am amazed that so many Democrats stay in politics - it is truly a thankless job.
