As Rhode Islander Judge Bruce Selya put it, Judge Jackson has “the capacity to inspire by example and the force of...reason.” That is on display here today. — PolitiTweet.org

In a few minutes, I will ask questions of an accomplished, experienced, highly-qualified Supreme Court nominee in Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson. It will be an honor. — PolitiTweet.org

Such tender feelings from Putin, a man committing mass murder by military means. https://t.co/SOVM4qiZsX — PolitiTweet.org

I’d say, grab it and sort it out later in court. What’s he going to say, “I’m here to say it’s not mine”? Then why are you here? Or send in a flunky to say “It is mine”? Great, let’s see the receipts. https://t.co/PGb1m7on0P — PolitiTweet.org

The most powerful tool companies have to fight climate change – and reduce investors’ exposure to climate-related risk – is their political influence. The SEC’s failure to require disclosure of corporate political influencing activities is an enormous missed opportunity. — PolitiTweet.org

“If you have fidelity to the rule of law that is grounded in looking at only those inputs,” she said, “then I think you can rule without fear or favor.” — PolitiTweet.org

That means you can “be consistent in a way you are analyzing the issues, and you can set aside any thoughts about who is making the arguments, [and] what advantages any side might take away from your opinions.” — PolitiTweet.org

Her guiding principle is to “consistently appl[y]” the “same level of analytical rigor” to a case “no matter who or what is involved in the legal action.” — PolitiTweet.org

We heard a lot of performance theater from Republican presidential aspirants today, including vague worries about “judicial philosophy.” Well, if they actually ask her, Judge Jackson will say what she’s said before: — PolitiTweet.org

The present Court is The Court That Dark Money Built. Anonymous donations funded the Federalist Society while it housed the selection turnstile run by dark-money donors. Judge Jackson is before us on her own merit, not at the request of a secretive right-wing donor operation. https://t.co/0HBdYtyw3w — PolitiTweet.org

This is refreshing. We are holding a hearing for an accomplished and highly-qualified nominee to the Supreme Court – a nominee who came to us through a fair and honest selection process, not through a dark-money-funded turnstile. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m heading to the Judiciary Committee for a historic hearing. Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson has led a remarkable career, and today is an opportunity for the American people to see that. — PolitiTweet.org

Nice to see it catch on to hold a space in our hearts — and our planning — for outright Ukrainian victory. Victory. It has a nice ring to it. Let’s help all we can toward victory. — PolitiTweet.org

Sad to say this is totally unsurprising: “Lacking any grounds for opposition, Republicans are resorting to slime.” https://t.co/iTowaDmDIx — PolitiTweet.org

As I keep saying, this was a clash of civilizations, but the clash is rule of law v. despotism. This was the dead hand of kleptocracy reaching out to crush a modernizing neighbor, because it can’t stand the competition of rule of law. https://t.co/25ddoYcU81 — PolitiTweet.org

“Meanwhile, on the other end of the planet: ‘On Wednesday, temperatures near the North Pole catapulted 50 degrees above normal, close to the melting point.’” — PolitiTweet.org

Saw this in Politico - “Eastern Antarctica has been 70 degrees warmer than normal for three days and counting. ‘The warmth has smashed records and shocked scientists,’ report WaPo’s Jason Samenow and Kasha Patel.” https://t.co/Bph9YebFNe — PolitiTweet.org

Very soon, Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson will appear before my colleagues and me on the Judiciary Committee. She is an excellent nominee with impeccable qualifications, and I am looking forward to her hearing. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m glad to have secured $15M in our funding measure to bolster research in the push for a cure for pancreatic cancer. Bit by bit, we will move the needle. — PolitiTweet.org

Gasoline prices (and Big Oil profits) are way up. We need a windfall tax to take some of those gains and send them back to the American people. — PolitiTweet.org

First, corned beef sandwich and a Guinness at Patrick’s Pub after parade; then zeppole at Original Italian Bakery after Polisena/Langevin announcement of soccer field funds. That’s a great Rhode Island day! Happy St. Patrick’s/St. Joseph’s to all. https://t.co/SHkOZtDfAV — PolitiTweet.org
