Last week, The Washington Post published an op-ed by a distressed professional clown who was deeply offended that Donald Trump was counted among his merry band. In other words, leftists love to call Trump “a clown.” Clearly, though, all of the Left’s acolytes are clowns, and no one is more clownish these days than Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson.
Three years ago, the Joe Biden-appointed jurist infamously claimed during her confirmation hearing that she couldn’t define what a woman is because she’s “not a biologist.” More recently, in the Trump v. CASA decision last month, the justice’s dissenting opinion used the meme phrase “wait for it” and asserted that the judiciary had to act in order to restrain a monarchical executive branch. It was so bad that Justice Amy Coney Barrett addressed it in withering terms in her own opinion for the majority.
However, KBJ has hit an even newer low. So low, in fact, that Justice Sonia Sotomayor — a Barack Obama appointee and fellow DEI hire — joined the majority, leaving Jackson alone in her opinion. Last week, SCOTUS affirmed the constitutionality of President Trump’s executive order to downsize the federal workforce. Naturally, Jackson’s opinion was emotional and not based on legal theory. Her bone to pick was with the policy and not the law, which is out of her job description as a Supreme Court justice.
Sotomayor’s concurrence with the majority opinion called out Jackson for her failure to grasp the topic at issue. She wrote:
I agree with Justice Jackson that the President cannot restructure federal agencies in a manner inconsistent with congressional mandates. Here, however, the relevant Executive Order directs agencies to plan reorganizations and reductions in force “consistent with applicable law” … and the resulting joint memorandum from the Office of Management and Budget and Office of Personnel Management reiterates as much.

All this definitely prompts an astute person to wonder: Is Jackson not intellectually capable of performing her duties as a justice on the nation’s highest court? Or is she so hell-bent on pushing her leftist dogma that she ignores the law? KBJ graduated magna cum laude from Harvard. This is a terrible look for both Jackson and Harvard.
It’s also worth noting that Jackson is the most loquacious of the justices. In her first eight arguments, she had 6,500 more words than Coney Barrett, who is in second place. She also uttered more words than all the male justices combined. As she herself admits, she wants to tell people how she feels about issues.

But as William Shakespeare, the Bard and word master himself, once penned, “Brevity is the soul of wit.” Just because a person utters a plethora of words doesn’t mean he or she is saying anything of consequence or intelligence. In contrast to KBJ’s garrulous tendencies, Justice Clarence Thomas says the least and is widely regarded as the most intelligent and formidable of all the justices.
On paper, Jackson should be more astute and legally canny than she is proving to be. Biden’s blundering DEI hire is on the Court until she dies or resigns. When even Obama’s DEI hire is annoyed with the vacuous opinions of her partisan fellow traveler, one can only expect more absurdities to come.
