Jasmine Crockett Attempts to Defend Ketanji Brown Jackson by Playing the Race Card, Accidentally Proves Conservatives' Point
By embracing diversity, equity, and inclusion, Democrats have started a game that, in the long run, they cannot win.
After all, decent people will not long tolerate an ideology that requires them to accept two toxic and contradictory assertions.
For instance, Wednesday on the social media platform X, Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas, a black woman who regularly obsesses over skin color, tried defending Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson by insisting that Jackson, a black woman appointed to SCOTUS on account of her sex and skin color, “had to be 10 times better than most” on account of her sex and skin color.
Needless to say, reasonable people cannot reconcile those two claims. A factor that aided a person’s advancement, in this case simply being a black woman, cannot also be the factor that forced said black woman to work harder and achieve more than others. It makes no sense.
“The meltdown over Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is truly something EVERYONE needs to pay attention to. You see, as the first & only black woman to ever serve on the court, she had to be 10 times better than most … She continues to flex her brilliance in oral arguments & many dissents,” Crockett wrote.
If by “brilliance” Crockett meant “constitutional ignorance and tyrannical inclinations,” then we agree.
“Please note that by the time a black woman ascends to a powerful position,” the race-obsessed congresswoman added, “she Definitely Earned It … if you have any questions … let’s talk about Senator, now Secretary Mullin … or please pull the resumes of some of the other justices before entering this chat … actually just don’t, it’s not a debate, these are FACTS (alternative facts = LIES).”

In January 2022, then-President Joe Biden announced that he would nominate a black woman to the U.S. Supreme Court.
“The person I will nominate will be someone with extraordinary qualifications, character, experience, and integrity, and that person will be the first Black woman ever nominated to the United States Supreme Court,” Biden said, according to C-SPAN.
Therein lies the reason that DEI must ultimately die. Decent people crave truth, so they cannot abide such toxic and obvious lies.
Crockett insisted — without evidence; she merely asserted it — that Jackson, as a powerful black woman, “had to be 10 times better than most,” and yet Biden expressly stated that he considered only black women for the nomination.
Both things cannot be true. The factor that made Jackson eligible for SCOTUS in Biden’s eyes cannot also have hamstrung her.
What about earlier in her career? Perhaps Jackson faced discrimination, for instance, in law school admissions.
Anyone who has lived in the world for the last 50 years knows how laughable that sounds. Mountains of statistical and anecdotal evidence show that educational institutions skew admissions figures in favor of “underrepresented minorities,” or URMs.
For instance, according to the test-preparation company PowerScore, law schools routinely boost URMs during the admissions process.
“Almost every school we cover shows an increased chance of admission to URM applicants, with higher boosts for higher-tiered schools,” PowerScore wrote.
Incredibly, law schools ranked in the top 14 gave URMs a 498 percent admissions boost. In related news, Jackson attended Harvard.
Of course, Jackson’s suitability for SCOTUS would not come into question had she not routinely exposed herself as a nincompoop. Even fellow female Justices Amy Coney Barrett, Elena Kagan, and Sonia Sotomayor have shown frustration with her.
The problem with DEI, therefore, is twofold.
First, it promotes people well above their level of competence.
Imagine, for instance, how many times someone dutifully shuffled former Vice President Kamala Harris through the ranks for fear of incurring “racism” or “sexism” charges should they halt her advancement on grounds of her obvious inability to say anything coherent.
Second, DEI allows its privileged beneficiaries to simultaneously and perpetually claim the status of victims.
Everyone knows that Biden appointed Jackson because of her sex and skin color. How then, when sex and skin color proved advantageous, can Crockett claim that Jackson had to work harder than others? It is manifestly ridiculous, and thinking people can see through it.
That is why Democrats have chosen a long-term loser in hitching their wagons to DEI. Racial and sexual discrimination are bad enough. But any discriminatory system that also allows its beneficiaries to invert truth by prattling on about how many obstacles they had to overcome will sooner or later repulse the masses.
In the end, if justice prevails, our descendants will surely wonder how privileged liars and hypocrites like Crockett ever existed.
