The Facts
Pres. Biden, who intends to nominate the first Black woman to the Supreme Court by the end of February, has interviewed three top candidates to replace retiring Justice Stephen Breyer.
He has interviewed Ketanji Brown Jackson of the US Court of Appeals for DC, Leondra Kruger of the California Supreme Court, and Michelle Childs, a federal SC district court judge.
The Spin
Right narrative
Biden's narrow search is racist and clearly unconstitutional; he only vowed to appoint a Black female justice for political gain on the campaign trial. He should look for the best person to nominate rather than telling 94% of Americans they're ineligible for consideration.
Left narrative
The GOP are the racists; they're attacking the nominee's qualifications without knowing her identity. They didn't have problems with the nomination process when only right-wing bigots were being considered.
