Three RINOs Declare Support for Biden’s Radical Far-Left SCOTUS Nominee Jackson

Sens. Mitt Romney and Lisa Murkowski joined fellow Republican Sen. Susan Collins in declaring their intent to vote in favor of confirming Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court.

Their announcements on Monday indicate that President Joe Biden’s first pick to the high court, whose nomination is set to advance beyond the Senate Judiciary Committee after a deadlock vote, will be confirmed with at least a 53-47 vote. A simple majority is all that is needed, and all Democrats and independents are expected to back Jackson, who would be the first black woman Supreme Court justice.

“After reviewing Judge Jackson’s record and testimony, I have concluded that she is a well-qualified jurist and a person of honor,” Romney, a Utah Republican, said in a statement. “While I do not expect to agree with every decision she may make on the Court, I believe that she more than meets the standard of excellence and integrity.”

“After multiple in-depth conversations with Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson and deliberative review of her record and recent hearings, I will support her historic nomination to be an Associate Justice on the U.S. Supreme Court,” Murkowski, who hails from Alaska, said in a tweet.

Collins, a centrist GOP senator from Maine, said she plans on supporting Jackson last week.

A final confirmation vote in the full Senate could happen as early as this week.
