[See NewsBusters for more.] During a break in the Ketanji Brown Jackson confirmation hearings, CNN senior legal analyst Laura Coates continued her tradition of praising everything Jackson does while also accusing Sen. Lindsey Graham of trying “to educate the first black woman to be nominated to the Supreme Court.”
Coates, who thinks that Jackson has descended from Mount Olympus, recapped the opening part of day two’s hearings, “I think she's doing phenomenally well…she is phenomenally talented in what she is doing. Of course, it’s her fourth time being before the Judiciary Committee so she's well aware of the stakes and what needs to be done in order to make sure that she's conveying her intellect in a way that is persuasive, that is compelling and really showcases what she's all about.”
