On Friday morning, media reports said President Biden would nominate D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to replace Stephen Breyer on the U.S. Supreme Court. Brown — who previously defended a Guantanamo Bay detainee — has received plenty of support from the left in the past year. Most notably, endorsement came from MSNBC’s The ReidOut host Joy Reid, who’s called her “wonderful” and said they knew each other in college.

Reid covered Jackson’s appeals court nomination back on March 30, 2021, boasting it “cement[ed] Jackson’s front-runner status for the Supreme Court” and a contrast to the “barely qualified, white male ideologue judges that Donald Trump and his Senate henchman Mitch McConnell rammed through.”
