Who is Ketanji Brown Jackson?

Subscribe to Case in Point: The Legal Show on the Hottest Legal Cases in Politics and CultureSubscribe

In this special episode, your hosts moderate a three-way discussion all about Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson's nomination. But first, we have some news about the lawsuit challenging the Texas heartbeat law and one opinion in a criminal-law case that sounds more like a law school exam than a real fact pattern. After discussing those developments, your hosts welcome Carrie Severino of The Judicial Crisis Network, Ed Whelan of the Ethics & Public Policy Center, and John Malcolm of The Heritage Foundation to discuss Judge Jackson's judicial philosophy (or lack thereof), how Republican Senators should approach her confirmation hearing, whether she'd have to recuse from the Harvard racial preferences case, and much more.

As mentioned in the episode, we'd greatly appreciate if you filled out a short survey to let us know how we can improve the show!
