Ketanji Brown Jackson’s husband Patrick Johnson planted a sweet kiss on top of her head at the end of Day 3 of her confirmation hearing. Ketanji definitely may have needed some consoling after a day of being grilled by GOP senators. They pushed an agenda of claiming that she’s anti-Trump, insisted on hearing her thoughts on the Kavanaugh hearings and accused her of being too lenient in cases about child pornography. Tense words were exchanged between senators of both parties, leading to an explosive day in court. Ketanji wore her signature sapphire blue color as Patrick wrapped her up in his arms.

issued a directive instructing the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services to investigate parents who have allowed their transgender-identifying children to access gender-affirming medical treatments, such as puberty blockers and hormones. Abbott based his order on an opinion by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R), who opined that gender-affirming care renders patients infertile and should be considered “abuse” because it allegedly irreversibly impacts a child’s ability to procreate.In response, the White House condemned Texas Republicans’ actions, calling them “government overreach at its worst” and charging that such actions are politically-motivated.

In his successful 2020 White House bid, candidate Joe Biden campaigned as a unifier trying to save the soul of America. Last night, in his first State of the Union address, the 46th President of the United States doubled down on that unity theme.
low approval ratings — even among people who previously voted for him in 2020 — Biden attempted to use his speech as a reset for his presidency, decrying Russia and its power-hungry President Vladimir Putin for invading Ukraine while offering praise and support for the Ukrainian resistance, and seeking to clarify his (and by extension, his party’s) positions on various domestic issues by calling for programs and bills that would make Americans’ lives easier, fight inflation, get the country back to “normal” following a two-year interruption caused by the pandemic, and calling on states and cities to deal with rising crime rates by fully funding police using money appropriated by the American Rescue Plan.But as he went through the litany of various domestic concerns, Biden seemingly hit on many of the issues and promises he had run on as a candidate for president, even though much of his priorities have been killed in the U.S. Senate, due to the inability to gain 60 votes to overcome the silent filibuster (exacerbated by the refusal of traditionalists to change Senate rules to either eliminate or reduce the 60-vote threshold, or require the minority to actively filibuster pieces of legislation, thereby calling attention to their opposition) as well as political posturing by conservative Democrats like Sens.
President Joe Biden is addressing the nation for the first time.
