Samuel L. Jackson Rips Uncle Clarence Thomas On Twitter
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Mark Reinstein / Getty Samuel L. Jackson had a biting question via social media for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas after the judge made a call to overturn rights concerning same-sex marriage and contraception. The actor’s angry question came in the wake of the Supreme Court voting to eliminate access to abortion by a 6-3 vote, overturning the landmark decision in the 1973 Roe V. Wade case. In an opinion related to the vote, Thomas wrote that the same argument behind the majority opinion that abortion was not protected by the 14th Amendment of the Constitution could be applied in the future to overturn decisions that granted people the right to same-sex marriage and using contraception. In response to that news, Jackson sent out a tweet on Friday (J...

The opinion, if it stands by the end of the SCOTUS term in June would also overturn the decision in Planned Parenthood V. Casey. In the draft which was apparently published...
Sen. Tim Scott Trends For Not Voting To Confirm Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Bill Clark / Getty While the nation’s focus should be on the fact that Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is the first Black woman to ascend to the U.S. Supreme Court bench, political theater takes center stage once again. Sen. Tim Scott, the Senate’s lone Black Republican Party member, elected not to vote to confirm Justice Brown Jackson, prompting Scott’s name to trend on Twitter. Justice Brown Jackson’s confirmation vote enjoyed full support from all Democratic Party senators along with independents Sen. Bernie Sanders and Sen. Angus King; Sen. Mitt Romney, Sen. Susan Collins, and Sen. Lisa Murkowski were the only votes from GOP senators. Justice Brown Jackson faced grueling questions from GOP members of the Senate Judiciary Committee during hearings ...
Tucker Carlson Shamelessly Asks Why President Biden Didn’t Share Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s LSAT Score
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Kent Nishimura / Getty Tucker Carlson seemingly enjoys nothing more than stirring up some nonsense theory to discredit anything that stands in opposition to his narrow-minded views. The Fox News host took aim at President Joe Biden by shamelessly asking why didn’t he share the LSAT score of U.S. Supreme Court justice nominee Judge Kentanji Brown Jackson. During a Wednesday night (March 2) broadcast, Carlson turned his attention towards President Biden’s nomination of Brown Jackson and stated that the American people should know if she is, in his words, a “once in a lifetime legal talent” as if her rise to the top was some kind of fluke. What makes this especially heinous on Carlson’s part is that Brown Jackson has been vetted by GOP superstars like ...
