Ketanji Brown Jackson once told Congress under oath she could not define the word woman.
That answer made her a hero to the Left.
Essence Magazine just named her the People's Champion.
A Title That Requires a Definition
Essence Magazine is the Left's cultural bulletin board, and this month Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson gets the crown: "The People's Champion."
Think about what that title requires.
A People's Champion fights for the people.
KBJ just finished fighting against them.
The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that states can ban biological males from competing in women's sports – one of the most commonsense rulings in years.
Six justices stood with America's daughters.
Ketanji Brown Jackson did not.
Jackson filed her own dissent, arguing that transgender athletes suffer discrimination "on the basis of sex" because they are categorized by the biology they were born with.
She insisted that Title IX must "make room for individuals to live in the gender they choose."
This from the justice who cannot tell you what "sex" means.
At her 2022 Senate confirmation hearing, Sen. Marsha Blackburn asked a simple question: "Can you provide a definition for the word 'woman'?"
Jackson's answer: "No. I can't. I'm not a biologist."
Essence crowned a Supreme Court justice "The People's Champion." She is a justice who cannot define the people she claims to champion – and just voted against their daughters on the most consequential women's sports case in Supreme Court history.
She Said Her Job Is to Use Her Voice
KBJ has made clear what she believes her job is.
At a Bar Association luncheon, Jackson told the crowd she had no intention of staying quiet from the bench.
Her voice.
Supreme Court justices don't have a voice. They have a Constitution.
Their job – the only job – is to read that document and apply it as written.
Not to be anyone's champion.
Not to "use their voice" for the causes progressive magazine editors love.
The Constitution doesn't give justices a platform. It gives them a job. They don't run for office, they don't campaign for causes, and they don't need cover stories in Essence Magazine.
Jackson has rejected that definition of the job.
And the Left doesn't celebrate her in spite of it – they celebrate her because of it.
She is a reliable vote for whatever the radical left demands, dressed in Supreme Court robes.
Every single time a Democrat agenda item reaches her desk, she delivers.
Democrats Are Promising a Court Full of Her
The Essence cover isn't a magazine feature. It's a roadmap.
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley sounded the alarm: Democrats are openly demanding the Supreme Court be expanded from nine justices to thirteen.
Four new seats. Filled by whoever wins the next presidential election.
Kamala Harris already called it part of a "no bad ideas brainstorm."
House Democratic leadership said "everything is on the table."
Picture that table.
Thirteen justices instead of nine – the four new ones handpicked for maximum ideological reliability, the way KBJ was handpicked to deliver guaranteed liberal votes, not independent legal judgment.
A Supreme Court stacked with Ketanji Brown Jackson clones – justices who can't define "woman," who vote to flood women's sports with biological males, who believe the bench exists so they can "use their voice."
That isn't a court. That's a political action committee with lifetime appointments.
FDR tried this exact power grab in 1937. Congress – including his own Democrats – rejected the scheme as "needless, futile, and utterly dangerous."
Nearly ninety years later, Democrats are back at it.
And their face is on the cover of Essence Magazine.
"The People's Champion."
The people's daughters just won the biggest legal battle in the history of women's sports.
Ketanji Brown Jackson voted against them.
That's your People's Champion.
