President Biden nominated Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson of the D.C. Circuit to replace Justice Stephen Breyer on the Supreme Court. This is the fifth post on her nomination.

The third post provided 25 questions for Senators to ask Judge Jackson at her confirmation hearing. The fourth post analyzed the originalist and textualist records of President Trump's Supreme Court nominees.
