Kennedy wrote, “Federal judges should know the difference between a law book and an L.L. Bean catalog. But Pres. Biden keeps nominating people who can’t answer basic legal questions.”
“Tell, tell me what article five of The Constitution does,” Kennedy asked Judge Chanelle Bjelkengren.
She replied, “Article 5 is not coming to mind at the moment.”
“Okay, how about Article Two?” the former attorney asked.
“Neither is Article Two.”
Carrie Severino, President of JCN, the Judicial Crisis Network posted, “Senator Durbin even congratulated Hill afterward for ‘passing the Kennedy bar exam’ – talk about grading on a curve!”
In response to Senator Dick Durbin’s comments, Kennedy noted his efforts to ask substantive questions and his party’s support for President Biden’s nominees.
“I try to be fair-minded. I voted for a number of President Biden’s nominees,” Kennedy said.
“When I think they’re qualified. And I try to ask substantive questions. I did the same thing with President Trump’s nominees, in fact we killed five of President Trump’s nominees.”
“Because… We killed them dead as four o’clock. Because it was apparent after questioning them that they didn’t know a law book from a Sears Roebuck catalog. And we killed em’.”
“And I think we, on our side of the aisle, my side of the aisle, have voted for more of President Biden’s nominees than my democratic colleagues have voted for President Trump’s nominees.”
“Now that’s okay. Everybody has one vote and they have the right to exercise it.”
“I know you don’t like some of my questions and I get that,” he said to Durbin.
“And some of your comments have been borderline snarky but I ignore them. When my son was going through puberty he used to make those comments and I learned the best thing to do was ignore them.”
