Biden picks Jackson for Supreme Court despite Clyburn's counsel to choose Childs
President Biden's choice of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson for the Supreme Court will likely please her progressive supporters, and she may even get some GOP support with her loaded resume.
But the pick may disappoint the man who saved Biden's political career — if only slightly.
House Minority Whip James Clyburn, D-S.C., enthusiastically advocated for Biden to pick Judge J. Michelle Childs to be the first Black woman on the Supreme Court. Biden had nominated Childs to the D.C. Circuit Court of appeals in December before Justice Stephen Breyer announced his retirement last month.
Despite not getting his pick, Clyburn said Jackson is an "outstanding judge" who has his "full support."
