🧵 Get Ready for Day #3 of the #KBJConfirmationHearing

1/
Chair Durbin has gaveled in. After opening comments by Durbin and Grassley, Senators Osoff and Tillis will have 30 minutes.

After that every senator is entitled to 20 minutes, but he hopes they will yield back their time.

2/
Durbin said overwhelming majority of senators on both sides asked good questions and were respectful.

But he calls out some of the senators who are trying to use this hearing as a platform to try out talking points for the 2022 election.

First meeting of SCOTUS in 1790 there were nearly 700,000 enslaved people. "Neither African Americans nor women had the right to vote." Of the 115 justices 108 have been white men.

"It's not easy being the first. Often you have to be the best."

🗨️ Before ducking behind a rock, l'll own up to liking this @nytimes Editorial Board opinion.

However, I wish the survey distinguished between home, public spaces, and work.

At work few people (other than the boss or someone with tenure) are really safe to speak their mind for fear of getting fired or demoted or passed up for advancement.

2/
At home, the millions of people with abusive or controlling partners are not free to share their views with their partners. And too many children are afraid of their parents and will not talk about what's bothering them or who they are and what they feel.
