Republicans' crusade against the transgender community was on full display during the Senate Judiciary Committee's confirmation hearings of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, whom President Joe Biden nominated to the United States Supreme Court in the wake of Justice Stephen Breyer's imminent retirement.

One particularly viral moment came during far-right Senator Marsha Blackburn's questioning of Jackson, when Blackburn demanded Judge Jackson define the word "woman," hoping to hear the accomplished judge parrot the flawed biological essentialism used to define the word in GOP circles.


Watch below.

Jackson responded:

"Senator, in my work as a judge, what I do is I address disputes. If there is a dispute about a definition, people make arguments and I look at the law and decide."

Jackson was chastised by the right, who erroneously claimed she doesn't know what a woman is, and her answer was shared to support their lies that women are supposedly being erased by the transgender community.

At a recent even, far-right Congresswoman and prominent conspiracy theorist Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia alluded to Jackson's answer to the bizarre question, then promoted her own antiquated views of how women should be perceived.

Watch below.

Greene was met with applause after telling supporters:

"I'm gonna tell you right now what is a woman. This is an easy answer. We are a creation of God. We came from Adam's rib. God created us with his hand. We may be the weaker sex, we are the weaker sex, but we are our partner, our husband's wife."

Claims that a celestial being created women from the extracted rib of the first man to ever exist aside, Greene's antiquated assertion that women are the "weaker sex" was met with widespread derision.

People soon began citing examples of women who defy the idea that their sex is inherently weaker.









Social media users fiercely rejected her comments.

Jackson's confirmation will soon head to the Senate floor, and is expected to pass with bipartisan support.

MAGA Fan Has Unhinged Meltdown After Starbucks Barista Doesn't Call Out 'Charlie Kirk' With Her Order

For anyone who isn't familiar with Starbucks ordering protocol, the cashier will ask for a name to put on the cup.

When the order is done, the barista will call out the name on the cup to let the customer know their order is ready. However, if there aren't many people in the store, it's not uncommon for a person to just have their drink handed to them or brought to their table if they're seated.

The video was first shared by the X account @MelaniaMeme. In it, the digital Mrs. Trump appears to teleport into a high-rise—likely Trump Tower—with a glittering cityscape in the background. She steps forward, looks directly into the camera, glances down, then back up again, without uttering a word.

Bad Bunny Hilariously Trolls Fox News Over Their Super Bowl Outrage In 'SNL' Season Opener

Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny took aim at Fox News and the conservative outrage over his upcoming Super Bowl halftime show during the season 51 premiere of Saturday Night Live over the weekend, joking that all of his critics have "four months to learn" Spanish if they're that bothered about him singing in his native tongue during football's biggest night.

Bad Bunny will be the first Latin male artist to headline the halftime show, but many of President Donald Trump's supporters have vowed to boycott the event. At least one far-right figure said Bad Bunny "will just further divide the American people" and suggested that either the right-wing performers Kid Rock or Jason Aldean should headline the show instead.
