Republican Hawley’s attack on supreme court nominee Jackson is wrong, says senator

Senate judiciary committee chair Dick Durbin says Hawley's attacks should be ignored in confirmation hearings this week

The Missouri Republican Josh Hawley is wrong to attack Ketanji Brown Jackson, Joe Biden's supreme court nominee, and should be ignored in confirmation hearings this week, the Senate judiciary chair said.

Hawley, the Illinois Democrat Dick Durbin said, is part of the fringe within the Republican party ... a man who was fist-bumping the murderous mob that descended on the Capitol on 6 January of the last year.
