Fox News host Tucker Carlson has unleashed horrific racist attacks on Supreme Court nominee Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson.

He started by saying that Judge Jackson has a name that "even Joe Biden has trouble announcing" and moved on to calling President Biden's choice a move toward turning the U.S. into Rwanda. The latest is his call for Judge Jackson to release her LSAT scores, implying that she is not qualified for the Supreme Court--despite having a more prestigious resume than the last four seated Supreme Court justices.

This is hateful prejudice against a Black woman. Carlson is doubling down on the racist assumption that because Judge Jackson is Black, she can't possibly be qualified to sit on the highest court in the land. If Fox News allows Carlson to keep his show, they are implicitly endorsing his views.

Tucker Carlson is the most watched news pundit on television right now, with more than 3.4 million viewers. His racism sets the stage for Republicans to block Judge Jackson's confirmation to the Supreme Court, and we can’t let it stand.
