Summary

President Joe Biden’s Supreme Court nominee, Ketanji Brown Jackson, has come under fire for her positions on child porn sentencing, court stacking, and immigration.

Now David Osborne, CEO of Americans for Fair Treatment, tells "The Daily Signal Podcast" that Jackson has another controversial position: her views on labor.

"Even taking Ketanji Brown Jackson at her best, she's got new judicial philosophies. She's got her own view on the First Amendment and how it should work. She's definitely got her own perspective on how federal sector bargaining should work," says Osborne. "And she's going to bring that to the court. And she may drive some of these issues. I think unions are getting what they're paying for."

Osborne joins the show to discuss those concerns, and what they could mean if Jackson is confirmed to the court.

We also cover these stories:

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., gets into a heated confrontation with Jackson on her third day of hearings.

Madeleine Albright, who served as secretary of state under President Bill Clinton, dies at 84.
