Associate Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson chose a remarkable place to explain judicial neutrality: a podcast hosted by former First Lady Michelle Obama and produced by the media company founded by Michelle and former President Barack Hussein Obama. A Supreme Court justice discussing neutrality on an Obama production is like a referee lecturing fans about fairness from inside one team's locker room. Former President Joe "Brain Cloud" Biden promised during the 2020 presidential campaign that his first Supreme Court selection would be a black woman. AdvertisementJackson has also leaned into the public spotlight through a memoir tour, entertainment appearances, and a magazine cover calling her "the people's champion." No one needs to claim that a podcast appearance automatically decides Jackson's vote in a future case.
