In a sharply worded video, U.S. Senate candidate Kelly Tshibaka points out President Joe Biden’s glaring inconsistencies when it comes to supporting black judges.
Biden has promised to place a black woman on the U.S. Supreme Court this summer when Justice Stephen Breyer retires in July. Biden and Democrats are using the pending nomination to rally support from black Americans. Tshibaka, who is attempting to unseat Sen. Lisa Murkowski is having none of it.
In a short video, released Feb. 14, Tshibaka blasted Biden for using the high court nomination as a way to demonstrate that he supports diversity.
“To hear them tell it, getting a black woman on the high court is their most important priority. It’s not always been a priority,” Tshibaka said of Biden and other Democrats.
She noted that, as a U.S. senator, Biden adamantly opposed a black female judge when President George W. Bush nominated Judge Janice Rogers Brown to fill a vacancy on the Washington, D.C. Circuit Court.
“That’s considered a feeder court for the Supreme Court. How did Joe Biden feel about that?” Tshibaka said. “Senator Biden tried to block her nomination, not once, but twice.”
She points out that Biden voted with Democrats to filibuster Brown’s nomination in 2003 and 2005, and then voted against her nomination a third time during the final 2005 confirmation vote.
Tshibaka observed that Biden’s opposition to black judges also extends to U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, whom Biden and fellow Democrats unsuccessfully opposed during a highly controversial 1991 confirmation in which they attempted to paint Thomas as a sexual deviant.
Thomas adamantly denied the allegations, and famously condemned Senator Biden and other lawmakers for orchestrating what he called, “a high tech lynching for uppity blacks who, in any way, deign to think for themselves, to do for themselves, to have different ideas. And it is a message, that unless you kowtow to an old order, this is what will happen to you. You will be lynched, destroyed, caricatured by a committee of the U.S. Senate rather than hung from a tree.”
“So, when Biden tells you he cares about diversity, he doesn’t really mean it,” Tshibaka concluded. “Because if you’re black and you don’t align with Biden’s radical, progressive ideology, then you don’t really count for Joe Biden and the insiders of the Democratic Party.”

Tshibaka’s rusty barge of grievance is moored to an ancient buoy. I’d like to hear some positive and future oriented statements about what she will do for Alaska rather than just bitch and insult.
Then attend one of her get -togethers and ask her!!
Terry. Tshibaka on her worst day is light years ahead of the nepotistic senator from Fairbanks.
Greg, but still; Tshibaka is against a lot of stuff , but what is she for?
Terry I think you missed Greg’s point. She is “for” a long list of things, not to disclude Alaskans (even the Democrats as it can be proven in this particular situation)… sometimes, at least in the English language and in an Educated, American society, the topics or movements people are against will tell you exactly what they are “for.”
Is she for Dominion CCP voting machines? That is ground zero…. Is she against communist mail in Vote?
She spent the last 17 years in the bowels of the swamp in DC….. If those who implemented Dominion are not Jailed and the
machines destroyed then all is Moot…
Umm spying on a sitting President could be maybe be an important topic also.
The crickets heard from Repub leaders like Snitch McConnell just leads one to perceive
that Rino Mitch is neck deep complicit. Gonna get good. Let the Perp walks begin.
The Durham report DID NOT in any way claim or imply that Trump was spied on.
She posts all the time on what she’s for and the positive she’ll do, even a couple videos on her position on judicial nominees. Here’s one:

And Restoring Eldction Security is one of her major priorities. kellyforak.com/kellys-plan
Sounds like Terry and John need to do more research.
I have never heard Kelly speak on the removal of the Dominion Machines Jessi. If she has then I apologize.
If we have no vote or a Senator that cares about our vote then this Nation is History. Please if you have in your
research have her speaking on Dominion I would very much appreciate you posting as I would vote for a. candidate
who cares about my vote. Thank You.
