When now-Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson stated in her confirmation hearing that she couldn’t define what a “woman” is, that probably should have been treated as a bit of a red flag. That would have required the Senate to have any sense of shame, though, and we all know that’s long been in short supply.
Since joining the Supreme Court, Jackson has become perhaps the most reliable left-wing vote on the court. There is no level of partisanship she won’t stoop to in order to defend a Democrat viewpoint, and that was on display again in recent oral arguments surrounding parental rights.
The case in question focuses on whether parents have a right to opt their children out of being taught LGBTQ ideology, including transgenderism. While a majority of the court seemed to be leaning toward affirming that obvious right, Jackson showed she’s either the dumbest or most evil member of the court.
Wow.
Like the dog returning to its vomit, so Justice Jackson returns to this idea that “we don’t know that these books aren’t just sitting on the shelves.”
The Montgomery County Public Schools policy couldn’t be clearer—the kids must be taught these books.

Look, I’m not a lawyer, but I’m going to go way out on a limb and suggest that a Supreme Court justice should have some basic grasp of the details being argued in front of them before jumping into the fray. Not Jackson, though. She wasn’t aware (or at least pretended she wasn’t) that the Montgomery County School District, which is at the center of this argument, requires the books in question to be taught to students.
To offer further context, this case surrounds a specific LGBTQ curriculum that was mandated some years prior. The books are not just “sitting on the shelves,” and even if they were, I would argue that parents have a right to object to their children being exposed to them. This is basic stuff. Schools should not be teaching things like sexuality to kids. There is no reason to do it, and it can clearly violate the religious rights of parents in the process.
But while Jackson often comes across as vapid and ill-equipped, as I mentioned, the other option is that she’s just evil, and the rest is an act.
This woman should have never been put on the High Court. Teaching kids they can change their gender is not only morally wrong but it’s biologically and scientifically incorrect.

So let me get this straight. If parents don’t want their child enrolled in a curriculum that teaches them about sexuality and transgenderism, the burden should be on them to homeschool? All those taxes they pay to fund the public school system should just be voided? They get no say whatsoever?
Returning to the core issue, why is it this important for public schools to talk about topics that violate the religious principles of some parents? Does LGBTQ ideology really trump religious liberty? It doesn’t, but Jackson thinks it does, and that’s a scary proposition. Imagine a court with a few more justices in her mold, and where that would leave the country.
Consider what else her ridiculous argument could apply to. A hospital denying care based on race? That would be fine, according to Jackson, because the patient could just provide themselves with care. Of course, we all know she would never agree with that because this isn’t about logical consistency. It’s about partisanship and propping up a specific worldview. Remember, this is the same woman who made her “Broadway debut” in an LGBTQ play.
Justice Brett Kavanaugh brought some sanity to the discussion by pointing out how absurd Jackson’s arguments were.
Justice Kavanaugh with the most important point of the day:
“They’re not asking you to change what’s taught in the classroom. They’re only seeking to be able to walk-out so their children aren’t exposed to things that are contrary to their own beliefs.”pic.twitter.com/03p4RKl6RT— Matt Whitlock (@mattdizwhitlock) April 22, 2025
All parents want is the ability to pull their children out of classroom sessions that expose their kids to LGBTQ discussions. As I said before, I’d argue this stuff shouldn’t be in schools in the first place, but that’s not even the issue here. Yet, Jackson still wants to trample on the rights of parents and spit on religious liberty. So is her motivation stupidity or worse? I’ll let you be the judge of that.
