WASHINGTON (AP) – Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson is declaring at her confirmation hearing that she will rule “without any agendas” if approved as the high court’s first black female justice. At her second and last day of questioning on Wednesday, she rejected Republican efforts to paint her as soft on crime in her decade as a federal judge. Democrats, meanwhile, defended her and heralded the historic nature of her nomination. Her confirmation seems all but certain, and Democrats are hoping for approval by Easter. But Republicans are still trying to chip away at her record.
