President Biden’s nominee for the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, Jennifer Sung, signed a letter in 2018 that declared Supreme Court Justice-nominee Brett Kavanaugh was “intellectually and morally bankrupt.” When repeatedly asked under oath before the Senate Judiciary Committee on 9/14/2021, Sung declined to answer directly, and claimed the letter’s rhetoric was overheated. Kennedy countered, “This is really simple. You said, Brett Kavanaugh is a morally bankrupt person. It’s as clear as thunder on a summer night. Now, you’re under oath. Do you believe he is or not? How hard is that? You’ll have much harder questions as a federal judge, if you make it that far.”
Evading the question again, Sung said, “I appreciate the question senator. As I stated, those statements were rhetorical advocacy.” Sung claimed to have applied the law impartially, to which Kennedy retorted, “You’re the only person in the Milky Way that believes you are impartial.”
