BREAKING: Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson boldly defies Donald Trump by publicly condemning his authoritarian attacks on judges which are “designed to intimidate.”

The crowd went wild with applause as she dug in even more…

“Across the nation, judges are facing increased threats of not only physical violence, but also professional retaliation just for doing our jobs,” Jackson said during an address to a conference of judges.

“And the attacks are not random. They seem designed to intimidate those of us who serve in this critical capacity,” she continued.

“The threats and harassment are attacks on our democracy, on our system of government. And they ultimately risk undermining our Constitution and the rule of law,” she said.

“I do know that loneliness. It is very stressful to have to decide difficult cases in the spotlight and under pressure,” she added as the room burst into applause. “It can sometimes take raw courage to remain steadfast in doing what the law requires.”

“Other judges have faced challenges like the ones we face today and have prevailed,” said Jackson, comparing the current historic moment to past scandals like Watergate.
