Blackburn Urges Roberts to Probe Justice Jackson’s Grammys Appearance After Anti-ICE Speeches

No public video shows her applauding those remarks, with critics invoking the court’s 2023 ethics code.

Overview

  • Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson attended the Grammys as a nominee for narrating her memoir and was shown on camera during her nomination but not during anti-ICE speeches.
  • Performers and attendees highlighted opposition to ICE, including remarks from Billie Eilish and Bad Bunny and the widespread use of “ICE OUT” pins.
  • Sen. Marsha Blackburn sent Chief Justice John Roberts a letter seeking an investigation under the Supreme Court’s Code of Conduct and raising potential recusal questions.
  • News outlets report no verified footage of Jackson applauding anti-ICE statements, even as commentary and social posts claim she did.
  • President Trump amplified the criticism by promoting a New York Post opinion on Truth Social, as the Court prepares to hear immigration and birthright citizenship cases this term.
