One aspect of President Joe Biden’s pick for the coming Supreme Court vacancy isn’t up for debate: Whatever her credentials, Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson is the “dark money” left’s choice for the nation’s highest court. So why is the Washington Post, which normally decries “dark money,” carrying water for one of the darkest groups in politics?
WaPo columnist Glenn Kessler recently “marvel[ed] at the hypocrisy” of the conservative Judicial Crisis Network’s “attacks” on Demand Justice (a partisan activist group backing Jackson with a $1 million advertising spree) and its close ties to the multi-billion-dollar nonprofit network that spawned it. That network, run by Arabella Advisors LLC, raked in nearly $1.7 billion in 2020 alone, much of it from wealthy left-wing donors and their family foundations. It’s the most powerful liberal lobbying force in Washington.
