And people freaked out -- even though she was nominated for an award. Sen. Marsha Blackburn is calling for an investigation! From The Hill:
Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) called for an investigation Thursday into Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson for attending the Grammy Awards, where various artists criticized Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
Jackson was nominated in the Best Audio Book, Narration and Storytelling Recording category for her memoir “Lovely One.” The Grammy award went to the Dalai Lama for “Mediations: The Reflections of His Holiness the Dalai Lama.”
“Americans deserve a Supreme Court that is impartial and above political influence,” Blackburn wrote on social platform X. “When a Justice participates in such a highly politicized event, it raises ethical questions. We need an investigation into Justice Jackson’s ability to remain impartial.”
Blackburn also sent a letter to Chief Justice John Roberts “to conduct a thorough investigation” into the ethics of Jackson’s attendance at the award show and her “ability to remain impartial with respect to immigration matters that come before the Court.”
“For the following reasons, I urge you to conduct a thorough investigation into Justice Jackson’s attendance at this event and whether her presence at such an event complies with the obligation that a Supreme Court justice ‘act at all times in a manner that promotes public confidence in the integrity and impartiality of the judiciary,'” Blackburn’s letter to Roberts reads, according to a statement from her office.

I am no fan of KBJ but this is absurd. She is so far left that the image of her palling around with left wing Hollywood elites is akin to complaining about Justice Thomas being seen having lunch with members of the Federalist Society.
didn't know a music awards ceremony was a political event...
Yes it’s first amendment, which is so named for being the first targeted for destruction
So then Alito and Thomas will stop slobbib the knob of Federalist Society!? Or let me guess… rules are only for those that are not MAGA aligned?
