Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson's confirmation hearing
Houston's Sunday morning political debate show! Greg Groogan and the panel discuss the Supreme Court Justice confirmation hearings that have been going on all week.
Some Republicans called Judge Jackson too lenient on those found guilty of sex crimes and child pornography.
Others like Texas senator Ted Cruz challenged Jackson's beliefs on education, including the so-called "critical race theory".
"What my being here I think is about, at some level, is about the progress that we've made in this country, in a very short period of time," said Jackson.
