Biden Judicial Nominee Doesn’t Know the Constitution
In a shocking and what many would call embarrassing moment, Biden judicial nominee, Judge Charnelle Bjelkengren of the Spokane County Superior Court in Washington State couldn’t remember what both Article V and Article II do in the United States Constitution.
Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana asked the basic questions of the judge, in what has now become a viral clip of her questioning during her confirmation hearing after President Biden nominated her to serve on the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Washington.
“Tell me what Article V of the Constitution does,” asked Kennedy.
“Article V is not coming to mind at the moment,” the judge replied.
“How about Article II?” Kennedy asked next – and again Bjelkengren had no idea.
Watch the full clip of Senator Kennedy’s questioning of Biden’s judicial nominees below.
