GOP raises red flag on Supreme Court nominee’s Guantanamo work

Republicans are raising a red flag over Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson’s work on behalf of Guantanamo Bay detainees.

Her work is coming up in closed-door meetings with Jackson as she sits down with GOP senators and Republican members of the Judiciary Committee, previewing a likely Republican line of attack during high-profile committee hearings next week.

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), one of several GOP senators on the panel seen as having White House ambitions, said he raised the issue with her during his meeting and predicted it would come up again during the hearing.
