President Biden nominated Judge Charnelle Bjelkengren to serve on the bench U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Washington, who failed to answer Louisiana GOP Senator John Kennedy’s law school quiz questions about the Constitution. Bjelkengren also could not answer what"purposivism" was, either, saying that in her"12 years as an assistant attorney general" and her"nine years as a judge," she"was not faced with that precise question."
Kennedy asked Bjelkengren what Articles II and V of the nation’s primary legal document do, which Biden’s nominee was unable to answer."Well, you're going to be faced with it if you're confirmed, I can assure you of that," Kennedy said.
