Tom Cotton was called the "lowest of the low" by Harrison. Cotton suggested that Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson might have defended Nazis accused of war crimes. The GOP was called a party built on fraud, fear and fascist tendencies. The chairman of the Democratic National Committee slammed the senator on Wednesday, calling him the "lowest of the low" and a "little maggot-infested man" after the Arkansas Republican suggested that Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson might have defended Nazis accused of war crimes. In a Senate where there is Ted Cruz and Lindsey Graham, Tom Cotton is the lowest of the low, according to Harrison. Harrison took exception to Cotton suggesting that Biden's Supreme Court nominee might have defended Nazis during the Nuremberg trials. Cotton was repeating the GOP's misleading attacks on Jackson's defense of Gitmo Bay detainees during her time as a federal public defender and later in private practice. Cotton referred to Justice Robert Jackson, who took a leave from the Supreme Court to lead the prosecution of top Nazi officers at the Nuremberg trials. Jackson was a strong supporter of the rule of law and the need for all accused people to get a fair trial. Cotton said that the last Judge Jackson left the Supreme Court to prosecute the case against the Nazis. The anecdote about Cotton blocking Butts was disputed by Harrison. Butts, who was a close friend of the president, died in 2016 after being diagnosed with leukemia. Her nomination was stuck for more than 800 days before she died. According to Butts, Cotton told her that he was blocking her nomination because he wanted to twist the knife in Obama. Bruni described it as a way to cause pain to the president, and wrote that Cotton's office did not dispute the account of the meeting. Cotton's office later disputed his characterization of Butts' conversation with Cotton, especially the notion that he callously blocked Butts' nomination, The Daily Caller wrote at the time. He doesn't deserve to be in the United States Senate and is indicative of a broader moral stain on the Republican Party. Harrison said that the party was built on fraud, fear and fascist tendencies. Democrats don't deserve to be in power of this great nation. ACotton did not respond to a request for comment. The original article is on Business Insider.
