Welcome to Monday, March 28th, friends and foes...

Biden on Putin: "For God’s sake, this man cannot remain in power."

In previous remarks, the president has referred to Putin as a "killer,” “butcher,” and “war criminal"--but Biden's latest statement has serious implications for de-escalation in Ukraine and had several lawmakers scrambling to clarify that the U.S. was not seeking a regime change in Moscow.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov:

“[I]t’s not up to the president of the U.S. and not up to the Americans to decide who will remain in power in Russia.”

The Latest: Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson's SCOTUS Nomination

The Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday wrapped up its confirmation hearings on the nomination of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court, clearing the way for the committee to send the nomination to the full Senate in the coming weeks.

The next step in the process for Jackson’s nomination is set to occur Monday, March 28th, although it’s mostly a procedural step.

After the Senate Judiciary Committee concludes its hearings on a nomination, it traditionally “holds over” the nomination for one week before voting to advance the nomination to the Senate floor. The hold-over period allows senators to continue one-on-one meetings with the nominee, who can respond in person and in writing to any outstanding questions.

Today's hearing will mark the beginning of the hold-over period which would end on April 4th ― the next time the Senate Judiciary Committee takes up the nomination.
