Big Oil already has plenty of its lawyers going on to the federal bench, starting with Amy Coney Barrett whose father is a lead attorney for Shell. Now the Senate is poised to nominate another Big Oil warrior, Jennifer Rearden.

Jennifer Rearden is a corporate lawyer who heads the crisis management team at a Big Law firm – the same small crisis management team that brags about its work representing Chevron in its lawsuit against Steven Donziger. Donziger represented Ecuadorian villagers damaged by Chevron’s deliberate pollution of the Amazon rainforest basin and obtained a huge judgment in Ecuadorian court, but Chevron retained Rearden’s firm to accuse Donziger of corruption. And billing records show that she worked on Donziger’s case.

Rearden has also represented Uber and other corporate interests accused of discrimination against disabled and HIV-positive folk. In short, she’s everything that’s wrong with America’s judicial system, and she’s getting a vote the same day as Ketanji Brown Jackson, who’s everything right in America’s judicial system.
