There’s one United States Supreme Court justice, who already proved her level of “knowledge” by saying she was unable to define “woman” during her confirmation hearing, who has more to say than any other justice.
Ketanji Jackson.

An analysis from the New York Times confirmed Jackson is “by far the most talkative justice” on the court for at least the last two decades.
“Spanning from October 2005 to April 2026, the analysis found that the Biden appointee spoke an average of 1,263 words per case in the four short years she’s been on the bench — a figure the outlet noted is ‘more than double the justices’ average,'” according to a report posted at the Federalist.
“According to the study, [Jackson] speaks 23 percent of the words uttered by the justices.”
DEI appointment Ketanji Brown Jackson, along with other female Justices, leads in average words spoken since 2005.
Clarence Thomas has the lowest, with Jackson speaking almost 20 words for every one of Thomas’.

Next was her predecessor, retired Justice Stephen Breyer, who clocked in at 818 words per case. In the years Jackson’s been on the court, that second-place ranking belongs to Justice Sonia Sotomayor, the Federalist reported.
The Times said there are several possible “explanations,” including that she knows she’ll be on the liberal losing end of cases and sees her constant comments “as an opportunity to reach beyond the courtroom and communicate with the public…”
The Federalist explained, “As the Times alluded to, Jackson has often monopolized speaking time to advance leftist talking points and nonsensical arguments during the high court’s hearings.”
For instance, during the fight over birthright citizenship she, “mused that if she stole a wallet while in Japan, she would be bound by her ‘allegiance’ to the country’s criminal laws and the consequences therein.”

“If I steal someone’s wallet in Japan, the Japanese authorities can arrest me and prosecute me… I’m still locally owing allegiance in that sense.”

She also contributed “unintelligible commentary” during arguments over the use of race in redistricting, which she wanted but the majority disallowed.
She claimed states should consider race in the process because black Americans are systemically “disabled” and don’t have legitimate access to voting systems.

Conservatives were much less windy, with Brett Kavanaugh at 527, Samuel Alito at 395 and Clarence Thomas at 16.
