Georgetown law dean blasts 'appalling' tweets by incoming prof about race, gender test for Biden SCOTUS pick
Fox News
The dean of Georgetown University Law Center described a new faculty member's tweets about President Biden's potential new Supreme Court pick as “appalling.”
Biden said Thursday that he will announce his nominee to replace retiring Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer before the end of February, and that the candidate will be a Black woman.
"Objectively best pick for Biden is Sri Srinivasan, who is solid [progressive] and [very] smart," Shapiro tweeted. "Even has identity politics benefit of being first Asian (Indian) American. But alas doesn’t fit into last intersectionality hierarchy so we’ll get lesser black woman. Thank heaven for small favors?"
In a follow-up tweet, Shapiro wrote, "Because Biden said he’s only consider [sic] black women for SCOTUS, his nominee will always have an asterisk attached. Fitting that the Court takes up affirmative action next term."
