President Joe Biden's historic judicial nominee, Adeel Mangi, faces opposition due to allegations from the GOP, falsely portraying him as antisemitic, anti-cop, and a terrorist sympathizer. Despite this, Mangi is supported by virtually every major Jewish group and 7 law enforcement organizations. A former federal appeals court judge appointed by George H.W. Bush expressed being 'deeply disturbed' by the attacks on Mangi, calling the potential rejection 'toxic'. The nomination's outcome remains uncertain amidst heavy pushback, with some Democrats, including Cortez Masto, expressing concerns over Mangi's past affiliations. The situation has sparked a broader debate over the vision of America and the fairness of the nomination process.
The Judicial Conference is finally acting to help end judge shopping But now Sen. McConnell's accusing them of "taking the bait" of Democrats, as if randomly assigning judges is partisan He's fuming because this will make it harder for hard-right partisans to hijack our courts https://t.co/lo3AeschTR
Why Dems are spending political capital defending Mangi is beyond me. This is a completely fair reason to oppose Mangi’s nomination. https://t.co/Mx2fWNWlmp
Cortez Masto says she is one of the Democrats who has concerns with 3rd Circuit judicial nominee Adeel Mangi “I have concerns about his affiliation with an organization that supports individuals who killed police officers”
REMINDER: As Joe Biden and his allies flail away and scream "Islamophobia" as Adeel Mangi's nomination is on the rocks, here's the reality: Mangi was on the board of an organization founded by Weather Underground terrorist Kathy Boudin. Mangi has no place on the federal bench. https://t.co/Zb2fxN0vlM

Except Adeel Mangi isn't antisemitic or anti-police and she knows this. Mangi is backed by virtually every major Jewish group + 7 law enf groups. This is one of the ugliest smear campaigns of a court nominee I've seen. Here's what's actually going on: https://t.co/Y0tRqSmUJr https://t.co/vZKh5fSEhk

Morning. ☕️ ICYMI: Biden's historic Muslim judicial nominee Adeel Mangi may not have the votes because 1) the GOP has spent months falsely casting him as an antisemitic, anti-cop terrorist sympathizer and 2) a coupla Dems are cowering. Ugly, ugly stuff. https://t.co/4EAdFADxAv
