Bill Kristol tweets: “Simple question for the sophisticated accommodators of Trump: Why aren’t Trump’s comments on Judge Curiel simply disqualifying?”
John Rivers replies: “La Raza is a racial advocacy group. Hey, Bill, are you in any racial advocacy groups?
It’s fine for hispanics to be in groups called The Race. What’s racist is for white people to notice.
It’s so racist to notice that a judge is in a racial advocacy group called The Race. Disgusting!”
Of Course Trump Is Right About Minority Judges—Remember The “Wise Latina”?
The more I think about it, the more I like James Kirkpatrick‘s contention that the Main Stream Media, not the Democratic Party or any political organization, is now the Official Keeper (and enforcer) of the Cultural Marxist Narrative. A few moments ago, I googled on “Wise Latina + “Donald Trump” and found that there’s only one (1) reference: WashPost Unleashes on Trump, The Mexican-American Judge, and the ‘Wise Latina’, by Jeffrey Lord (whom we’ve praised before), Newsbusters, June 4, 2016:
Let’s recall that the Washington Post endorsed then-federal judge Sonia Sotomayor for the Supreme Court. During her confirmation hearings it came to light that Sotomayor regularly gave some version of the following quote in her speeches:
“I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would, more often than not, reach a better conclusion.”
Got that? Sotomayor was explicitly saying that her view of judicial decision-making was related not to the law and the Constitution but her ethnic/racial heritage as a “wise Latina.”
And yet? And yet the Washington Post endorsed that, in this editorial headlined: “Confirm Sonia Sotomayor.”
It takes an impressive amount of discipline to avoid noticing that, if a Supreme Court Justice openly congratulates herself for making decisions based on her race, Donald Trump has every reason to be concerned about the impartiality of a professional Mexican like U.S. District Judge Gonzalo Curiel.
VDARE.com has long argued that, given the U.S. now has legislating judges, they should be compelled to face elections i.e. impeachment. If you follow that link, you will see that a high proportion of the legislating judges we have exposed have been various sorts of minorities. (There is the occasional honorable exception).
Diversity is not strength, and it above all is not an impartial judiciary. That requires a degree of cultural consensus that post-1965 immigration policy has destroyed.
