Turns out the Falls Church school board guy from the Koch thinktank, Ilya Shapiro, really is toxic

Racist? Or just funded by billionaires to lie to us to help get pro-billionaire judges on the Supreme Court?

Barrett is as partisan as you get. She worked for Ken Starr’s hard-right witch hunt, for God’s sake. With Kavanaugh.

So his best defense is that he’s not personally racist, but he’s willing to be bought to behave in a racist way?

Ha ha so true. And he has another huge fan in FC that defends him constantly, it’s so weird.

So basically every Supreme Court Justice pick until Thurgood Marshall was made with racist intent. Right?

Reagan picking Thomas was racism?

Was it sexism when Trump decided he was only going to replace RBG with a woman?

Racism is saying only people of a certain race (say, white people) are qualified to be on the Supreme Court.

Biden said, there are lots qualified people out there but I think it’s time we had a Black woman on the court. No different than what Reagan or Trump did.

So according to Ilya Shapiro, Reagan was a true anti-racist but George HW Bush was a racist?

He tanked his reputation. His career will be fine. Georgetown won’t recind their offer, although I’m sure they hope he decides not to come. As long as he has got Koch money behind him, he will always find a home.

I'm not even sure that he tanked his reputation. The 'affirmative action for me but not for thee' conservatives have no problem with what he said. And I'm not sure there are that many people on the left who know him and think he's a brilliant guy.

Even if GTown did rescind his offer, he'd just become a right wing media star because he was 'cancelled' and probably be the president of Hillsdale this time next year.
