President Biden’s "historic" nominee for a federal appellate court served on the board of a Muslim advocacy group that has blamed Israel for provoking Hamas’s terrorist attack and hosted an event with a convicted terrorist fundraiser on the 20th anniversary of 9/11.
Adeel Abdullah Mangi, Biden’s nominee for the Third Circuit Court of Appeals, served on the advisory board of Rutgers Law School’s Center for Security, Race and Rights from 2019 until earlier this year. During his time on the board, the think tank feted anti-Israel college students and marked the anniversary of the September 11 attacks with an event featuring a terrorist fundraiser. If confirmed, Mangi will be the first Muslim to serve on a federal appellate court, a fact highlighted by Democrats at Mangi’s confirmation hearing on Wednesday. Sen. Robert Menendez (D., N.J.), who faces federal bribery and foreign agent charges, called the nomination of a Muslim to the prestigious judicial post a "milestone we should have reached many years ago."
But Mangi’s affiliation with a staunchly anti-Israel think tank could prove a roadblock for that "historic" nomination.
In 2021, the Center for Security, Race and Rights hosted an event on the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks that featured Sami al-Arian, a former professor who helped fund the terrorist group Palestinian Islamic Jihad. It promoted an event, "Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS): Globalized Palestinian Resistance to Israel’s Settler Colonialism and Apartheid," with Hatem Bazian, the founder of Students for Justice in Palestine, an anti-Israel group that has pushed pro-Hamas rhetoric.
Last year, the center held an event with the activist group Palestine Legal to provide "legal strategy" to anti-Israel college students. An official from Palestine Legal has a history of praising Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran, the Washington Free Beacon reported.

Terrible conservative reporting.
The research of his background should have focused on pro Israel rulings and anti Muslim rulings. This appointment is strictly about Michigan and other Muslim segments that can flip states.
This is just stupid.
No. Just NO.
Elections have consequences, duh. Until people want the shooting to start, in Minecraft btw, just grin and bare the suck from the ones calling the shots.
America does not need a Judicial Nominee who is muslim. It would be a travesty of Justice. Typical of who Biden is, just plain stupid.
The Tater’s puppeteers are just rubbing our noses in the posteriors of their terrorist buddies, like Hammie Boy here.
he couldn’t find even one token Muslim who didn’t have an anti-American or a terrorist background?
really?
