Tom Kirsch is President Trump’s nominee to fill the seat on the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals vacated by Justice Barrett. Kirsch is well qualified for the judgeship, and her nomination has received approval from the Senate Judiciary Committee.
However, some Senate Democrats are opposing Kirsch because he is White. For example, Sen. Blumenthal says the Seventh Circuit lacks “diversity,” and that if Kirsch is confirmed, the court will continue to be all-White. The NAACP, in opposing Kirsch, goes so far as to call the Seventh Circuit “a segregated court.” The charge is absurd.
There are nine judges on the Seventh Circuit. They are a diverse group, as I show below. However, none is Black (the lone Black resigned a few years ago). The same is true of the court’s four senior judges.

Trump didn't fall for the usual nonsense and nominated only conservatives. And if only conservatives means mostly white, so be it.
Perfect for the job , FU rats
Dems are going to steel the next Georgia election and pack ALL the courts. Just a fact if we allow it.
The NAACP is a Black Separatist Group and has NO Place in a Diverse Country like the USA
I'm confused. Is Kirsch male or female? Or nonbinary? Trans? Or is this blog site run by people who have no concept of pronoun use?
Cocaine Mitch doesn’t care. He’s just going to keep confirming judges. Thank you Harry Reid for getting rid of the filibuster for nominees.
“”Diversity” is just a trick used by the democrats”
What color is Blumie? Can his comments be credible?
If the current Supreme Court yields to the mob, there may not be much incentive to launch court-packing.
The law doesn’t require diversity.
Justice is blind.
The law is the law.
Thats the theory and thats how its played.
Fu people. If he’s qualified for the job he gets the job.
No more affirmative action - no more racist “fake diversity” because these racist morons see only skin color.
Is it a man or a woman? They refer to this person as he and she?
Diversity=Anti-White
Maybe Blumenthal’s worthless senate seat should be immediately turned more diverse. He would resign to allow for that, if he really believed in it. He must be a racist.
i bet they dont watch sports because the overwhelming majority of players are black
