The Pennsylvania Fraternal Order of Police, Philadelphia Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 5 and the Pennsylvania State Troopers Association have officially come out in opposition to Judge Adeel Mangi's nomination to sit on the United States Third Circuit Court of Appeals -- making them the latest in a long list of law enforcement organizations to oppose the nomination.
“It’s an affront to all Pennsylvania law enforcement officers, active and retired, that Mr. Mangi would serve on an organization that describes a person who murdered a police officer as a ‘freedom fighter,'" the groups wrote in a letter to Senate Leadership Thursday. “As police officers, we hold a sacred oath of service and willingness to lay down our lives for our fellow citizens. On a cold evening, Dec. 9, 1981, Philadelphia Police Officer Daniel Faulkner made that sacrifice when he was shot execution style after making a traffic stop. This shooter, convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to death, was Mumia Abu Jamal."
“On May 7, 2021, the Alliance of Families for Justice co-sponsored an event, “Bring Them Home! Release our Elder Freedom Fighters.” One of the people they celebrated that day as a freedom fighter was Abu Jamal. We’re telling you this story because Mr. Mangi is an Advisory Board member of the Alliance," they continued.
“Mr. Mangi’s affiliation would set a dangerous precedent that supporters of cop killings can rise to a bench that is one step from the United States Supreme Court. On behalf of our active and retired law enforcement members, we respectfully ask that you stand up for law enforcement – and justice. Please oppose Mr. Mangi’s nomination to the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit.”
Now, 17 total police organizations are opposed to Adeel Mangi's nomination.

The White House is still standing by President Biden's decision to nominate Mangi for the job. Desperate Democrats are on defense, claiming opposition to giving him a promotion is "Islamophobic."

Republicans on the Judiciary Committee are fighting back.
Adeel Mangi is not qualified to be a federal judge because he supports organizations that celebrate people who kill law enforcement officers, hate Americans, and hate Jews.
It’s not Islamophobic to recognize that. It’s our job. pic.twitter.com/sQkUBte1io— John Kennedy (@SenJohnKennedy) March 22, 2024
Mumia Abu Jamal, “freedom fighter”. Sounds like someone Hussein Obama would support.
From wikipedia —
“Later reporting revealed that Mangi had failed to disclose the fact that he moderated a panel in which a financier of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad participated.
Mangi later apologized to the Senate for his lack of reporting on the event, saying that it was an “inadvertent omission”.
LOL. Yeah right.
Desperate Democrats are on defense, claiming opposition to giving him a promotion is "Islamophobic."
All who do not want to be defined as "meanspirited," including G.W. Bush and many women, will probably answer that all.
A damned Pakistani born and raised moslem, went to college in England, then law school at Harvard? He has NO business sitting in judgement over Americans.
FJB
This isn’t Bidens nominee. This is his puppeteers nominee. Biden’s too senile to have chosen and nominated anyone.
He’s not even an American. So of course we put him in charge of sitting in judgment over Americans.
Just what we need. Another foreigner in the American justice system. Bonus points for a radical America hating muslim. I wonder if he will pull out a trifecta of feces and “identify” as trans.
When he is in front of an audience, he acts JUST senile enough to make people say, "What a senile person!"
But watch when he is fielding questions from the press with lots of ambient noise, strange lighting, crowding persons nearby, bad volume of questions, etc.
You will conclude that he picks up the questions with high accuracy, no requests for repetition, no lag time before he responds.
It's fake and he's doing it to avoid prosecution for treason and bribery.
Appears to be working.
Sounds like you’re apologizing for Biden.
