Liberal Groups Mobilize Against Trump’s First 9th Circuit NomineeDaily Caller, Feb 11, 2018, Kevin Daley
Liberal advocacy groups have mobilized in opposition to Ryan Bounds, President Donald Trump’s first nominee to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
Though criticisms of his professional record are slim thus far, progressive interest groups claim his undergraduate writings are highly inflammatory, such that his temperament might be questioned.
The Alliance for Justice (AFJ), a progressive advocacy organization, reviewed dozens of pieces Bounds wrote as a college student for a conservative weekly called the Stanford Review, that are intensely critical of student activist clubs and campus multiculturalism policies. Taken together, the Alliance says his writings betray an intolerant worldview.
“Race-focused groups foster race-think, and the only way to rid our multicultural community of race-think is to rid it of these invidious factions,†he wrote in one opinion piece, referring to such campus groups as the black student union.
