Biden cheers 200th judicial confirmation: ‘Judges matter’

President Joe Biden thanked the Senate on Wednesday for confirming the 200th federal judge of his presidency, which he referred to as “another milestone in the effort to protect the freedoms and liberties of all Americans.”

Earlier in the day, the Senate voted 66-28 to confirm Angela Martinez as a district court judge in Arizona.

“These judges are exceptionally well-qualified. They come from every walk of life, and collectively, they form the most diverse group of judicial appointees ever put forward by a president,” Biden wrote on Wednesday. “Judges matter. These men and women have the power to uphold basic rights or to roll them back.”

More than 60% of Biden’s judicial appointees are women or people of color, according to the White House, and Biden claimed that they will “decide whether women have the freedom to make their own reproductive healthcare decisions; whether Americans have the freedom to cast their ballots; whether workers have the freedom to unionize and make a living wage for their families; and whether children have the freedom to breathe clean air and drink clean water.”

“There is more work to do,” Biden concluded. “Going forward, I will continue my solemn responsibility of nominating individuals who have excelled in their professional careers, who reflect the communities they serve, and who apply the law impartially and without favoritism.”

Judges matter, except when they tell me I'm violating the law. In that case, I ignore them.

He probably should have said, "Skin color and communist ideology matter (the only things that matter)."

Biden outpaces Trump with 200 confirmed judges, cementing impact on courts
Biden, Senate Democrats cheer diversity of his judges Wednesday

President Biden hit a milestone on Wednesday, officially appointing 200 judges to the federal bench and cementing what will be a long-lasting effect on the country's judiciary, according to experts and lawmakers.

Biden is currently outpacing former President Trump, who made significant traction in judicial appointments. Trump was able to get nearly as many federal appellate judges confirmed as former President Obama before him, who notably had double the time.

"Judges matter. These men and women have the power to uphold basic rights or to roll them back," Biden said in a statement recognizing his 200 appointments.

Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, slammed Biden's nominees as "the most political nominees I've ever seen nominated for the federal bench."

"Joe Biden, like Barack Obama before him, is thoroughly committed to transforming the federal judiciary and packing it with radical left-wing judges," said Josh Hammer, senior counsel for the Article III Project.

Biden and his counterparts in the Senate, Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Senate Judiciary Committee Chair Dick Durbin, D-Ill., celebrated the accomplishment, specifically highlighting the racial, ethnic and gender diversity among his slate of appointments.

Among top LSAT scorers (170 or above), 82.5% are white, 15.6% are Asian, 1.6% Hispanic, and 0.3% black.
80% of overall US lawyers are white.
Biden's 200 federal judges: 37% white, 42% Hispanic and black, 14% Asian.
