REUTERS — The dean of Georgetown University Law Center on Thursday condemned a new faculty member’s Twitter posts questioning the qualifications of any Black woman that President Joe Biden may nominate to replace retiring U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer. “The tweets’ suggestion that the best Supreme Court nominee could not be a Black woman and their use of demeaning language are appalling,” wrote dean Bill Treanor in a message to the law school community about comments posted Wednesday by Ilya Shapiro. The law school said last week that Shapiro—currently director of the Cato Institute’s Robert A. Levy Center for Constitutional Studies—is joining its faculty on Feb. 1 as executive director of the Georgetown Center for the Constitution. After news spread of Breyer’s retirement on Wednesday, Shapiro said on Twitter that D.C. Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals Chief Judge Sri Srinivasan is the “objectively best pick” to replace him, but Srinivasan “doesn’t fit into latest intersectional hierarchy so we’ll get [a] lesser black woman.”
