Defending Diversity: White House Denounces Islamophobic Attacks on Judicial Nominee
Controversy Surrounding President Biden’s Nomination of Adeel A. Mangi
President Biden’s nomination of Adeel A. Mangi as the first Muslim American appeals court judge has sparked a heated debate in Congress. Critics have raised concerns about Mangi’s association with a law school center for Muslim, Arab, and South Asian Americans, leading to what the White House has labeled as an “Islamophobic smear campaign” aimed at derailing the nomination.
Opposition from Sen. Lindsey Graham
Sen. Lindsey Graham, the ranking Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, has publicly called for Biden to withdraw Mangi’s nomination to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit in Philadelphia. Graham cited widespread apprehensions about Mangi’s nomination that extend beyond just Republican senators.
White House Stands Firm
The White House has strongly condemned efforts to undermine Mangi’s nomination and reiterated President Biden’s support for him. White House spokesman Andrew Bates defended Mangi, emphasizing his integrity and the significance of his potential historic appointment as the first Muslim federal appellate judge.
Allegations and Responses
Republicans and conservative groups have accused Mangi of being antisemitic and anti-police, pointing to his involvement with the Rutgers Law School’s Center for Security, Race, and Rights. Mangi, a seasoned litigator, has faced scrutiny for his past affiliations with controversial speakers and events hosted by the center.
During his nomination hearing, Mangi addressed questions about his views on the Hamas attacks, denouncing

From arborist to the man with the largest pompom in the world: these are the new candidates of ‘De mol’
Bernard (33) lives in Melle
He calls himself a homo universalis who can do a bit of everything, but is not really good at anything – although that could easily be an asset in De mol. When Bernard’s mind isn’t in the game, he’s probably thinking about those other two existential things in life: the cosmos and… football. “If there is alien life in our universe, I would like to play football against it,” the teacher noted. Fortunately, his other big dream, participating in De Mol, is something easy to fulfill.
Charlotte (26) from Antwerp
Charlotte, or Lolo to the friends, is the youngest member of the group. The pharmacist lives with her boyfriend in Antwerp and, as is the local tradition, wears her heart on her sleeve. Not ideal in a game like The Mole, we think. “I always laugh when I tell the truth, which makes a lot of people think I’m lying,” she says. That is another characteristic that she can use in the game. Although it remains to be seen whether the other candidates can also call her ‘Lolo’ by the end of the program.
Coco (31) from Aarschot
From Lolo, to Coco, who in turn is actually called Marta. The nickname of the Aarschot nurse, who moved here from Mallorca six years ago, is a shortened version of her surname Corbillo Colom. Only last year did she discover the existence of The Mole and immediately binge-watched all the seasons. Talk about ideal preparation. If you have children who speak Spanish: put them to bed early. Because Coc
