(Reuters) - The U.S. Senate on Thursday approved President Joe Biden's nomination of Zahid Quraishi, a magistrate judge in New Jersey, to the federal bench, making him the first Muslim federal judge in U.S. history.
The Democrat-controlled Senate voted 81-16 to confirm Quraishi, 46, who is the son of Pakistani immigrants and a former federal and military prosecutor.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York noted on the Senate floor that while Islam is the third-largest religion in the U.S., no Muslim has ever served on the federal bench.
"We must expand not only demographic diversity but professional diversity, and I know that President Biden agrees with me on this and this will be something that I will set out to do," Schumer said.
So if we're to have "diversity," should there be a percentage of pedophiles to reflect a percentage of the population? And at the same time, white Christians can't demand their proportionate representation.

Imagine if you're a white going up against an asslifter, and you have that asslifter as a judge. And it gets worse!
The Senate on Thursday also voted 52-46 to elevate U.S. District Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson of the District of Columbia to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. Jackson, whose record on the bench was criticized by some Republicans, is widely considered a contender for any U.S. Supreme Court vacancy that arises during the Biden administration.
It's "racism" if a qualified white is up for consideration, but it's not racism to reserve something for a nigger.
