MSNBC acknowledges Biden's SCOTUS pledge is an affirmative action pick

[Counselor706]

MSNBC raised eyebrows on Saturday by appearing to tweet a political attack against conservatives from their official account.

"Conservatives don’t mind affirmative action hires so long as the people hired fit their preferred demographic," their account tweeted.

With no link to an article or punctuation to indicate it as a quote, many Twitter users were stunned that the news account published a blatantly partisan take. Others joked MSNBC needed to "reel in the interns" running the account.

Fox News personality Joey Jones tweeted, "Conservatives’ preferred demographic: Applicant best suited for the job, irrespective of identity."

The leading candidate has more experience than 1/3 of the current Justices had prior to their nominations.

There is not one candidate on the short list that doesn't have the career experience.

Any argument otherwise is pure political bullshit

Not to mention that isn't acknowledging the pick is AA. Just that Republicans are bitching about something they don't mind when it helps them. Like Candace Owens or Ben Carson. The latter of which is a brilliant neurosurgeon, once the best in the world Had he been put in the Department of Health and Human Services not Housing and Human Development nobody would have bat an eye.
