Justice Stephen Breyer's upcoming retirement from the Supreme Court was reported late Wednesday morning, and by Wednesday night, Fox News and other right-wing outlets already had their narrative: President Joe Biden's new nominee is proof that a white man can't catch a break in the U.S. of A.
Mind you, there is no nominee yet, though potential shortlists have been floated. On the campaign trail, Biden promised to nominate a Black woman for the court, a promise he reiterated from the White House on Thursday. "I've made no decision except one, the person I will nominate will be someone of extraordinary qualifications, character and experience and that person will be the first black woman ever nominated to the United States Supreme Court."
