Oddly, 7 out of the 9 are Catholics. Considering that up until JFK Catholics were viewed with suspicion, and still are in some circles. it is surprising. Trump appointed 3, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett. Like G.W. Bush's Roberts they can be wild cards. Bush Jr. did better with Alito and G.H.W. Bush picked Thomas. Obama appointed Sotomayor, a Catholic, and Kagan, a Jew. Biden appointed Ketanji Brown Jackson. It's not clear what she is other than dumb. I suppose it could be expected when Barrett wrote an opinion " “We will not dwell on Justice Jackson’s argument, which is at odds with more than two centuries’ worth of precedent, not to mention the Constitution itself. We observe only this: Justice Jackson decries an imperial executive while embracing an imperial judiciary.” However in another case Sotomayor, a liberal female POC wrote in her opinion "I agree with JUSTICE JACKSON that the President cannot restructure federal agencies in a manner inconsistent with congressional mandates. See post,at 13. Here, however, the relevant Executive Order directs agencies to plan reorganizations and reductions in force “consistent with applicable law,” App. to Application for Stay 2a, and the resulting joint memorandum from the Office of Management and Budget and Office of Personnel Management reiterates as much. The plans themselves are not before this Court, at this stage, and we thus have no occasion to consider whether they can and will be carried out consistent with the constraints of law. I join the Court’s stay because it leaves the District Court free to consider those questions in the first instance." In other words, 'Bless your heart, Ketanji, you may be right but that's not what we're talking about here. Pay attention.' Biden got his black Vice President and the first black female on the supreme court; both illustrate the dangers of DEI hires.
