Meet racist republican U.S. District Judge Lynn Hughes

U.S. District Judge Lynn Hughes a Reagan appointee is an open racist and doesn’t care who knows it.

In that ex parte hearing, during which only Texas Department of Criminal Justice lawyers were present, Hughes launched into a colloquy on Adolf Hitler’s use of swastikas, the origin of Caucasians and the futility of diversity programs at universities. He quoted Eleanor Roosevelt opining that “staffs of one color always work better.” It is not the first time Hughes’ views on race during discrimination cases have attracted attention. In January, the 5th Circuit admonished Hughes for dismissing a racist slur as “political” and opining that “no black individually and no blacks collectively owns [sic] the sensitivity rights to fried chicken or anything else.”
