A federal judge blocked Mississippi’s DEI ban. Then came the discovery: his order contained incorrect quotes, misidentified parties, and a case that didn’t even exist.
Judge Henry Wingate acknowledged that his law clerk used artificial intelligence to help draft the order. But the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals had plenty to say about what happened next—including calling the district court proceedings “a botch job.”
In this video, we break down Mississippi’s DEI law, the challenge to it, the fake citations, and the appeals court’s blistering criticism. Then we tackle the bigger question: What does this controversy actually tell us about DEI, qualifications, and accountability?
Wingate was a Reagan appointee, a Yale Law School graduate, and an experienced federal judge. So how did an order with these errors make it onto the docket?
You are the jury. Let me know what you think in the comments.
