Senator Mazie Hirono (D-HI) proved once again earlier this week why she is considered arguably the dumbest member of Congress after getting thoroughly humiliated by an anti-woke conservative witness.
The Senate Judiciary Subcommittee held a hearing on Wednesday entitled “Ending Illegal DEI Discrimination & Preferences: Enforcing Our Civil Rights Laws.” Multiple witnesses, including Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon, appeared to discuss the blatant unconstitutionality of the racist practice.
At one point in the hearing, Hirono tried to entrap Gene Hamilton, the President and co-founder of America First Legal, with a silly gotcha question that blew up in her face.
The Hawaii senator demanded whether any court had declared DEI unconstitutional, believing the answer was “no.” Hamilton, though, came ready and pointed out that the Supreme Court declared the use of DEI unconstitutional in Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard. In this case, the Court ruled that race-based affirmative action programs in most college admissions violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. Affirmative action is a type of DEI policy.
Hirono, though, thought the ruling did no such thing and believed Hamilton had face-planted. Hamilton then delivered a brutal burn when he suggested that Hirono do something she is not used to.
WATCH:
WRECKED.
Hirono: Has any court said that DEI is unconstitutional? Yes or no?
Hamilton: Yes.
Hirono: Which court?
Hamilton: The United States Supreme Court.
Hirono: I disagree with you…
Hamilton: You can go read it yourself.

Given how dumb Hirono is, whether she reads at all is an open question.
