"She is evil, chosen solely because she checked identity politics boxes. Another DEI hire. It always ends badly," Mike Cernovich, a prominent rightwing influencer and conspiracy theorist, wrote on X, referencing diversity, equity and inclusion policies, which Republicans have demonized.

Fox News host Mark Levin claimed in an online post that Barrett had "deceived people into thinking she was a reliable constitutionalist". He added: "The power has gone to her head. It happens with frightening regularity the last half-century."

Laura Loomer, the rightwing activist who repeatedly traveled with Trump during his 2024 campaign, went even further. She posted a picture of Coney Barrett's family, which includes two adopted Black children, and wrote:

"Amy Coney Barrett was a DEI appointee." Jack Posobiec, a popular Maga figure with more than 3m followers on X, posted that Coney Barrett was a "DEI judge"."
