I wonder how we are doing filling the backlog of Federal judges that are open. I heard there were about 150 openings.

No matter how fast it can’t be fast enough. The vetting of these people has to be of the most thorough nature even small flaws could be decisive.

The Dems, of course, are using the rules to slow-roll the confirmations. I think that the McConnell, when he kicked-butt (hard to even write that) regarding the filibuster, also lowered the amount of stalling time that the Dems will have available for future nominees.
