“Former committee chair Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), meanwhile, slammed Grassley for acceding to pressure from Republicans and reversing the blue-slip tradition that had allowed senators to block judicial nominees from their home states.”
Tough toenails Leaky! Screw your “blue slip tradition!” Time for ALL of the Unconstitutional Senate TRADITIONS to be done away with! Go out and by yourself some industrial strength “Depends,” in will help you deal with the continual crapping of your own pants that is occurring with each judicial appointment.
Just imagine the heads exploding on both sides when Senator Moore does not sign on the the required unanimous vote to keep the Senate in pro-forma over the Christmas Holiday. Trump will be unwrapping lots of recess appointments.
