No Judges Confirmed This Week

Posted on 01/20/2018 3:53:49 AM PST by cotton1706

This will be a weekly post.

Confirmation count remains at 23 confirmed.

However, Chuck Grassley moved 17 judges out of committee to the floor this week.

Expect to see McConnell begin plowing through them.

Yep, 17 new judges, 3 on the Appellate Courts. Outstanding...hopefully McConnell uses the shutdown time to start getting them confirmed.

Americans expect McConnell to work against the President
and American people, as he and Ryan have done.

REMOVE THEM.

I want those stupid granny glasses taken off Schumer’s face with a smart, closed right hand.

Keep it up Mitch. Between getting the tax bill approved and a record number of conservative appointments, I say thank you and thank you again. Some of us are grateful.

Schumer reminds me of ‘Monty Burns.’ The power plant owner on the Simpsons TV show. But not as intelligent.

I favor a baseball bat from Louisville.

Mitch is definitely dragging his feet to avoid confirmation of conservative judges

Although McConnell could be faster, he has confirmed more judges in history. I give him credit for that.
