“I believe senators Harris and Feinstein disagree. They are pissed that the blue slip has been taken away.”
*******************************************
It’s been taken away only for Appeals Court Judges. It’s alive and well (thanks to Lindsey Graham) at the District Court level.

Article 2 of Impeachment.
“A California judge is crippling the nation’s immigration enforcement system..”
Great system we have here. Where are the supremes on this shit?
They’re so OK with Flimsey Grahamnesty’s THREE previous attempts to give away our country that they want him to have a FOURTH chance to give the Democrats a permanent majority.

I’m more concerned with where Lindsey Graham is on this crap.
Among the VACANT District Court Judgeships are:
13 in New York State (of which 6 are in the Southern District of New York).
6 in New Jersey.
14 in California.
4 in Washington State.
Since he has been in office, President Trump has not been able to get a single District Court judge—Thanks to LINDSEY GRAHAM and the Blue Slip process that he allows the DemocRATS to use as an unconstitutional VETO of Trump’s judicial appointment powers.
Can you imagine how much better things would be if the Southern District of New York included 6 Trump judges? Can you imagine if the District Courts in California included 14 young Trump judges whose names would be included when the random draws are made to assign Judges to new cases?
MR. GRAHAM, TEAR DOWN THAT ‘“BLUE SLIP” WAL!
Correction:
“President Trump has not been able to get a single District Court judge CONFIRMED IN THOSE FOUR STATES.”

ONE MORON IN A BLACK ROBE CRIPPLES IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT
The president has declared an emergency, Congress failed to override. Why is he paying attention to judges.
Move the damn enforcement center out of CA. easy easy!!! There must be a place in AZ. or NM that can handle the enforcement center!!!
I thought Mitch did away with that?
“I thought Mitch did away with that?”

No, he didn’t eliminate the Blue Slip for District Judges, only for appellate judges. What Mitch did do (earlier this year) was change the cloture debate time for District Court Judges from 30 hours to 2 hours. THAT was a very good change. But it might as well be 10,000 hours for those who Lindsey Graham won’t let out of the Judiciary Committee because of the DemocRATS’ abuse of the Blue Slip process,
There will actually be a NEW YORK District Court nominee who is scheduled to receive a confirmation vote next week when the Senate returns from recess. I’m not sure why Schumer and Graham have allowed this unless they’re concerned about more people becoming aware of this Blue Slip “Blue Wall”. I want to see the Judicial Nominee flood gates open.
