12 new judges confirmed today by the Senate.
Total is now 187.
Trump isn't impeached til House transmits to Senate, per a Harvard Law professor who was a witness for House Democrats.
“If the articles are not transmitted, Trump could legitimately say that he wasn’t truly impeached at all,“ @NoahRFeldman writes. https://t.co/urzhneXlo8— Jennifer Jacobs (@JenniferJJacobs) December 19, 2019
