Judge Sullivan got his first federal job from Ronald Reagan.

George H.W. Bush promoted him.

The GOP never learns - or cares?

Trump had three District judges approved last week.

Tragically, 21, 23, and 26 Democrat Senators helped to confirm them.

None of those “newbies” will ever be reliable Conservatives.

“Judge Sullivan got his first federal job from Ronald Reagan.”
**************************************
Only in a technical sense. Sullivan’s first “federal” judgeship was as a Superior Court of the District of Columbia judge (i.e., a “city” judge who heard local DC municipal cases). DC “city” judge position recommendations (by the DC Mayor) are routinely “rubber stamped” by whoever is President so long as the nominee meets the qualifications.

Sullivan was later nominated to be a judge who actually hears FEDERAL cases by Jimmy Carter. That was for his CURRENT position as a judge on the UNITED STATES District Court for the District of Columbia. He hears US federal cases.
