Tillis pushed his wife down the stairs after she discovered his secret gay life style.

The DC Federal Court is the unelected deep state’s (and Democrats) kangaroo court for political show trials, and social-engineering, under the pretense of “law.”

its where the deep state runs national political narratives, and creates “law” where Congress and the President have not acted.

Its a key bastion of deep-state power, and it can not have a MAGA attorney deciding what cases go before this court.

Thom Thillis has been instructed to throw himself into the breach.

I believe he is up for re-election in 2026. He needs a solid primary challenger. North Carolina can do better.

“ If these Senators delay Ed Martin’s confirmation for just 15 more days, the worst judge in the district, Judge Boasberg, will select DC’s prosecutor rather than the President we voted for.”

Where does the constitution give the judicial branch the power to make Dept. Of Justice (Executive branch) appointments?

from fox news

If an interim U.S. attorney is not confirmed by the Senate within 120 days, however, judges on the federal district court for that district could name a new interim U.S. attorney until the role is filled. Trump antagonist Judge James Boasberg, an Obama-appointed judge at the center of legal efforts targeting Trump’s deportation efforts, is the chief judge of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.

When asked if Tillis is comfortable with the left-wing court picking an interim U.S. attorney, his office told Fox News Digital it is the office’s understanding that Attorney General Pam Bondi can pick an acting replacement, bypassing involvement from federal judges.

“Our understanding is that if the Senate does not confirm a U.S. attorney before an acting U.S. attorney’s term expires, the attorney general can still pick the next acting replacement as long as it is done before the original appointment expires under 28 USC 546,” a spokesman for Tillis’ office told Fox News Digital Tuesday.

Tillis’ office referred Fox News Digital to 28 U.S. Code § 546, which says, “If an appointment expires under subsection (c)(2), the district court for such district may appoint a United States attorney to serve until the vacancy is filled. The order of appointment by the court shall be filed with the clerk of the court.”

Mike Benz’s appearance on the War Room was also interesting because he posited that Sen. Tillis’s home state of North Carolina - and specifically Fort Bragg - was a second railhead of the J6 Fedsurrection via the Army’s psyops and destabilization activities centered there.

Blondi could just file things herself in D.C. and give the acting U.S. Attorney no power to act on her behalf.

They aren’t worried about primaries...they know how stupid the voters are.

It is fascinating how they love to exhibit their power until the real power puts them on notice.
