“of 350 great people wanting & expecting to come into Government after being delayed for more than two years, a U.S. record!—”

Judges waiting to be confirmed ?

>>Judges waiting to be confirmed ?

I assumed that included people for the various departments.

Just happened to read Chillum on this today, I think 350 is too many to be just judges:

Trump has gotten 66 judges confirmed this year, compared to Obama’s 49. #Winning— 𝖼𝗁𝗂𝗅𝗅 (@TheChiIIum) December 27, 2018

McConnell’s goal of jamming through judicial nominees at a breakneck pace is being accomplished. #Whiplash— 𝖼𝗁𝗂𝗅𝗅 (@TheChiIIum) December 27, 2018

Long after Trump leaves the seat, his fingerprints will still be on our justice system — two, three, four decades from now. #MakeTheFutureGreat— 𝖼𝗁𝗂𝗅𝗅 (@TheChiIIum) December 27, 2018

As of mid-October, the Senate had confirmed 84 judges so far in this administration — compared to 41 judges who had been confirmed at that point in Obama’s administration.#Sweep— 𝖼𝗁𝗂𝗅𝗅 (@TheChiIIum) December 27, 2018

There are 13 circuit courts which are the highest courts in the country after the Supreme Court — and they’re the ones that Trump and McConnell have been filling rapidly.

Trump’s administration has seen more circuit court judge confirmations than any of the past five presidents.— 𝖼𝗁𝗂𝗅𝗅 (@TheChiIIum) December 27, 2018

48 confirmed nominees are district court judges.

There are 94 district courts in the country and they are the first to hear trials on any cases taking place at a federal level.— 𝖼𝗁𝗂𝗅𝗅 (@TheChiIIum) December 27, 2018

IIRC, it’s not just judges. Lots of Government appointments that have been slow walked and opposed every way they could to keep Trump’s appointments out.
