With Doug Jones there, it will be harder to get confirmations this year. Thanks a lot, Jeff Sessions!

I’ll take a two’fer.

Given eight years, President Trump could reconnect
this country to its Constitutional roots.

If the President appoints two or more Constitutionalists to SCOTUS, he will likely be the greatest president in many generations, single handedly saving the republic.

If you’re a college grad of a private college get active with your alumni association and put fund raising pressure on the school or get yourself appointed to the advisory board.(less effective if public college\university grad! Pubic colleges/universities see the legislature as an infinite well of funds!)

If you’re in the legislature get on the education committee (If not run or put pressure on your legislator!)

If you have some political power/pull/influence in your state get yourself appointed to governing boards - Board of Regents, Visitors, etc. One of things I have noticed recently is the faculty (Studies Professors!) of the community colleges seem to be the worst offenders, usually the local business community has influence here. In all cases make the point about taxpayer ROI - Return On Investment. Studies grads are a poor ROI in term of starting salaries and future earnings. Poor ROI for the state\community, poor ROI for the school in terms of future alumni contributions. Stick with ROI argument, don’t get political left or right, Republican or Democrat. Make them defend a bad wasteful investment. Be prepared to be immediately called a racist or misogynist. Because in a candid moment leftists will admit those “Studies Programs” exist purely to increase the numbers of women and minorities in the faculty lounges and campus populations. Ask those who oppose you, “You don’t think women and minorities can get STEM degrees, business degrees, traditional liberal arts degrees or trade skills (If your community college also teaches trade skills!)?” Make them defend we have to have these economically wasteful “special degrees” for women and minorities. Don’t get off on any left/right, Christian/non-Christian tangents. Stay on message no matter how provoked! Make them defend bad ROI and their racist views that women and minorities can’t do normal college\university class work or trade skills.

“With Doug Jones there, it will be harder to get confirmations this year. Thanks a lot, Jeff Sessions!”

Be at peace.

The way he democrats are acting, coupled with the number of senate seats they are defending this election year, they will be lucky if the republicans don’t walk away with a senate supermajority this fall. Doug Jones is a one-termer and his term may not be as interesting as he might like it to be, particularly is he’s in a super-minority party...

Karen Gren Scholer, Dallas, TX, Northern District of Texas

Terry Doughty, Rayville, LA, Western District of Louisiana

Kari A. Dooley, Hartford, CT, District of Connecticut

Thanks for the continuing updates. They are a great pick me up. President Trump can in 7 more years turn all of the appeals courts. I think even the 9th. There are a lot of openings and retired on duty slots. This would take away the left’s most powerful tactic. Flipping these courts will really make their heads explode.
