(Washington, D.C.) Today in her first public comments after Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy announced his retirement from the nations highest court, handing President Trump a second Supreme Court nomination opportunity, U.S. Senator Patty Murray (D-WA) voiced the concerns of millions of people across the country about considering a nomination from a president who has spent every day in office testing the limits of the Constitution. In remarks on the Senate floor, Senator Murray evoked the history of Robert Borks withdrawn nomination and outlined whats at stake if President Trump and Republicans instead move forward with nominating an ideologically-extreme candidate, adding that families across the country will be paying attention to their actions and holding them accountable.

The Leftist machinations will be so fun to watch.
Hasn’t the SCOTUS ruled on Senators wearing sneakers?
That isn’t an alarm! She’s been eating at Taco Bell!
They picked this boob to get in front of the camera ?
Kamela harris and schemer have had their say.
It will be fun to see all the different ways democrats will rail against the inevitable when they know full well that they are absolutely impotent so long as the Republicans work together.
Its interesting that the left is so shook up about abortion, thus demonstrating they know full well its illegitimate and the only reason they have it is because an activist court pushed it down the American throat.
They dont care if what they want is right or wrong; wanting it MAKES something legitimate to them.
But the lefties had NO problem with Obama putting in Kagan in 2010, before the midterm elections..he had every right to do it, and so does President Trump..so suck it up buttercup
Was Ms. Murray having flashbacks to the Obama years when she stated this? Or, maybe there is some, secret constitution she is referring to because it certainly isn't the U.S. Constitution.
Dumber than a brick in tennis shoes. How did she ever get reelected?
Yup. To a leftist, what’s right is whatever it is they want it to be. Morally wrong is anything standing in the way of that.
I think Patty has gotten confused about what president was testing the limits of the constitution. President Trump has mostly been undoing some of that.
Look for Corner, Flake and McLame to ensure this goes FUBAR until after the election...
"progress" toward WHAT?!?!?!? She refers to the movement AWAY FROM the Constitutional Foundation of this great country! This country was made for a virtuous people and no other. The liberals REJECT "virtue" as it is truly defined.
I cant take Holly Hobbie seriously unless shes wearing her bonnet.
She is such a puppet of the dem caucus. And a dolt too.
Because Seattle wanted her. The rest of us didnt.
Trump hasn’t named a nominee and the commies are already bringing up Robert Bork. This circus will make the Bork nomination look like a stroll in the park.
