This will be a weekly post.
Count remains at 84 judges confirmed.
53 District Court judges
29 Circuit Court judges
2 Supreme Court justices
The Farr nomination (district seat in NC) was killed because he (OMG!) helped Jesse Helms get reelected. Trump can renominate but will likely pick somebody else.
In 34 days, Jeff Flake's senatorship ends!
FlaKKKe always “reaches around” the aisle for his good buddy DemoKKKrat pals.
He's wearing OUR jersey.
You actually think that Ruth Bader Corpseburg is making judicial decisions these days?
Her law clerks are the real "Supreme Court justice". Amazing they can all fit in her chair.
"Muh Principles" are for Fejj FlaKKKe and "The Mailman".
As in - he's the girl...
And McConnell allows Flake to get away with this ?!
Well, I dont see much that McConnell can do to Flake at the moment. Flake is wanting the lime-lite and McConnell is being smart by basically ignoring him and refusing to play his game. McConnell will have two years to appoint conservative judges. And, he now has the headcount to not be held hostage by the likes of Murkowski, Collins, Flake, McCain.
way to go...... when your reason fails completely, blame Mitch. It’s easy and requires no thought
Thanks for the info. The media is one-sided and all about disinformation, so it is easy to discount it when anything negative is reported. When everything under the sun is “racist” then really nothing is anymore and people tune it out. That, and the double standards that are loudly and proudly engaged in by the other side. Still, it is important that a judge have no history of questionable dealings (again, we live in an age of disinformation where lies get made up for one side while blatant crimes are protected). Maybe pick someone else and move on. I especially don’t like or trust Flake but I would want more information.
Grassley is right. Take it out of the hands of Flake and the two GOP women traitors.
Notice how no Democrat ever pulls what Flake is pulling?

As someone posted, take it to the floor directly. The 3rd circuit is on the verge of being flipped pending Paul Matey being confirmed, at the same time challenges to anti-gun legislation are moving through there. But the idiot Flake is holding up confirmation. We could sure use the help now.
Mr. Flake has an expiration date as a US Senator and its coming soon.
But I hope Mike Pence can help move some of the nominees in the interim.
Flake is like a hemorrhoid. Just a pain in the a$$.
I believe he could bring the nomination to the floor without committee approval.
Instead he uses flake as a convenient excuse to drop the ball on judges.
“Flake is like a hemorrhoid. Just a pain in the a$$.”
Jeff Flake is like a hicky on a hemorrhoid, the MSN can’t resist him.
Isn’t Farr a graduate of Hillsdale college ?
Yes, Jeff Flake and Tim Scott did us no favors this week. We’ll have to wait them out a month until reinforcements come in.
Those 34 days cannot go by fast enough, all the while this Congress does not appear supportive of anything Trump has requested. Just imagine what Repubs could have accomplished during the past 24 months if the party he ran under would have supported him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jeff Flake is a very sick, hateful man. JMHO
This bastards days are numbered....he will not be fondly remembered by any one other than democrats....who see him as a useful idiot!!!
Yep. Flake’s a creepy guy...
