President Trump has successfully appointed six judges to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.
Prior to Trump taking office, the Ninth Circuit had 19 Democratic appointees, 6 Republican appointees, and four vacancies, and is the most overturned court of appeals in the country. In May, the U.S. Senate confirmed two Trump nominees, Kenneth Lee and Daniel Collins, the fifth and six appointed judges.
Kenneth Lee The U.S. Senate confirmed Collins’ nomination by a 53-46 vote on May 21, 2019. He received commission on May 22, 2019. California’s home-state Senators Dianne Feinstein (D) and Kamala Harris (D) voted against Collins’ nomination.
Daniel Collins Senators confirmed Kenneth Lee’s nomination on a party-line 52-45 vote, giving President Trump his 40th circuit judge since taking office.
The Senate Judiciary Committee held a hearing on the third nominee, Daniel Aaron Bress, May 22. If he is confirmed by the committee, President Trump will have appointed seven judges to the Ninth Circuit.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein wrote an op ed about her objection: “Daniel Bress, was born in California but practices law in Washington, D.C., and lives in Virginia. In fact, since graduating from high school, Mr. Bress has only lived in California for one year and has been on the east coast for college, law school and the rest of his legal career.”
Daniel Bress “Currently the court is comprised of 16 judges appointed by Democratic presidents and 11 judges appointed by Republican presidents,” the Epoch Times reported. “If Trump successfully fills the two vacant seats, it would place the court at 16 Democratic appointed judges and 13 Republican appointed judges. This would be unprecedented for the California-based circuit court, which has included judges such as the late Stephen Reinhardt, often called the ‘liberal lion’ of the Ninth Circuit.”

We don’t see enough stories of real progress being made to turn back the insidious tide of liberalism.
“Liberal lions” can kiss my a$$
““Liberal lions” can kiss my a$$”
There are no liberal lions. Just liberal weasels.
So true. Leftism is the Bubonic Plague of the 21st century.

Winning!
They didn't vote AGAINST the nominee! They voted for, and with, the Communist Party! Formerly the Democrat Party.
DiFi and her new (ineligible prez fund raiser) Harris have made asses of themselves, yet again...opposing apparently good nominees for zero valid reason
While libtards are caterwauling about impeachment, President Trump upends the Nonth Circuit.
The court that is overturned 88% of the time.
This is YUGE.
I guess the California Globe has nothing else to write about, or they are just slow because that 6th judge was confirmed by the senate over 2 weeks ago.
old news for those that follow the news......
“Sen. Dianne Feinstein wrote an op ed about her objection: “Daniel Bress, was born in California but practices law in Washington, D.C., and lives in Virginia.

None of that would matter to DiFi if Judge Bress had a “D” behind his name. Heck, half the D’s in congress don’t really live in their congressional districts.
Daniel Bress “Currently the courtis comprised ofcomprises 16 judges appointed by Democratic presidents and 11 judges appointed by Republican presidents,” the Epoch Times reported.
THANK YOU!
The use of “comprised of” instead of “composed of” drives me nuts.
Still 16 DEm judges
While liberals in in knots over the Supreme Court, Trump is quietly stacking all the rest of them.
You’re welcome, milagro. It’s a major pet peeve of mine, too! God bless.
Nancy Pelosi...... California grl to the core.
Hillary clinton....... New York born and raised
Bobby Kennedy...... New York born and raised
Dems again vote against a minority appointment. Kenneth Lee will be the first Appelate Judge born in Korea. Dare we call it racism?
Right you are, this is good of course but it’s not a big deal. The Rats still have a solid majority. Actually with these SOB’s a one vote majority is as good as a hundred.
