Great. Trump is doing the important things, putting in sane judges who rule based on the law.

She doesn’t say, but I’m guessing she is referring to the 9th District Court that provides so many rulings that are overturned. Just a guess though as to who she may have been referring to.

Barbara Bailey Jongbloed is a registered Democrat. Of course, that doesn’t necessarily mean that she’s an Agendanista/Activist judge.

In any case, Lindsey Graham needs to end the Blue Slip process for District Judges just as his predecessors eliminated it for Appeals Judges. Otherwise, in Blue States such as Connecticut, California and Washington we could end up with Judges that the left is very comfortable with.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell got rid of the blue slip nonsense for all Federal judges almost two years ago ... it’s got nothing to do with the Judiciary Committee Chair as it was a Senate rule hot a committee rule (now abolished by Mitch) ...

********************************************
I wish that were true but IT’S NOT TRUE. The blue slip process was eliminated for Supreme Court and Appeals Court nominees — but NOT FOR DISTRICT COURT JUDGE nominees.

You may be confusing the elimination of the 60 vote requirement for cloture of judicial nominees. THAT has been eliminated for all judicial levels and only 5o votes are now required for cloture.

In 2017 Trump broke the record for Appellate Court appointments.
In 2018 Trump broke his 2017 record.
In 2019 Trump is on pace to break his 2018 record

I believe Trump has already appointed 43 Appellate Court Judges
or 24% of All Appellate Court Judges.
If the Two new Appellate Court Judges are confirmed that will make
25%

Trump has flipped 2 Appellate Courts and impacted the 9th

MAGA

Who cares honestly truly who cares?
You’re not making America Great Again.
You are destroying it by embracing the fallacy of judicial supremacy these Appellate Courts and Circuit Courts do not have a damn thing to do with your very freedoms and liberties that is afforded too you in the Constitution.
Soo stop worshipping at their altars and worship at the altar of God who gives you your freedom and liberty.

The Courts don’t a have thing too with abolishing human abortion there are constitutional mechanisms are already put in place too fully abolish human abortion
without the courts. The courts have no moral legal standing too rule at all in regards too human abortion or anything that is not confined too the proper checks and balances of the judicial branch.
For you too empower the judges with such unregulated unconstitutional powers puts the blood of 70 million babies on your hands!!!!!!!!

I’m not silly at all your worship upon the altars of judicial supremacy has led too the deaths of millions of babies.
The Courts have no legal standing or moral authority too rule on abolishing human abortion at all or anything for that matter in regards to the powers of checks and balances between the judiciary and the government to think otherwise is the death knoll of the Constitutional Republic.

I’m not nuts you’ve bought into the lies of judicial supremacy the courts have no powers too rule upon my rights and liberties that are expressly given too me in the Constitution.the declaration of Independence that is not confined to them in the proper checks and balances.
Our founders never ever gave the judiciary any unconstitutional uspering powers to enslave us and the destroy the Republic.
So again I say who cares who commie Trump puts in the judiciary or who he doesn’t?
