“How many judges does linda have lined up for the turtle?”
*******************************************
I agree with Cotton that both McConnell and Graham can do far, far better on the federal judge front. Last week the Senate voted on and confirmed ZERO District Court nominees. The week preceding that the Senate voted on and confirmed ZERO District Court nominees. Earlier in September the Senate returned from a six week summer recess and confirmed the six judges that Connor mentioned. And now they’re on yet another recess for two weeks.
When Trump assumed office there were 86 vacant District Court judgeships. You know, the District Judgeships which sabotage President Trump when they’re occupied by an agenda-driven ‘RAT appointee. The number of vacancies has increased and there are now 97 vacant District Court judgeships.
There are 71 of Trump’s Judicial nominees pending confirmation in the Senate (of which 51 are pending in Lindsey Graham’s Judiciary Committee). This is INEXCUSABLE! Graham needs to no longer allow the DemocRATS to use the Blue Slip process to stop consideration of Trump’s nominees. And McConnell needs to schedule confirmation votes on nominees quicker after they’re out of the Judiciary Committee
Lots of new and pending nominations for district judges from CA to go along with NY and other 2 Senator rat states. Could there be a package deal coming.
Chunk of ckt judges for a horse pile of District judges?
