—99 district judges
—43 circuit judges
—2 Supreme Court justices
An extraordinary pace.
All lifetime appointments, nearly all of them are in their 30s, 40s or 50s.
Two more circuit court nominees coming up.
Granite has said he would honor blue slips for district judges, which is why there has been a slowdown. We pretty much have all red state district judges confirmed.
With the House in an insane crazy breakdown, its doubly- important that the Senate begin to function.
When the Senate reconvened after its lengthy summer break, it confirmed 6 judges that were supposed to be confirmed in June.
*************************************************
And of those 6, 2 were confirmed by VOICE VOTE (I.e., not a single Democrat objected). When was the last time that happened in this time of Resistance? 2 more were confirmed by votes of 94 - 0 and 90 - 1 respectively. That is certainly not resistance. The last 2 had 13 & 18 votes against them; far lower than the standard No votes in the high 30s and high 40s.
What those votes tell me is that Schumer rubber stamped these 6.
Haven’t they been on vacation ,LOL
Lindsay Graham needs to shut the hell up about Syria and get back to work confirming judges.
McComical tries to act like a Trump supporter but I think he is like Paul the Magnificent RINO Ryan.
Because he and everyone else in congress is a pissant and is dirtier than hell and all their moving mouths can do for US is talk down TRUMP and impeachment!
Lock them all up! Marshall LAW!
Mitch needs to point the way forward.
“Mitch is dragging his feet again.”
really? how do you know that? Exactly how many judicial nominations are before the Senate right now that are having their feet “dragged” by Mitch? or are you just making up bullshit?
