One of the most anticipated moves of the new president -- his nomination of a justice to fill the vacancy on the U.S. Supreme Court -- has been revealed.
And conservatives are likely to be thrilled by the choice.
The Independent Journal Review (IJR) is reporting that, based on the confirmation from two Trump administration sources, Colorado Judge Neil Gorsuch will be nominated by President Donald Trump to be the next Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court.
The IJR report reads:
Speaking on background, an administration source instrumental to the SCOTUS selection process tells IJR, “Yes. It is Gorsuch. 100 percent. The Hardiman thing is a head fake.” Thomas Hardiman is the other Judge Trump was considering for the vacancy, who is also in Washington, D.C.Gorsuch, currently 49 years old, would become one of the youngest SCOTUS appointments in history. The Colorado native attended Harvard Law with former President Barack Obama and is a "strict Constitutionalist," says IJR.A second source within the Trump administration confirmed IJR’s reporting.

Rat congresscritters’ heads are imploding, they are having a public tantrum.

THANK YOU PRESIDENT TRUMP!
Mrs. Scalia. Classy move.
Love IT!
Trump gets the widow’s blessing.
SO GLAD FOR TODAY! IT’S WHY MANY OF US VOTED FOR TRUMP! Thank You President Trump for your hard work and for keeping your word!
In know ‘Hail to the Chief’ is traditional.. but am I wrong to wish that once, just once, President Trump would walk up to a podium to the Team America theme song?
And he’s a cute wife with longer hair, not dykeish. Conservative women are so much more attractive :)
Agree!
Excellent.
I love our President!
Free Republic stayed up through the decision...it really is a good day.
BTTT!
Judge Up! Trump standing tall! He’s mentioning the Lion Scallia. He moves on. Gets a laugh. Truly hiring people is not easy! It is ,however critical. This guy will be good.
Gorsuch could be a voice over artist!
Judge Gorsuch’s credentials and qualifications are impeccable, beyond question. There is no basis whatsoever for anyone in the Senate to oppose him.
very classy
EXCELLENT CHOICE. I was obviously not familiar with him before being picked..but just listening to him, a good man..a humble man..great family..loves our country!
