The Judiciary Committee cleared eight more judicial nominees Thursday, giving GOP leaders a total of 49 judges ready to be confirmed by the whole Senate.
The votes the first since the committees nasty fight over Supreme Court Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh cleared seven district court nominees and one circuit court pick.
That nominee, Jonathan A. Kobes for the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, was approved on a party-line vote.
Democrats said Mr. Kobes, who works as a lawyer for Sen. Mike Rounds, South Dakota Republican, wasnt ready to be a judge, citing the American Bar Associations rating of him as unqualified.

Of course, the left defines anyone as “unqualified” if they’re not a leftist.
On the other hand, we’re supposed to let any and all leftists through without complaint because, after all, that’s fair.
Have I mentioned yet today how much I hate these people?
It wouldn’t surprise me, that shyster makes ambulance chasers look honest.
Well there ya go, the constitutionally enshrined role of the ABA in the selection process of judges is .... wait, were talking about the ABA having an opinion and that's why the guy shouldn't be a judge? The ABA? Hah hah hah hah hah hah hah! That's a good one!
Translation: Kobes is REALLY Conservative.
Yeah but Elena Kahan was so qualified to be on the SCOTUS with all her years of experience as a judge...........
26 appellate judges confirmed 14 in the hopper. I just hope suicide rate us up for libs
Avenutty so totally destroyed the DemoCommie case against Brett Kavanaugh that I would be surprised that there wasn’t a payday in it for him and Slutnick from people on our side...
Bump!
