They don't much like the other edge of the sword do they?
Elections have consequences.
Oh, and two more Circuit judges will be confirmed to the 9th circuit this week!
The 9th circuit will have a 16-13 Democrat majority, as opposed to the 23-6 Democrat majority at the beginning of Trump’s term.
There will be far fewer society-changing rulings going forward!
” the hardline conservative Brett Kavanaugh “
Really!
Does this author expect anyone to read after that?
Tears must be flowing in the aisles at Vox as this is published!
And Vox is a Leftist site. Weird.
Trump is paving the way for re-establishment of slavery for blacks and the deportation and eventual extermination of all LGBTQs! (/liberal)
I told many friends ahead of 2016 that it was vitally important with regards to the Supreme Court. I admit that rejuvenating the lower courts’ totally eluded my thoughts.
I’m SO glad we elected a PRESIDENT who saw the whole chessboard.
The truth is, by worshipping at the altar of Trump, Republicans haven’t simply ensured conservative dominance of one branch of government. They may have entrenched conservative governance for decades.
What does it matter that there are these judges when Trump’s AG picks never bring any democrap criminal cases to them?
Two thoughts.
1. Ha Ha Ha Ha Suck it Vox.
2. Still a ways to go just to counter balance the damage Obama did. 7 more Circuit Court judges and about 150 District Court judges before the courts will have simply been restored to where they were in 2008.
this is why we need to make sure after the trump presidency is over that we get another republican in....we need to seal the conservative take over of the court so that all hope is lost for activists wanting to use the courts as a way of enacting policies that could not be brought through congress
God Bless the Resistance! Their opposition to Trump has been so complete and vile that the dealmaker has no incentive to appease anyone other than his own base in terms of judicial appointments.
