“ in a letter sent to the White House the same day, Bounds’ two home-state senators — Democrats Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley of Oregon — announced they would not return a “blue slip” for Bounds’ nomination to the Senate Judiciary Committee. “

Think Grassley is going to ignore the Blue Slip for appellate nominees, but keep it for circuit.
The Dems are burning the Senate down.

Yes they are. So many rules in the Senate. But what happens when we are the minority? I would guess not the same thing.
