No Judges Confirmed This Week (but 44 moved from committee to floor)

Posted on 02/09/2019 4:45:51 AM PST by cotton1706

This will be a weekly post.

Count remains at 85 judges confirmed.

53 District Court judges

30 Circuit Court judges

2 Supreme Court justices

On Thursday the Senate Judiciary Committee voted to send 44 of President Trump's judicial nominees to the floor.

McConnell can now begin scheduling votes to confirm them.

And there's still talk about changing the 30 hour debate rule to 8 or even 2 hours.

In the last (almost) four months since the week ending 10/13/18, the Senate has approved one...ONE...ONE...ONE of the President's judicial nominees....and the President's "party" controls the Senate.

Great job GOP (/s)

Thanks for this report, cotton.

We’ll see if McConnell will start ramming them through the full Senate (or not).

I tweeted Trump and McConnell the Turdle

Told Turdle to wake up, there are so many Judges, AG, UN ambassador and many others. McConnell is a do nothing Senator.

Not fighting for Trump to end the witch hunt, get wall funding, never re intoduced repeal of Obamacare, no replacement bill (so we lost house).

Mitch is ineffective Swamp creature.

Well, that’s because of Jefff Flake, the anti-conservative McCain minion.

But he’s gone from both the Judiciary Committee and the Senate now.

So progress can now move at deliberate speed.

Who put Flake on the committee?
Who left him on the committee, knowing what Flake was going to do, even though he had the powet to remove him?
