No Judges Confirmed This Week

Posted on 02/16/2019 3:57:51 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

44 judges are currently pending on the Senate floor.

And the Senate Rules Committee voted to reduce debate time for executive and district court nominees from 30 hours to 2 hours. This change will need to be voted on the floor, likely needing the "nuclear option" which will likely happen and succeed.

FOUR MONTHS with no appointments

Last week you told me that McTurtle would now work with “deliberate speed” on President Trump’s judicial nominations.

Instead, as AA mentioned above, McTurtle and the Republicans pushed through the Harris “lynching” ammendment....hiding behind a VOICE VOTE thereby proving their contemptable cowardice.

They also gave the thumbs up to that spending bill.

The Republican Party is an enemy of the American people and
McTurtle is their leader!!!

The repubs are such quislings. They despise Free America and Free Americans. Pathetic.

There can be no doubt the United States Senate is the bottom of the beltway sewer.

Maybe McTurtle will get to it some time this century. The 3rd circuit is set to flip and there’s a nominee that’s been waiting for months for a vote to make it happen.
