Twitter: Murkowski will not vote to confirm SCOTUS nomination before inauguration
Alaska Public Media ^ | September 18, 2020 | Liz Ruskin

Posted on 09/18/2020 5:08:22 PM PDT by balch3

Alaska's @lisamurkowski said today she won't confirm a new SCOTUS justice until after the inauguration day. Fair is fair, she says. My colleague @kcgrove will have a story shortly.

All federal funds to Alaska should be cut off.

Riots would ensue. That is unacceptable and we need a full Supreme Court. Republicans need to push forward because of that.

Are there any female black Muslim conservatives on Trump’s list?

I would think there would be pressure by the Mormon church on Romney to accept a Trump nominee .

What’s the name of that Muslim lady who used to be a guest on Fox quite often?

She was a conservative.

What’s ironic (unfortunately) is that the Republican SCOTUS picks have been so unreliable in landmark cases that very few intelligent people probably see the Supreme Court as a major campaign issue anymore.

Tucker just announced the Ginsburg’s death bed wish was not to be replaced by Trump.

Don’t count your chickens on Roberts just yet. If it’s 4-4 he will vote with the Dems.

She won the first time after Ted Stevens got raided by the FBI. After the election the case was dropped. Was that obama?

She won because Democrats wrote her name in en masse. She is beholden to the Democrats.

Maybe we could make a deal with Putin to give it back to Russia.

“If the GOP Majority Senate refuses to vote on a nominee until after inauguration day or votes down Trumps nominee, the GOP is finished.”

The GOP was finished with Trump’s election in 2016. Its largely open boarders, lover of Chinese money and products, and lets get along with the democrats and liberal press. Trouble is, the alternate party has gone full communist.

Only reason Obama did not nominate a replacement for Scalia was because the Republicans held the Senate at the time.

Obama was expecting Hillary to win and give Dems control of the Senate so did not sweat it all that much.
