White House plans to send 50 judicial nominees to new Congress

(CNN)The White House on Tuesday night announced its intention to renominate 50 judicial nominees, rekindling a battle between Republicans, who hope to capitalize on their record-breaking judicial success from the last Congress, and Democrats, who have lashed out at some of President Donald Trump's more controversial nominees.

The names were put forward again on Tuesday because their nominations weren't acted upon before the end of the last congressional session.
The new nominations come as key players in the judicial confirmation wars are no longer involved. Former White House counsel Don McGahn -- who considered judicial nominees one of his top priorities -- has left the administration and former Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley, an Iowa Republican, has moved over to the Finance Committee.

What's your deep state theory on these judges and grasley going to finance?

I don't know if I have one specifically... The record number of judicial appointments continues, and will continue under Graham. The appointing of conservative (legally speaking) judges will do lasting good for the country long after Trump is gone. 

 

Grassley is not running for another term. He steered the ship through the discovery phase of the process while behind the scenes the party was cleansed of No-Name's *****ery. Now that the judicial committee will be moving into a new, more aggressive phase of the roll out - and now that No Name isn't around to hold people hostage - Graham and his legal background make more sense to head the committee than a lame duck Chuck who never practiced law. 

 

Chuck still has important work to do.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg watch nears the end of its second month
American Thinker, by Taylor Day

 

Original Article

 

It has been 54 days since the public laid eyes on the 85-year-old Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and her absence is prompting calls for proof of life. The last time she was seen was on December 6, 2018, when she heard arguments in person at the Court. Since then, she underwent surgery on December 21 of last year after two cancerous growths from her left lung were discovered and removed. All official statements have been issued by people close to her and meant to assure the public that she is recovering quietly.

 

 

 

 

 

It is the middle of the court's session.  How would this be covered, if it was Justice Thomas ?

I've been a bit reluctant to join in whenever someone says "prove she's okay."

 

But the article reminds us about the calls to see Melania when she was out of the spotlight for 19 days.

Some left-leaning voices have condemned the calls for proof that Ruth Bader Ginsburg is still capable of performing her duties as justice.  In a display of hypocrisy that is now too common, here is an article from CNN demanding the same confirmation after First Lady Melania Trump avoided the public for 19 days after a minor operation.

Dems must be pissing themselves right now.

She's fine.  She's just in a coma, like most progressives.
