Mitch McConnell rams through six Trump judges in 30 hours after blocking coronavirus aid for months

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

The Republican-led Senate confirmed six of President Donald Trump's judicial nominees to lifetime appointments over two days this week, even though it has delayed crucial coronavirus relief since May.

The Senate filled four federal vacancies in California and two in Illinois, Bloomberg Law reported. It is also expected to confirm two additional Illinois judges in short order.

"The Senate has confirmed six of Trump's judicial nominees in the past 30 hours," tweeted Vanita Gupta, the president and CEO of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights. "These are lifetime appointments that McConnell's pushing through instead of the HEROES Act & other crucial legislation."

Three of the judges were appointed to seats covering Los Angeles, while another was appointed to a seat covering San Diego. There are 11 additional nominees to California courts awaiting Senate confirmation.

2. Is there any way these unqualified Trump judges can be sidelined?

Or is the country stuck with bozos on the bench for a generation?? !!

3. Congress could impeach them

But that's highly unlikely.

6. I imagine they'd have to do something impeachable first.

I was really just wondering if they could all be reassigned to some faraway district where they can't do harm our break anything

7. You're a great poster, YMBL, and I hate to nitpick, but:

McConnell didn't ram those nominees through. There was no need for that.

On the contrary, they just saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaailed right on through.

Objections? So what? All that counts is that Republican majority. Nothing else matters.

The next nominees, who are already in the pipeline? Nothing's going to stop them either.

Getting Trump's nominees approved takes McConnell about as much effort as pouring a cup of coffee.

There will be no relief until January at the earliest.

Okay?
