Biden just withdrew a pile of nominees (32!) that Trump's team put forward in his final days in office.
Among them: 1 appeals court nominee and 2 district court nominees.

This is very good news.

(22,568 posts)Joe is doing exactly what I hope he would do -- rolling back Chump's exec orders and appointments, etc. And so fast -- boom, boom, boom!
If I were a cartoonist, I'd draw Joe taking a big old eraser to a great big board listing all of Chump's misdeeds. I just LOVE this!

(18,495 posts).... he will win a stronger majority in both the House and Senate come the 2022 mid-terms.
Then he can really stomp on the progressive gas pedal and shift his administration into high gear to win 2024.

(102,693 posts)Joe would be best for this term. I wanted someone who already knew how to drive the bus, lots of experience, and could jump into the driver's seat on day one to steer us away from the abyss ahead. And he is proving that he is exactly that, even if I really didn't want to vote for another old, white guy.

(13,015 posts)Right! Now he is not running the world any more while the boss just plays. This saggy jowels seemed to be hanging lower lately.
Keep that boot up the asses Joe. Sleepy my ass. The man seems to be fueled with meth.
Unity, hahahahaha. Forget that noise.

(3,748 posts)I have been dreaming of this moment for 4 years. I have spent 4 years visualizing someone coming in and undoing everything trump did. Just fire EVERY person trump put in place and rehire everyone he got rid of.

(53,175 posts)The answer is simple: He recited the oath, gave his speech, then walked into the White House and went straight to work.
And he hasn't stopped. If this is what dementia looks like, I'd hate to see him without it.

(5,276 posts)I am pumped that he is fiercely trying to right the ship as best he can and that certainly includes Judges.
That said at least a few Republican appointed Judges, including those appointed by Twitler, rebuffed Trumps legal nonsense trying to steal the election.....thankfully.

(24,187 posts)Obama got 330 judges onto the bench, Trump got 230, Biden will easily get 200 so 530 of the last 760 Federal judges will have been named by Dems.
And there is pent up retirements, dozens of more liberal judges held out until Joe was in office to retire, you're going to see a ton this year.
SCOTUS is another matter, Reps stole 2 seats. But Breyer should retire, and all we need is Thomas or Alito to leave and it's back to being OK.
