President Trump Wednesday tapped Steven Menashi, a White House lawyer, to serve as a judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit.

Menashi currently works as a special assistant and senior associate counsel to the president. Prior to joining the White House, he served as acting general counsel at the Department of Education, taught law at George Mason University and worked in private practice.

Menashi's recommendation was announced along with five nominations for district court judgeships, two nominations for U.S. attorney and two for U.S. marshal.

"This is an outstanding slate of judicial nominees. President Trump continues delivering on his promise to appoint excellent judges who will base their decisions on the law and the Constitution," Judicial Crisis Network Chief Counsel and Policy Director Carrie Severino said of the six judgeship nominees.

2. So he wants to get his guy onto the appeals court that covers NY.

The United States District Courts for the Second Circuit exercise federal jurisdiction in six districts within the states of Connecticut, New York, and Vermont.

Including the Southern District of NY, where most of the actions involving tRump businesses is taking place.

What are the chances that he recuses himself from anything having to do with his former employer?
