From the ACTION page:


The Fact Sheets under the Blog tab list the ugly details about the unfit, biased judges corruptly rammed through the judicial confirmation process by Trump and Moscow Mitch as they pack the courts.

The Fact Sheets are one page, quick to read and easy to share. The post on each judge also includes extensive background information if you want to know more.

It's not enough to say these judges are bad. To persuade, we must share the specific facts of their own records.

Trump and McConnell are counting on the resumes of their hand-picked extremist judges going generally unnoticed. The opposite needs to happen - we need to shine a light on them. Download Fact Sheets and post them, share them, tweet them, mail them or hand them out. Force accountability on every GOP senator who voted to confirm these judges. The American people deserve answers from these senators about their votes.

Who needs to see this information? Friends. Neighbors. Colleagues. Lawyers. Law students. Law student organizations. Job placement officers at law schools. Women's professional organizations. Diversity officers at any corporation or State Bar...



From the ABOUT page:


RATFUCKING THE COURTS

Trump and the Senate GOP are using the judicial confirmation process as a political tool — filling lifetime appointments with unfit and unqualified radical conservatives whose records prove they will not protect our rights.

An excellent explainer can be found here: What Trump Has Done to the Courts, Explained. See also this report from the Alliance for Justice.

Americans deserve fair, impartial, independent and non-partisan judges and justices who will safeguard the rights of all —not unqualified, smug political hacks, closed-mined ideologues, self-righteous zealots, liars, predatory corporatists, abusive bullies, hate group leaders, racists, bigots and misogynists. Which the Trump judges are.

As of January 2020, 85% of Trump's judicial nominees confirmed by the GOP Senate are white and 75% are male. Some Trump judges have never even tried a case. Most are members of the ultra-conservative Federalist Society or have been selected and groomed by the Federalist Society to pervert our justice system and enact a fascist agenda that fundamentally undermines democracy and human dignity, especially for vulnerable Americans. They are using the courts to execute a wildly unpopular, minority agenda that they could not accomplish at the ballot box.

Republicans blatantly abused or ignored the rules of the Senate to hold vacancies open for years, contemptuously blocked President Obama's nominees, and rammed through (with less than two hours of debate allowed per nominee) an unprecedented number of Trump judges with the express, stated purpose of packing the courts. They don't deny it. They laugh and brag about it. Ratfucking the courts.

Amy McGrath is running against Moscow Mitch. Can you send her a few bucks now?

Would be great if she reports a massive haul in the face of Mitch's corrupt impeachment rules.

Is Martha McSally creating a hostile workplace at the US Capitol?

did she single out a person of color, with a "foreign sounding" name, for aggressive verbal abuse and mistreatment? because she knew he would be a vulnerable target with trump's base?

remember: Stormy Daniels said a thug threatened her about trump in a dark parking lot

she was probably also being surveilled and followed up to that point at least

This is trump's MO. Surveil and find your opportunity to either threaten or hurt someone. This is what he does.

Who was talking about trump getting a taste for blood?

Some people crossing trump's path are not doing so great.


Khashoggi.

Epstein.

Soleimani.

now Yovanovitch put in danger...
