WTF???

[FONT=&quot]Sen. Chuck Schumer isn't doing much to help keep the resistance fired up to help Democrats fight the unindicted co-conspirator's illegitimate Supreme Court nominee when he makes deals with Mitch McConnell to push through Trump's judicial nominees in record time. Tuesday, before heading out for a very long Labor Day weekend, the Senate pushed through a slew of nominees, both executive and judicial, many of which were confirmed with simple voice votes.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]This means, to date, Trump has gotten confirmation for 33 district court judges and 26 appeals court judges, not to mention a Supreme Court justice. These are generally hyper conservative and young, meaning that Trump's stamp is going to be on the federal courts for decades to come. These are the judges who are going to be forwarding every extremist legal challenge up the chain to what's going to be Trump's Supreme Court. And this week, Schumer allowed it to be hurried up.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]There's not much Senate Democrats can do to stop these nominees entirely, not while Republicans still hold the Senate. But there's an awful lot they could do, as [/FONT]detailed in this thread[FONT=&quot] by former leader Harry Reid's deputy chief of staff Adam Jentleson, to slow down the works. Just like Republicans did under President Obama.[/FONT]
