So because the GOP broke the systems and democrats did what they had to get it functional again, it will be the DEMs fault when they do it agian?

Dems broke it first and are now paying the price... reread my post lol

But ACB could not hear those cases if they waited... they had to rush her through in order for that to happen.

And something about that is illegal ?

If so, why wasn't this entire process challenged in court ?

Look up the actual wording of new Justices entering active cases. 😎

I just saw the end of Amy Coney-Barrett's speech after being sworn in. Was that REALLY President Trump standing there?

He held 3 rallies in Pennsylvania today. Holy smokes.

And 3 tomorrow 😎

So to you Democrats, if you don't get your way, you advocate changing the rules to get your way. Then whine and complain when someone else uses that new rule change of yours. So, you propose to change another rule to correct the use of the first rule change you advocated.

Yeah, that makes perfect sense, in Bizarro World (or a spoiled child's backyard game).


Bravo Democrats. Here is your participation trophy so you don't get all teary eyed.

I... but... that was not what we were talking about...

Mitch McConnell left so many judicial appointments open it literally was breaking parts of the Federal Government INCLUDING the Supreme Court...

Honestly, I'd be surprised to see Biden do 3 events in a year.

I cant think of a law but he did take the Senate oath of Office. Pretty sure breaking the government to get your way goes against "faithfully discharging the duties of the office" but oaths mean nothing to most.

Not sure other than you are pissing in the wind...

The 114th’s record pales when compared to the final two years of the Reagan, Clinton, and Bush administrations. Then, as in 2015-16, the other party controlled the Senate. The 114th Senate both confirmed far fewer judges than its recent other-party predecessors and stopped confirming them at a much earlier point. Some of the 2016 vacancies Trump inherited occurred after any confirmation clock would have stopped. Still, of the 21 circuit vacancies he’s filled as of late May and others he soon will, up to seven could have had Obama appointees under pre-2015 norms. So too, up to 71 of the district vacancies he inherited and has only begun to fill could have had Obama appointees.

So not close to what happen to Reagan, Bush or Clinton in vacancies...Breaking the Goverment? Seems very norm to me other than Obama appointed a massive number even with the 71 left open that Trump has filled.

Tell me Pyle, If the Dems were in control of the white house and senate, and the R's had the house, would the dems run their choice through, or would they not, because it would be nicer to wait?

You don't have to answer, but perhaps that will help you sleep.

Does anybody know if appointing judges and justices for partisan reasons is unconstitutional ? 🦊

Joe Biden now says he's for "rotating" Justices.

Sounds like he wants to make the Supreme Court dizzy.
