Good. Do things like this at every chance. Normalcy is for loosers that this point.
Yeah, it was a single judge, and multiple Dems are gone too, Kamala is apparently in Hawaii, so a tie would have lost.
Every single fucking person with a D by their name needs to be in DC madly scrambling around the clock to do any and everything possible to mitigate imminent damage right now.
Like, I won't lie. A single judge is more than I expected, and I'm happy we got it.
But fuck it, we have the Senate, a single vacancy when Biden hands over the keys is too much.

45 vacancies, 15 pending...
And one got voted today when they have the numbers?
I don't say it enough, but Chuck Schumer is a fucking problem and shouldn't be in a party leadership position. Compare him to the Republican counterpart Mitch McTurtle. That dude spent decades saying courts was the number 1 priority, literally all thru Chuck Schumer's political career.
It's been wildly effective but also done in an unethical manner
And yet when Trump is about to move in with a Senate majority, and we have an ethical manner to fill every vacancy...
Why aren't we?
Yes! Louder 👏🏾 for 👏🏾 the 👏🏾 people 👏🏾 in 👏🏾 the 👏🏾 back 👏🏾
They were too quick to try and fundraise off of the loss but they’re too busy to take action? Fuck these clowns.
"even with Sen. Joe Manchin (I-WV) joining Republicans to vote against his nomination."
That's a really weird way of writing "Republican Joe Manchin joined his fellow Republicans to vote against Democrats as he always does."
Thank you.
That’s the way to weaponize incompetence.
Against Trump's Wishes
Last I checked he's not president yet.
Unfortunately that hasn't mattered for four years, they've still done everything he's asked. (Repubs I mean)
Not the worst way for republicans to make things harder on trump
That's an interesting tactic I hadn't considered; that what few sane republicans remain after January will simply skip the vote in order to try to keep Dime-Store Musollini in check.
