McConnell Brags He and Trump Are 'Changing the Federal Courts Forever' With Extreme Right-Wing Judges
"It's not for ordinary Americans, it's for the rich and powerful, and we have to find a way to stop them. And that's going to be the elections next year," said Sen. Jeff Merkley.
{"Every network should be covering this," the Leadership Conference said in September after McConnell rammed through four more lifetime judges. "Trump's dangerous takeover of our courts will last a generation. All who care about our civil rights being protected must speak out and demand better."}
As I have said before. These are seats left unfilled by the Obama administration. Every network? No, every democrat representative should have been on top of this from year one when democrats had control of all 3 houses if they actually felt the way Sen. Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.) does. But they silently, willingly, allowed this to happen along with the networks. This move was primed for the next republican power house to put a strangle hold over the court system. This factor staunchly strengthens the narrative of this group of both parties being in collaboration with each other against us.
This is mostly Mitch McConnell’s doing. Ted Kennedy died early on in the Obama presidency and the Senate became controlled by the Republicans. Throughout that time McConnell opposed every judge that Obama put up for consideration.
The first 2 years of the Obama administration he held the benefit of a 3 house democratic control. A lot can be done in those 2 years. Trump and McConnell have filled roughly 3/4 of those 260 some seats in a short time. Have you heard of any hearings on the appointments? Why not!
It looks like a stranglehold to me. How would anyone fight a lifetime appointment? You would think powers that be could have seen this coming along in the future and should have done something to prevent it. We have a rigged system in which we are the puppets.
