While you were focused on … Republicans kept moving judicial nominees through pipeline
2018-02-20
This, the tax bill, Hillary Clinton will never be president, the embassy in Jerusalem, ever more bureaucrats taking themselves off the government payroll, turning the military loose to start winning, President Trump returning his salary again, rolling revelations about the Russia dossier that have begun to embroil even former president Obama... what have I forgotten, dear Reader?

#8  We also have to hope that a critical mass of those judges don't "grow in office" or become subject to Deep State pressures.

I'd like to see more actual dismantling of the Left's infrastructure.

#7  A little pessimism, from the article -

As Jared Samilow noted in two posts, there is no guarantee Trump can accomplish the goal of reshaping the judiciary in his first term:

(Part 1 – Appellate Courts)
(Part 2 – District Courts)

So speed it up, please. McConnell needs to ensure we start getting more floor votes.

#4  Just because the guy dots his I's and crosses his t's does not mean he is slow. From my vision, he is thorough.

It has been but one year, and mush of his time has been spent challenging democrat treachery as an additional duty to his job.

One may say democrat treachery is his primary job. Not so. These Institutions matter more than a passing investigation by a long shot.

I see what they are doing down there and I like it.

#3  OK, this unexpected optimism (yesterday Besoeker, today newc) is beginning to scare me.

#2  Since you keep asking what Sessions has been up to,
His first priority was the corrupt Judiciary. The Muller thing and the rest were added to his docket. I say he is moving quite fast and giving me some unexpected gains.

Not losing ground is a new feeling for me as the last 8 years were of turmolt.

#1  I'd prefer the forcible removal of government bureaucrats from the government payroll - kind of a self-fulfilling prophecy, build on the momentum kind of thing. Trump should've shitcanned every political appointee in sight whether or not they managed to 'burrow' their way into the Federal hackerama and let them sue their way out.
