Summary
Senate Democrats are rushing to confirm President Biden’s judicial nominees before Republicans take control in January.
Republicans are frustrated, accusing Democrats of pushing through liberal judges. However, critics point out GOP hypocrisy, as they did the same in 2020 to confirm Trump’s judges.
Democrats have confirmed 217 judges so far and aim to confirm 26 more, potentially surpassing Trump’s first-term total and cementing Biden’s judicial impact.
Schumer has vowed to keep the Senate in session as long as needed to finish the confirmations.
“Republicans are mad that Democrats are doing their job”
FTFY
Republicans, who are not showing up to do their job, are mad that Democrats are doing their job.
Love to see it.
“That’s not fair! You can’t do exactly what we did! You said it wasn’t fair, remember? And now you are doing it! Wwwaaaahhhhh! Stop it! I’ll tell daddy putin, and he’ll be very mad”
“It’s not fair that you can do what you’re permitted to do! You should do what we want you to do! Remember when you didn’t get to confirm SCOTUS judges? That was more fair because it helped us!”
“Copycats!!!1!!” - the party of petulant children
Yeah? Fuck em
Democrats should have been trying to piss Republicans off for the last 20 years.
The existence of anyone slightly to the left of Rush Limbaugh makes them apoplectic, if we are to be honest.
No, Republicans are mad because not enough of their own party can be bothered to show up to block or debate the picks on the floor.
They’re so overconfident in their win they’ve stopped showing up to do the job.
Would he nice if that attitude persists for a while.
The next four years would be nice, but I’ll settle for two
LOL, the qons don’t have a fucking leg to stand on. Moscow Mitch unilaterally changed the number of judges on SCOTUS for nearly a year as a gigantic fuck you to Obama and the Democrats and the majority of the country, so they can just FUCK RIGHT OFF with their bullshit.
Fucking right. You need to change that account image though buddy. Sadly.
well said. their chicanery with the judiciary goes back decades. As usual they are fine with their actions but when dems emulate the way they act to the smallest degree and they get mad.
We don’t negotiate with terrorists.
We don’t but the DNC sadly does more often than not
Scratch a liberal…
Too damn bad then, hopefully this will help
None of this means anything. This country doesn’t mean anything. Nothing stands for anything. It’s all just a back and forth. Good will not prevail. It’s just cocksuckers getting gheir way, and making others suck their cock on the way down. That’s all this is. Human suffering doesn’t matter. Peoples lives don’t matter. It’s all just a dick measuring contest to these people. A little over a million people died during covid. Trump didn’t care. Then Biden took over and provided vaccines. But nobody cared. They were just told by their government for 8 months it was all a hoax. And then Biden has to deal with gaza, he doesn’t care. He could have sent Ukraine permission to use weapons deep in russia for 2 years. He didn’t care. These judges won’t care. Being human doesn’t matter. Nobody has any rights. Consume commercial goods. Amazon has you by the balls.

This is the message I keep trying to give myself and others. Our goals and priorities haven’t changed since losing an election. The fight may be tougher than if people more aligned with us may have won, but it was still going to be a fight either way. We aren’t starting from nothing, we’re still at the same point we were the day before the election. It’s our job to hold our ground that we’ve won until now, and to push forward into new territory where possible in the future.
I still need to protect the people and causes I care about. That is the motivation for change I have, and no matter who is in charge and how much they dislike it will change that. It’s up to me to give up or not.
now that you’ve gotten that out of your system, what are you going to do about it? Silence is not an option.
Some of you have never watched A Bug’s Life, and it shows.
After the SCOTUS bs under Obama then trump…cry and die mad about it HAHAHA
It would have been uncivil - and as we all know, the most effective way to fight fascism is by letting them run roughshod over you while smugly pointing out how correct you are, and that they’re breaking the rules while adjusting your policies to be a watered down version of the fascists, exciting the fascists, liberals, and leftists at the end time.
If the Dems get another election and don’t pick a left populist like Sanders, they’re finished.
