    Farr will not be a federal judge. This is a massive victory for those who have organized for a year against this nomination. It shows what progressives can do when we decide to wage a fight on the courts http://amp.thestate.com/news/politics-government/article222386255.html …

        Won't Trump just re-nominate Farr in the new Congress, when the GOP has a bigger Senate majority? Or is that not allowed?

        yeah, now the guy has to wait two more months to become a federal judge.

        I didn’t realize this grand dragon of the GOP was nominated to the bench twice by Bush and now twice by Chump - clearly they are desperate to get him on the bench for some reason. Hmm, what could that reason be...

        A big victory, and an object lesson to GOP senators that they can occasionally oppose their leadership without catastrophic consequences.

        Until next year. Then we will need to find four republicans of conscience in the Senate?

        This means McConnell is willing to lose judicial nominations rather than protect Mueller. All he has to do is call a vote on the bill to protect Mueller & he gets Flakes vote for nominees. This seems significant. Particularly since he has chosen the judiciary as his legacy.
