The Roberts Court has repeatedly put corporations over people, including the dangerous Epic Systems decision, which undermined workers' well-being.

We need fair-minded judges who will uphold the value of equality. This current list represents a clear danger to women's health and should be rejected in favor of a bipartisan nominee should there be a vacancy on the bench.

Never mind the huge number of unqualified judges he’s filling the district and circuit court with. Dems need to remember this and not play nice if we get a majority. We always fall into that trap and McConnell turns around and stabs us in the back - every single time.

I agree. We need to play on Mitch’s level until they come to us to compromise when they’re in power. The only thing is it looks like we’re more likely to take the House than the Senate, which is good in its own way - just not for judges. Wouldn’t it be something if we took both?
-
Why can't we take both??

Tough playing field on the Senate side this year. A lot more Dems are up for election in deep red states than there are GOPers struggling to win. Everything has to go perfectly for Dems to have any chance at the Senate.

If a vacancy occurs in trumps term Dems should block any nomination while he is being investigated for collusion with Russia. End of story.

Exactly. "They should block them!" What nonsense. If they could block nominations, they would have been doing it all along (with Gorsuch, for example). THEY. CAN'T!!!!
-
With a majority they can. How do you think republicans blocked Garland.
-
But that's not what you said. "If a vacancy occurs in trumps term Dems should block any nomination while he is being investigated for collusion with Russia. " Unless they take the Senate this fall, there'll be 2 more years in which the Dems can't stop ANY nomination.

So how about we work like hell to retake the Senate in November? It can be done. The House too. In fact, I believe it’s our last best hope.

Exactly

We work to elect more Democrats in November. Until then: Call your 2 senators and make sure they know that you agree with Senator Gillibrand. No more SCOTUS seats for Trump. Even better, no more judges or anyone approved.

Don’t worry so much about SCOTUS, he’s gonna declare martial law anyways. You will no longer be a Senator, as will no one else - whose gonna stop him? Paul and Mitch? I think not.

The solution is still elections.

If they’re allowed.

Yes there have been voter purges so we need to register. We have to fight gerrymandering with numbers. We have to overcome propaganda with enthusiasm.
