      Here’s what’s going on in the Senate Judiciary Committee right now: traditionally, judicial appointments are only considered once Senators from the state where the nominee will be appointed indicate their approval by turning in what we call a “blue slip.”

      Both Senators from the state where the judge is up for the appointment need to signal their approval for things to move forward. This process has been in place for 100 years.

      No Democratic Judiciary Committee Chairman has ever held a hearing for a nominee over the objections of a Republican home-state Senator.

          Under this Republican Congress, this convention is being violated because the majority wants to confirm judges that they agree with ideologically and as quickly as possible.

          But the whole point of the blue slip process is to protect the ability of the home-state Senators to look out for the interests of their constituents and ensure that the judicial nominees who are up for lifetime appointments in the courts of their states are qualified and vetted.

          We are simply trying to do our due diligence to find and vet nominees. Jamming through extreme and unqualified nominees undermines the very nature of the judicial branch’s role in our government.

          Now Kamala, you already know that your friends across the aisle always cheat, always move the goal posts, always pay for #VoterSuppression, always steal what #Democrats love to win in an honest fight; thus, why do you expect #Republicans to play fair, be fair, pass fair bills? 👽

          That is why people don’t think Democrats will stand up for us. Dems had the chance to wield power for good, but they voluntarily surrendered that power. That is why Dems lose

          You are attacking a qualified candidate for the CIA. She didn’t sleep herself into a position like you did.
