    It is as unjust as it is unprecedented… and the Republicans are set to do it again next week on Oct 24th. As Republicans continue to pack our courts, this is what a tyranny of the majority looks like. They must postpone these hearings until the Senate is back in session.https://twitter.com/SenMarkey/status/1053327006476181504 …

        Grassley to DF: “You argue that it’s unprecedented to do so without the minority’s consent. But you neglect to mention that you consented to hearings scheduled for October 10, 17, and 24. You made this agreement after I accommodated your numerous requests for postponements and..

        with full knowledge that it was possible the Senate would go into recess in October,” Grassley said. So maybe you just got tripped up by your own game, and should knock it off.

        Actually, it's tyranny of the minority. Republican Senators represent a minority of the population. Democrats in the legislature received millions more votes than their Republican counterparts. We are experiencing long term minority rule and the GOP will do anything to keep it.

        The John "Crow" Roberts judiciary takes shape. John Crow is the new Jim Crow. His legacy: racist voter suppression & dark money.
