      Chris Geidner Retweeted Zoe Tillman

      This is pretty much sounds like he's saying that it will matter until it matters, and then it won't.https://twitter.com/ZoeTillman/status/931268834455146498 …

      Chris Geidner added,

      Zoe TillmanVerified account @ZoeTillman
      Grassley says he'll continue to recognize the blue slip "courtesy," but that it can't be used as a veto. Says he'll be less inclined to override an unreturned blue slip for district court nominees, though.

          So, David Stras and Kyle Duncan are moving forward. Duncan is moving forward despite being a nominee from a two-Republican state, Louisiana, and Sen. Kennedy had not returned a positive blue slip.

          [By moving forward, I mean to a committee hearing, to be clear.]
