        It didn't stop them confirming unqualified nominees before Alabama. Carson, Tillerson, De Vos. They just thought they could get away with it before.

        Incompetence should never be rewarded with a lifetime appointment in a position of power.

        Good, keep up the pressure. These conservative activists judges would deny a generation of our LGBTQ citizens and women and POC of equal treatment under the law. These are lifetime appointments, more damaging then legislation

        Now that gop sees they can't steamroll the rest of America, they suddenly grew the backbone to do the right thing. I guess grassley's smug smirk isn't so smug anymore.

        Glad to see that GOP has just noticed that voters are not keen with a party of mostly old white men who encourage rabid LGBT haters.
