      And on related note here's @seungminkim on the many vacancies Trump has to fill on his bête noire, the 9th Circuit:https://twitter.com/seungminkim/status/993479514834513920 …

      Of the 15 appellate judges Trump got confirmed and the six more who will get votes this week, none are from 9th Circuit, Trump's judicial nemesis. Of eight vacancies in the 9th, Trump has picked just two nominees https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trump-is-transforming-the-judiciary-but-he-has-yet-to-take-aim-at-the-court-that-annoys-him-most/2018/05/06/53886d30-4f9d-11e8-b966-bfb0da2dad62_story.html?utm_term=.b1ccd544350d …

          While both Oregon's Democratic senators oppose Trump's nominee earmarked for their state, Hawaii's two Democratic senators are both on board with the nominee set to fill a seat there. Level of White House-Democratic cooperation varies from one vacancy to the next.
