    Denying SCOTUS hearings is unprecedented, according to historian's office. No nominee has been denied hearings unless they've withdrawn

        @mkraju Justices purposefully don't retire in election years. Scalia one of the only justices to die on bench ever.

        @mkraju Liberal media gave Miguel Estrada zero coverage. This is what happens when 85 percent of media are liberals.
