Hello from the Senate Judiciary Committee, where we'll be hearing from 7th Circuit nominee Michael Brennan (of Wisconsin). People are wearing blue shirts to protest the fact that Grassley is holding the hearing despite Sen. Tammy Baldwin not returning a blue slippic.twitter.com/1gk3Lmb7D2
Here's the letter that Sen. Grassley sent to Sen. Baldwin about why he planned to hold a hearing on 7th Circuit nominee Michael Brennan despite Baldwin not returning her blue slip https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/4358489/1-17-18-Grassley-Letter-to-Baldwin.pdf …pic.twitter.com/flhINiZQlv
And here is Sen. Baldwin's letter to Sen. Grassley today explaining why she's unhappy about this, saying that the timeline of Brennan's comms with the White House indicate the WH never planned to respect the home state process https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/4358488/1-23-18-Baldwin-Letter-to-Grassley.pdf …pic.twitter.com/WjqFh8dYiR

Sen. Coons notes Brennan signed a letter in 2011 supporting Sen. Ron Johnson's decision not to return a blue slip and to block Obama's nominee for this very same 7th Circuit seat, Victoria Nourse. See:http://archive.jsonline.com/news/opinion/126042043.html/ …
Did Brennan consider withdrawing when Baldwin said she wouldn't return her blue slip, Coons asks. No, Brennan says, explaining the difference is that Johnson was a new senator when Obama renominated Nourse and hadn't had a chance to play a role in the selection process
After Sen. Whitehouse rails about how the judiciary committee is dealing with blue slips, Grassley disputes that the Republican majority had anything to do with anything. "You can only blame one senator for what you don’t like. And that’s Chuck Grassley.”
