But Democrats began their efforts to derail any nomination even before the passing of Justice Ginsburg. Her death only accelerated their efforts.
First they scurried around, hoping to find enough Republicans to stall the constitutional process. That failed. They now know they don’t have the votes to procedurally block a nomination.
Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) is still going to try. He’s now arguing that concerns about the pandemic should postpone any action. He knows that’s also going to fail.
Other Democrats have suggested different tactics. Some said they’d refuse to meet with the nominee. So much for a fair hearing.
Houser Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) even hinted at a second impeachment of the president. She knew that was pure bluster. Attempting another impeachment would be political suicide for her party, especially when the “high crime” was doing what the Constitution requires.
The simple fact is, the opponents of Judge Barrett can’t make a case against her qualifications because they’re unassailable.
I've sat and thought this weekend about what would be the ultimate birthday or Fathers day present. The lightbulb came on and presto, there it was. Since my birthday is Nov. 3rd, the best thing I could hope for probably won't happen.
ReplyDeleteIt would be Trump winning by a landslide and Schumer and Pelosi dropping dead.
I can dream can't I?
And this is what amazes me about the blatant stupidity and corruptness of the Democratic party and the ignorance of those that support and vote them into office.
ReplyDeleteThe dumbocrats up to their usual games again, straw man arguments that if this judge is confirmed people will die.
ReplyDeleteChildish micro brained morons infest the dumbocrat party.
Nope..any opportunity to grandstand and say things fitting their agenda is all they know. Supremes come up with decisions by law. Congress does policy and makes the laws. We don't vote in the Supremes, we vote in Congress and those representatives are way more important to Americans and we control Congress by voting. We don't vote when it's time, it's our fault. Voting is a way to hold to congress accountable too.
ReplyDeleteVote in November. It's our duty.
Weall if they continue, we are just going to have to turn on those pieces of feces.
ReplyDeleteSeems the Democrats let out another vile of the virus to get the numbers up to try and stop nominating a Supreme Court Justice. It is just amazing how low it went and now all of sudden it is climbing again 24 days before the ELECTION!!!! I still and will always believe the Democrats have their hands into this virus. Amazing how it jumps out wherever Republicans are and never seems to pop up in those cities with thousands of Democrats fighters, looters, rioters, murderers, etc and they do not seem to catch anything either.
ReplyDeleteVoters WILL STOP them Demon-crats 2020 !!!
ReplyDeleteRepublicans had no case against Merrick Garland either but that didn’t stop them from preventing his confirmation.
ReplyDeletePlease tell us how they did that?? The senate has a republican majority. Just like now. As Obama told John mccain. ELECTIONS HAVE CONSQUENCES.
DeleteThis sh#* show by the liberal left further exposes their radical ideology. They have spent this entire term undermining this administration through obstruction, deceit, and blatant disregard for the will of the people.
ReplyDeleteYou know when The Hill comes out with a piece like this, your cause is sunk.

ReplyDeleteYes they did. Obummer (a dumbocrat) nominated him but the Senate (Republican) chose not to give him a hearing.
