Americans are counting down the days Trump is out of office.
First he pardons his slimy son. Then he pardons his constituents who embezzled millions. Then he commutes the sentences of mass murderers, child murderers and those who killed servicemen. This lying, corrupt, miscreant can’t be gone soon enough.
So the lying, corrupt, miscreant Trumpf can take office?
Who cares? Trump pardoned a bunch of slimy individuals on his way out the first time and now he’s appointing them to cushy positions and Ambassadorships. He’s also saying he’s going to pardon the people who hate America and our Constitutional Republic.
I’m tired of Republicans clutching their pearls in bad faith. Y’all LOVE criminals, stop pretending that you hold some kind of moral high ground.
But back to the issue at hand, Todd Young’s standard babbling not withstanding…
This bill was intended to allow appointment of judges over an extended period of time, in an attempt to de-escalate the partisan rancor that is the trademark of almost all governmental appointments. The House Republicans did not vote to pass the bill earlier this fall, hoping to secure some benefit if Trump won, and more likely than not to scuttle the proposal if Harris won.
Note the comment about Senators not moving to fill currently approved judicial offices. They were holding out, again to gain partisan advantage.
What’s needed here is a complete re-write of how judges and justices are appointed. Maybe involving judicial conferences in the relevant Districts and Circuits to act in advisory capacity, offering two or three names from which to choose.
I don’t have the answer worked out. But the problem is obvious, and a better way is needed.
And as to the comments about Hunter Biden’s pardon, someone leveling such claims might want to review the list of Trump pardons in 2020. Ivanka’s Father In Law, who was in jail for attempting to blackmail folks in a marital dispute. And other equally outstanding citizens. Hunter had a drug problem, and it led to problems with guns and taxes. The gun law has already been declared unconstitutional in a case arising from Texas. And as for the availability of guns to someone with those issues, well, let’s just look to who keeps passing laws to make it easier for almost anyone to go buy a gun…
They will never release the results, but it is likely Hunter has a significant case of CTE. Physical trauma combined with mental trauma on the same day as a yound child? There is highly significant chance he never fully recovered from such a traumatic injury since they did not even know how to test for it back then.
