Summary
Senate Democrats are rushing to confirm President Biden’s judicial nominees before Republicans take control in January.
Republicans are frustrated, accusing Democrats of pushing through liberal judges. However, critics point out GOP hypocrisy, as they did the same in 2020 to confirm Trump’s judges.
Democrats have confirmed 217 judges so far and aim to confirm 26 more, potentially surpassing Trump’s first-term total and cementing Biden’s judicial impact.
Schumer has vowed to keep the Senate in session as long as needed to finish the confirmations.
Democrats should have been trying to piss Republicans off for the last 20 years.
“Republicans are mad that Democrats are doing their job”
FTFY
Yeah? Fuck em
“That’s not fair! You can’t do exactly what we did! You said it wasn’t fair, remember? And now you are doing it! Wwwaaaahhhhh! Stop it! I’ll tell daddy putin, and he’ll be very mad”
“It’s not fair that you can do what you’re permitted to do! You should do what we want you to do! Remember when you didn’t get to confirm SCOTUS judges? That was more fair because it helped us!”
“Copycats!!!1!!” - the party of petulant children
Could any of this been done 4 years ago?
Apparently this is one of the things the Biden admin was doing consistently over all its four years.
This last flurry is only so that he confirms more than Trump did.
Too damn bad then, hopefully this will help
None of this means anything. This country doesn’t mean anything. Nothing stands for anything. It’s all just a back and forth. Good will not prevail. It’s just cocksuckers getting gheir way, and making others suck their cock on the way down. That’s all this is. Human suffering doesn’t matter. Peoples lives don’t matter. It’s all just a dick measuring contest to these people. A little over a million people died during covid. Trump didn’t care. Then Biden took over and provided vaccines. But nobody cared. They were just told by their government for 8 months it was all a hoax. And then Biden has to deal with gaza, he doesn’t care. He could have sent Ukraine permission to use weapons deep in russia for 2 years. He didn’t care. These judges won’t care. Being human doesn’t matter. Nobody has any rights. Consume commercial goods. Amazon has you by the balls.
goes to sit in a dark corner
You realize apathy, despair, and doomerism is exactly how they want you to feel, right? They want us to feel scared and hopeless, so we don’t organize. So we don’t fight back.
People have been organizing and pushing change without depending on elected officials for generations. The Civil rights movement. The labor movement during the great depression. etc.
Don’t let fear paralyze you, comrade. Be scared, yes. But let that arose compassion for yourself and your comrades. And we’ll get through this without depending on the Ds or Rs to throw us a bone, just like we always have.
By demanding they listen.
now that you’ve gotten that out of your system, what are you going to do about it? Silence is not an option.
