Feinstein issues warning on Trump judicial nominees

[Cavalier Knight]

California Sen. Dianne Feinstein, just named the ranking Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee, warned Wednesday that the group “will pay very close attention to proposed nominees” from President-elect Donald Trump.

In a statement on her election to the post, Feinstein described Merrick Garland, President Barack Obama’s nominee to fill the Supreme Court seat left vacant by the death of Antonin Scalia as “a moderate judge who should have been quickly confirmed.”

“After the unprecedented and disrespectful treatment” of Garland, she said, “the committee will pay very close attention to proposed nominees to ensure the fundamental constitutional rights of Americans are protected.”

Boy that sounds encouraging (on the surface) from a leading dumbocrat.

And...the filibuster goes away in three--two--one....

FuEinstein has the same credibility as a coin with two heads. She along with old harry are some the main reasons
the democratic party is where it is today. Filibuster my middle finger.

She's one of the front runners as the best reason for term limits.

hahaha, too bad. We've learned now you play to win. They'll show us no quarter, so they get none.

I hope trump nominates a 25 year old who rides into court on a stallion with a cowboy hat and a bandolier. The dems had to try garland because they had no power. If they ran the senate they would have put in a pure dyed in the wool progressive.

So, they can watch all they like. They have no say. They have nothing now and their opinion on this means nothing.

Why don't you go have a stroke you old bat?

 

[meketrefe]

@Blimey ...like Sir Churchill over there would say ... if you are old and you are not Conservative, you have no brains. lol

 

[Gunright]

I really think that Trump needs to be bold and aggressive with these f**ks. Who knows what happens in two or four years, now is the time.

 

[Podmonkey]

I think she has a brain so full of aneurysms that the pressure they put against one another is the only thing keeping her head from exploding! Maybe one good "BOO!" is all it will take.

Fuck-off Feinstein, you socialist prick!!
As "your POS President" so eloquently put it: “Elections have consequences, and at the end of the day, I won.”

Eat those fucking words!!

So what's it matter if they watch them or not. We don't need them right? We have the majority so they all say no and we say yes we get who we want. So bye bye.

God, I hope the republicans don't screw up this opportunity.

[turbobike]

You know the RINO's are pissed that Trump won, they'll be in collusion with the Democraps to undermine Trump's SCOTUS choice...sadly

 

[Celt]

That hag isnt dead yet, damn.

 

[ArmedCorgi]

He is going to have an uphill battle his whole term.

 

[Podmonkey]

God, I hope the republicans don't screw up this opportunity.

Regarding Feinstein a good opportunity is her standing at the top of a long flight of stairs with her back to you and no one looking

Sometimes it seems the republican leadership can fuck up... a fuck up.

Diane, you have to approve the nominee to see who it is sorta like how they voted for Obamacare to find out what was in it.

 

[Phazer]

And...the filibuster goes away in three--two--one....

McConnell already said he wouldn't do that. He's a RINO moron.

Well, Dems - Republicans are back in the driver's seat. Buckle up!

 

[Cooolone]

Can watch all you want, with mild amusement or detailed focus, it won't mean a thing, so who cares...

Is amazing how the irrelevant attempt to make themselves so. Piss off!

Unfortunately, Senate rules need 60 votes to stop a filibuster. The GOP leader (ugh) says he won't change the rules.
