Summary
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell criticized two Democratic-appointed judges for reversing their retirement plans after President-elect Trump’s victory, accusing them of partisan tactics to block Republican judicial appointments.
McConnell called the moves unprecedented and warned of potential ethics complaints.
He also argued this undermines a recent bipartisan deal on judicial confirmations.
Senate Judiciary Chair Dick Durbin countered, citing McConnell’s 2016 decision to block Merrick Garland’s Supreme Court nomination as an example of GOP gamesmanship.
Here’s hoping they wont die in the next 4 jears. The fact RBG clung on too long is one of the reasons the shit got that bad
