They're pulling out all the stops.

Quote:Sen. Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.) on Wednesday announced that he's seeking an injunction in federal court designed to stop a final vote on Brett Kavanaugh, asserting an obstruction of his constitutional duty to advise and consent on nominees.

Merkley's filing in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia comes as Senate Republicans vow to push ahead with a vote on President Donald Trump's Supreme Court nominee in the coming days — and hours before a landmark hearing slated with Christine Blasey Ford, who has alleged a decades-old sexual assault by Kavanaugh.

at the bolded part. Like he would ever in a million years vote for Kavanaugh.

Pot shot as they are retreating in defeat. It's over. They know they've lost.

bahahahahahahaha

The idea that a US Senator would ask a federal court to issue an order/injunction/whatever prohibiting the US Senate from casting votes on a judicial nomination.... We really have gone through the looking-glass. Simply insane.

Rule 12(b)(6) time.

Bye Bye

But after seeing some of the garbage that came out of the District Courts in the 9th Circuit on the Immigration Visa Ban you never know.

I'm not a lawyer...thank goodness, but can he do that and will it stick?

What a joke. They will laugh that guy out of the courtroom with that BS.

Really. The Democratic Party is jumping off a cliff.

They lose 8-0 in the Supreme Court even if they have shopped around to find a nutty district judge.

Its really instructive of what the real issue is---Democrats have lost their strangle hold on power. They lost the Senate. They lost House. They lost the presidency. None of rhat really mattered--becasue as the OP shows---they always had the court. Now--they realize they are losing the Court---and that grim reality has them completely freaking out.

#welcometoRXbendover

Saw this on Twitter and it pretty much sums up the pure hypocrisy and lunacy of the left (paraphrasing but close)......

If a woman in college sees a pee-niss at a house party.... It's sexual assault.....

If a little girl sees a pee-niss in a store bathroom...... It's tolerance.....

democrats will democrat...

This x 1 million. Their policies and platform are awful so they continue to lose elections. The courts were the end around they've used to ignore the will of the people and implement the socialist garbage. Those days are coming to an end.

The problem is that they continue to *win* elections. They have held the Oval Office and the various houses of Congress for equivalent times as the 'pubs in my lifetime.

All it takes is the right radleft judge.

Which is what this really is all about -- the Dems want to own the judicial branch and they see it slipping away.
