“The president wants to move without delay,” jonkarl says on Trump’s SCOTUS shortlist. “At his rally last night you actually saw Trump supporters chanting ‘fill that seat’ … the president seemed almost gleeful to have something else to talk about.”

Senate Republicans have an"obligation, without delay" to act on his nominee for the Supreme Court before November's presidential election.

Later, before departing the White House for a campaign rally in North Carolina, he told reporters that he will decide on a nominee by"next week," calling his shortlist"the greatest list ever assembled." The sources caution the process is still in its early stages and the president is expected to speak to those on the shortlist before making any announcement in the coming days.

"There is a clear choice on the future of the Supreme Court between the well-qualified and conservative jurist President Trump will nominate and I will support, and the liberal activist Joe Biden will nominate and Cal Cunningham will support, who will legislate radical, left wing policies from the bench," Tillis said in a statement.Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, celebrating her 20th anniversary on the bench, is photographed in the West conference room at the U.S.

GStephanopoulos SpeakerPelosi Oozing panic.

GStephanopoulos Your arrows? You going to smear a woman for her Catholic Faith, the Religion you pretend to practice when it gives you political advantage or pay someone millions to create a fake story on their life as a teenager without facts. When the shoe on your foot...SpeakerPelosi

GStephanopoulos Justice Ginsburg does not get to decide which President nominates her replacement, whom the President selects or when the Senate holds a vote. RBG really never understood the separation of powers and that whole Constitution thing. She should stay in her own lane.

GStephanopoulos So, no chance. What a country.

Biden: Senate Shouldn't Take Up Supreme Court Vacancy Until After The ElectionThe Democratic presidential nominee said Friday he thought voters should have a say in the makeup of the high court through their choice for president — the position taken by the GOP in 2016. Strange - Dems decried this action earlier, but now agree with McConnell’s position re Merrick Garland? Well, yeah, no duh- that's the standard that Mitch set during Obama's last year. That was a hefty chunk of a year too, not just 6 weeks or so. GOP did demanded it in February 2016. It says alot about them if they dont do it now.

Supreme Court vacancy scrambles 2020 Senate mapAfter Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said late Friday he would hold a floor vote on President Trump’s nominee to fill Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s seat, attention quickly turned to the most endangered Republicans on the Senate map Damn right. These endangered Republicans better vote to move Trump's nominee to confirmation or they are going to get thrown out of office. I'm thinking that the interpretation of the so-called BidenRule ought to be left to JoeBiden to whom it is attributed.
