Chuck Schumer says Biden-appointed judges will be bulwark against Trump
Outgoing Senate leader also says 235 judges appointed by Biden will preserve departing president’s legacy
Summary
Outgoing Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer highlighted Biden-appointed judges’ crucial role in safeguarding Biden’s legacy and opposing Trump’s agenda after the Republican “trifecta” victory.
Schumer highlighted Biden’s appointment of 235 federal judges, surpassing Trump’s first-term total, as part of a strategy to counterbalance the conservative judiciary built during Trump’s presidency.
He warned that Trump’s allies would use the courts to challenge Biden’s legislative achievements and advance a “MAGA” agenda targeting women’s rights, the environment, unions, and consumers.
The judiciary, Schumer stated, remains Democrats’ strongest defense.
Too bad Biden wasn't a bulwark against trump.
he's actively helping them now as exemplified by the escalations in isreal and ukraine along with the anti-transgender bill.
There's not much Biden can do that can't be undone in the next administration. Especially since he wasn't running for re-election. Should he have stepped aside sooner? Sure. But ultimately, if people didn't want Trump, they should have voted for Harris. That was the true bulwark against him and the MAGA agenda...
EDIT: Downvote all you want, but unpopularity for Harris doesn't change the fact that it was a binary choice: Trump/Not Trump. (Not voting was also a vote for Trump) Our feelings about the Democratic Candidate don't affect the reality...
It took, what? Six months to get highly classified materials back?
And that’s one hell of slam dunk trial. “We found these documents. In his bathroom. They’re TS/SCI. He had no need for them.”
But nope. Apparently prosecution is political even if the dude is guilty as fuck. (Protip: not prosecuting when you normally would is also “political”)
Chuck Schumer should shut the fuck up because he’s part of the leadership that got us here in the first place
Too bad nary a one was on the high court which can nullify any lower court’s decision they don’t like.
Bullshit. That’s why these clowns are always judge shopping to get around the politicized judiciary that would stop their plans.
They have a judicial highway to a captured SCOTUS. Not a single other judge in the country matters in regards to rulings about government power. The Democrats had years to fix it and instead they gave the corporations more welfare.
The best we'll see is some delay until the appeal gets to the Supremes and Alito channels the voices of dead Founders to deliver a conclusion exactly the same as what the Heritage Foundation wants.
I can't even find it in myself to make a sarcastic joke about Alito channeling the founding fathers for the heritage foundation. It's just... Ugh.
This is why even your base doesn't respect you, Dem leaders. Not that they actually give a shit.
Dems have been so effective, I see no possible way this could fail
I don't trust a damn thing Chummy Chuck has to say about anything.
They'll just get overruled by the corrupt Supreme Court.
They'll be about as useful as Schumer.
If you intend to resist Trump's misrule, don't put your hopes in the Democratic Party. They're not there to deliver change, they're there to prevent progressives from holding power.
