Even this Canadian, unschooled in the minutiae of Congressional hardball, can see a couple of obvious options.<br /><br />First, impeach Barr, Kavanaugh, Trump or all three. Barr for corrupting the Justice Department, Barr and Kavanaugh for lying under oath, and Trump, well, take your pick of corrupt acts. Impeachment proceedings take precedence over judicial confirmations, so start tomorrow, before McConnell rams through another Federalist, this time without hearings and on a straight party vote.<br /><br />Second, tie the confirmation up in the courts by arguing that McConnell set a new binding precedent by refusing to hold confirmation hearings for Gorsuch in Obama's final year. That's now the new rule and Republicans have to abide by it.<br /><br />Either of these actions, or both, shoukd delay the confirmation proceedings well past November and into next year. I'm sure there are other options that are obvious to the likes of Pelosi and Schumer should they ever give up on bringing knives to a gunfight.<br /><br />CapAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-83792484940061056752020-09-19T13:29:56.462-07:002020-09-19T13:29:56.462-07:00Now comes the apocalypse, and it ain't on a ho...Now comes the apocalypse, and it ain't on a horse! A new Justice before the election despite the Senate Dems pulling all the stops, and then Trump gets all of his motions to disallow late votes, alleged missing votes and all those handed in after election day passed by SCOTUS. Ergo another four years for trump.<br /><br />Hw doesn't even need a rigged USPS now.Ben Burdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06372169478978720740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-84931547176853096232020-09-19T12:09:00.221-07:002020-09-19T12:09:00.221-07:00McConnell's hypocrisy knows no bounds, Mound -...McConnell's hypocrisy knows no bounds, Mound -- and it knows no shame.Owen Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06464860078574618579noreply@blogger.com
