Midknight Review -- new and revised: Trump has appointed 21 judges to the Appellate Court System. That process is about to get back on track.

Trump has appointed 21 judges to the Appellate Court System. That process is about to get back on track.

Arizona Senator Jeff Flake on Wednesday dropped his plan to obstruct President Trump’s judicial nominees after a symbolic Senate vote on tariffs.
In a narrowly divided Senate, Flake’s automatic no vote on appeals court nominees as a way to demand a vote on Trump’s tariff policies effectively stalled confirmations. While the Arizona senator picked circuit court nominees to use as leverage, he told the Arizona Republic he would not use . . . . .
that as a basis to hold up President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee.
“That [was] always the deal. Get a vote [on tariffs] and it’s dropped,” Flake told The Hill.
The nonbinding bill, passed 88-11, provides for the inclusion of language “providing a role for Congress” on tariffs put in place for national security reasons, according to The Hill.

Let's return the favor, shall we?

CLINTON: You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for, what you care about. That’s why I believe if we are fortunate enough to win back the House and/or the senate, that’s when civility can start again. But until then, the only thing that the Republicans seem to recognize and respect is strength. And you heard how the Republican members led by Mitch McConnell, the president really demeaned the confirmation process.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
