TRUMP MOVES TO FILL JUDGE BARRETT’S COURT OF APPEALS SEAT

The Judiciary Committee vote was unanimous. Democrats boycotted the session.

Committee rules require that two members of the minority party to be present for business to be conducted. However, chairman Lindsey Graham proceeded with the vote anyway. “We’re not going to allow [Democrats] to take over the committee,” he stated.

Meanwhile, President Trump has nominated a replacement for Judge Barrett on the Seventh Circuit Court Appeals. The nominee is Thomas Kirsch, age 46, currently the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Indiana.
