Another batch of Trump's judicial nominees refused in their confirmation hearings today to publicly acknowledge that Joe Biden won the 2020 election, which annoyed Sen. Richard Blumenthal enough for him to call them "monkeys" and "puppets"

By refusing to acknowledge the results of the 2020 election, they are directly impugning the honesty and diligence of the federal judiciary, to which they aspire.

I can't believe how much restraint he showed! I think I would used different terms!

Democrats who vote to confirm these smug gits run the risk of appearing before them in court, how do they fancy their chances of getting the judge to state facts in accordance with the evidence if they cannot answer the senators question.

such an answer should be disqualifying - why isn't it? a nominee who refuses to acknowledge such an clear and obvious truth should *never* be a judge

Watching four shameless traitors debase themselves in the name of America’s destruction really hammers home just how few consequences they expect to face from this tyranny. The arrogance is startling

Not sure what our options are for impeaching these asshats once they are confirmed, but we need to make sure we do it, because they aren't qualified to judge a goddamn cowpie competition.

However, they have to be convicted for"Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors". Without a democratic Senate and House (with healthy majorities), that doesn't happen, and, importantly, they have to have committed one of these acts.

So then, too, are the @democrats.senate.gov who confirmed these Trump judges to the federal judiciary for life.

Isn't this LYING UNDER OATH TO THE Senate by these judicial nominees and then the question should become WHY they should be nominated if they are not willing to tell the truth; it's not business as usual. Because this is not usual business to have liars lying deliberately to ... 1

Senators faces and it should not be allowed. Maybe Dems should get up and walk out on these nominees, hold up their confirmations until they tell the truth? Senate cannot confirm without all the Senate being in session, because if they could, ... 2

Dems should be able to pass things by themselves when Communist-Fascist Redpublicons go on vacation to avoid doing the work they were hired to do. This isn't advise and consent. This is lie and deceive. These nominees do not belong on the bench as judges so stop confirming them. ... 3

ADVISE THAT THEY DO NOT BELONG IN OUR COURTS AND NOR WILL THEY UPHOLD OUR LAWS IF THEY ARE WILLING TO LIE DURING CONFIRMATION and isn't lying a disqualification from confirmation? ... 4

The first guy looks like they told him to try to grow a mustache to disguise that they’re giving a lifetime judgeship to someone who might not even be old enough to rent a car.

What is crazy is that they all knew the question was coming and had this bullshit answer that makes no sense except to placate Trump and making them look foolish.

And on top of that, they're all about 23 years old or something -- these apparatchiks will be on the bench for many decades. Thanks GOP for your patriotism and integrity /s/.
