I laugh every time I see someone act like he was owed a seat on the court.

 

"Your seat, sir..."

Day 2 started, btw. I dunno if I understood Graham correctly but it sounded like he said the question period ends tomorrow (end of Day 3).

The Dems are playing the sky is falling game with most of their political identity categories.

That is my understanding as well.  Supposedly the committee will vote Thursday and he is allowing a week delay before a vote of the full Senate which should take place 10/22.

I saw Feinstein try and get her to commit at least 4 times on Roe. 😂

 

It really tells you of the insecurity of views if these people are trying to get her to pre-commit to outcomes of cases that may come before the court. 

 

Even funnier was Feinstein saying her vote depends on her answers.. seriously.. she was never going to vote for Barrett and she made it clear she wouldn't vote for any Trump nominee regardless of when it was made. Barrett isn't an idiot and knows it's a charade.

How old is Feinstein now?

Beyond the age of retirement, like many of them.

There really need to be an age cap, 70?

I think if there's a minimum age, there should be a maximum.
