Narrator: as Trump’s presidency goes into a tailspin, Mitch McConnell continues to confirm federal judges. Their lifetime appointments will long outlast this presidency & control the tenor of American life for a generation. Menashi is only 40.

even with foreign help in stealing elections, the Dems may have a strong shot in taking the senate while keeping the equal important House of Representatives.

The Christian right got what they wanted - control of the courts, for at least a generation. There's no telling what kind of damage they can do with that kind of power. Fuckers.
