Summary

Senate Democrats are working to confirm up to 30 of President Biden’s federal judicial nominees before the new Republican-led Congress is seated on January 3.

With Biden’s 214 judicial appointments so far, he could surpass the number Trump achieved in his first term if pending nominees are confirmed.

This rush is driven by Democrats’ desire to solidify Biden’s legacy of liberal appointees, especially as Trump prepares to assume office with a Republican Senate. The tight schedule will depend on high Democratic attendance and the support of moderate Republicans.

Trump, meanwhile, has called for Democrats to halt approvals, sparking accusations of hypocrisy.

    Germany and it cost the price of a plane ticket. The Ausländerbehörde in where ever you go should be able to help you.

      Germany is getting close to a Christian, far-right leadership, too. I was looking into them, to do what you did.

      Ultimately, if I do leave it’ll be for Spain.

        I think that’s being pushed all over Europe honestly. If you do decide on Spain, you had better bring an iron and ironing board. The Spanish do not appricate wrinkled clothes!

          Yeah, it seems to be a worldwide phenomena. How we forget WWIII so quickly as a species.

          Oh, they sure don’t! I’ve been 3 times, and speak decent Spanish, so that also factored into it.

          Good on you for making the hard decision for your family.
