BREAKING: The Senate just confirmed extremist nominee Michael Brennan to a permanent seat on the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals on a party-line vote.1/
Brennan is the 1st judicial nom that @ChuckGrassley & @SenateMajLdr have pushed to confirm w/out a blue slip. They advanced Brennan's nomination over the strong objections of WI @SenatorBaldwin, breaking Senate tradition & setting a combative precedent. afj.org/blog/brennan-n… 2/
Brennan holds alarming views on women's, LGBT, & civil rights that make him #UnfitToJudge in a lifetime appointment on one of the highest courts in the US. #CourtsMatter #TrumpJudges afj.org/wp-content/upl… 3/
With their actions today, Senate R’s are crossing a line from which there is no return. Today they get to rubber-stamp Trump’s extreme judges, but in the future their ability to represent their constituents and the institution of the Senate is weakened. 4/4
