At today’s Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, something chilling happened.
John,
At today’s Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, something chilling happened.
When Senator Blumenthal used his entire line of questioning to ask judicial nominees about the 2020 election and January 6, the responses were damning.
Over and over again, the nominees hid behind evasive language about “certification,” refusing to acknowledge basic, indisputable facts of history.
When Senator Blumenthal pointed out that nominees weren’t actually answering the question, one responded with “I can’t give any further commentary.”
Then came January 6:
When asked directly whether the United States Capitol was attacked on January 6, a nominee outright refused to answer, saying “it’s debated.”
That’s when Senator Blumenthal called it exactly what it was:
“These are basic facts… If you are so much in fear of answering these questions, how will you have the courage to be a fair and impartial judge who follows the law without fear or favor?”
It’s true. If you can’t say who won the election, and if you can’t say the Capitol was attacked, then you have no business holding a seat on the federal bench.
Demand Justice is on the front lines exposing these nominees, pressuring the Senate to vote no, and working to stop election deniers from being confirmed. That fight only succeeds when grassroots supporters like you step up.
