Kentucky governor urges Biden to rescind controversial court pick

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear (D) called on President Biden during a press conference on Thursday to rescind any decision to nominate Chad Meredith to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky.

“It’s been plenty of time and by now they should be telling us that it’s going to be rescinded,” Beshear said.

Meredith has not been nominated to the court, but The Hill and other news organizations have obtained emails that suggest the White House was on the verge of nominating Meredith the same day the Supreme Court overturned the Roe v. Wade decision on abortion rights.

Meredith’s nomination was not made on June 24, the day of the Supreme Court’s decision, and has not been made since.

1. I still can't believe Biden is considering this.

Trusting Moscow Mitch is stupid.

3. You know on this one, it seems like sticking with priciples is a no brainer. Thois is how we

have gotten int the trouble we face in our nation today. Hedging on principles thousands of times over the last 5 decades. On many of those occasions, the hedge seemed reasonable benefit/cost-wise, but this occasion seems obviously different. A no-brainer.
