Aileen Cannon is just ONE of the ridiculously unqualified "judges" appointed by tfg.

Unfortunately, there are numerous others who are just as incompetent, inexperienced, transparently partisan and profoundly stupid as this twit. They have tainted and discredited the judiciary from the magistrates up to and including the SCOTUS.

For four years, the primary requirement for appointment to a federal judgeship was a willingness to support tfg's nonsense du jour.

Surely some of them---in addition to "judge" Cannon--- have committed impeachable offenses.

Giving the benefit of the doubt to a nominee might be in the generous nature of a Democrat.

Perhaps especially to nominees of historically under-represented groups.

And McConnell is still in the Senate, vetting future judges for lifetime appointments.

Trump is taking down the Federalist Society along with the rest of the country.
