BREAKING: Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) has just REFUSED to block a Trump judicial nominee, despite having the unilateral ability to do so with the "blue slip" — Democrats are FURIOUS
This is the *first time* in Trump's 2nd term a Democrat did not block a Trump nominee!
Antonio Pozos will now be allowed to ADVANCE, as neither Sen. Dave McCormick (R) or Fetterman used their blue slip powers, which effectively allow one senator block a judicial nominee for their state at any time — Punchbowl
Pozos was nominated to the Eastern District of PA.
Now, blue groups are gearing up to run ADS against Fetterman because of this move.
We should STILL GET RID OF BLUE SLIPS, they are blocking Trump nominees in other states!The media could not be played.
