This is what I have been waiting on. There are 127 vacancies and offer a tremendous opportunity for conservatives. The suggested list gets pretty good marks. I even heard a report a Schumer is not pleased with the list. Music to my ears. These appointments should be a priority.

Here's a superb example of someone eminently qualified --- and the Detroit News direct appeal to the two brain-dead Donk senators from Michigan who are expected to put her nomination on hold. The problem? They like Gorsuch as being a moderate.

QuoteBut the new president has followed up on a very conventional and respected Supreme Court pick in Neil Gorsuch with a slate of nominees for the federal appeals courts, and all nine are well qualified rule of law jurists. Not a flaming head in the bunch.

It's a list that might have been produced by Jeb Bush or John Kasich, had either Republican prevailed in the presidential race.

Michigan's Joan Larsen is the perfect example. Tapped by Trump for the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals, Larsen has impeccable credentials. She was appointed to the Michigan Supreme Court by Gov. Rick Snyder, and then won an election for the seat last fall.

Her qualifications are impossible to argue with: She graduated first in her class from Northwestern Law School, clerked on the D.C. Circuit and the U.S. Supreme Court, and taught at the University of Michigan for 17 years. She also worked in the Justice Department during the George W. Bush administration.

Larsen is the definition of a rule of law judge. While unapologetically conservative, she has earned respect across the philosophical spectrum for her scholarship and her deference to the intent of the Constitution.
