#Republicans on the #Senate #Judiciary Committee voted unanimously to approve the nomination of #EmilBove III to a lifetime post as a federal appeals court judge on a voice vote after #Democrats on the panel stormed out. The protest came when the chairman, Senator #ChuckGrassley, called the roll before every Democrat on the committee had a chance to air their objections.#law #corruption https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/17/us/politics/emil-bove-judge-nomination-democrats.html?smid=url-share

“Sir, this lacks decency,” said Sen #CoryBooker, a NJ Democrat, his voice raised & visibly agitated. “It lacks decorum. It shows that you do not want to simply hear from your colleagues. This is absolutely wrong!”Grassley ignored him & plowed on. In a voice vote, committee #Republicans voted to confirm #EmilBove, 44, to a lifetime appointment on the United States Court of Appeals for the #ThirdCircuit, which encompasses #Pennsylvania, #NewJersey & #Delaware.#law #corruption

@Nonilex Church Grassley is more and more revealing his true fascist, white-supremacist self. Very discouraging since this nation is full of people with a similar background, and it seems less and less plausible to believe that there are a lot of decent people who vote Republican. #Iowa

@Nonilex #CongressionalDemocrats *really* need to take a deep, cleansing breath and get over this ludicrous "Comity with our Colleagues Across the Aisle" schtickThey've been played for fools for well over a decade, to the point where the #Republicans just spit in #Democrats' faces as the #GOP ignores them completely“Sir, this lacks decency,” ...his voice raised & visibly agitated... “It lacks decorum. It shows that you do not want to simply hear from your colleagues. This is absolutely wrong!”I'm sure #Grassley was quaking in his boots at #CoryBooker's harsh rebuke

@Nonilex I guess he's finally waking up to the fact Rep. Senators and Representatives don't give a fuck about anything related to that....or democracy as an institution. Too fucking late.

@Nonilex > Democrats stormed out in protest when the panel’s chairman, Senator ChuckGrassley, called the roll before every Democrat on the committee had a chance to air their objections.Time after time the Rebs show the Dems how to wield political power, and the lesson is never learned.So now here we are, with fascism making the call from inside the house. The Dems need to own their responsibility in this outcome. #uspol

@Nonilex THEY’RE ALL CORRUPT, all co-conspirators, all- Trump Suckers in the worst possible way you might imagine that word in your head, that’s on the right which oddly is now synonymous with ‘wrong’, all the good normal sane, Representatives walked out of this travesty.
