'...federal law [that] vests full authority in the deputy attorney general should the office of attorney general become vacant.' Question: Since when did we have 'federal law' any more?

These are sound arguments and should be resolved in the SC but I would also argue that Whitaker is not an acceptable choice for a number of other issues, including he is under investigation by the FBI for fraud & also his blatant bias against the Special Counsel...

So? Guess which political hacks are on the Supreme Court.

He has a toilet named after him

Interesting.

WhitakerMustGo

Idiots don't know the law! He's illegitimate and a fraud!

Look at that line of losers.. Ben Carson And Steve Mnuchin still have jobs?

Can all Trump appointees recuse themselves from continuing to ruin the country? Can all trump supporters forgo voting for the foreseeable future?

Oh my gosh..lets worry about America...

SkeptiCatz Why? The SupremeCourt is damaged now; nothing they do will be viewed as credible.

Oh great, by Bart Squi Kavanaugh

TJSeraphim Lex Luther's been challenged! Say it ain't so?

Rosenstein should have recused himself for being a potential witness and for sign FISA.

Good thing we now have a constitutionalist majority !

The court is not required to decide one way or another and could simply ignore or reject the motion. hahaha

That used to mean something. Now I have no faith in the court being impartial or objective.

This should go ... nowhere

Are they going to have to scrape Brett Kavanaugh out of a pool of his own beer puke to vote?

Opinion | The Justice Department’s new tactic: Leapfrog judicial process and go straight to the Supreme CourtThe new tactic risks overloading the Supreme Court with politically fraught challenges to Trump administration policies. The democrats new tactic, go right to the 9th circuit. You really think people are stupid, don't you ? That's bc Republicans have fashioned the Supreme Court to be an automatic distributor of get-out-of-jail-free cards just for themselves. They got tired of being delayed and rejected by the ninth circuit. Can you blame them?

Supreme Court to hear case on Trump administration plan to add citizenship question to 2020 CensusThe Supreme Court agreed Friday to weigh in on the dispute over the Trump administration's plan to add a question about citizenship to the 2020 Census. This seems like a common sense question to ask on a Census. There's no other question more important or relevant pertaining to the population today. It absolutely should be on the census. Opponents to the question fear illegals who answer it both truthfully and ignore it. The Dems don’t want a citizenship question because without such a question, illegal immigrants count toward population numbers used to determine how many seats in the House a state can have. Counting illegals in those numbers favors Dems.

Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts calls out Trump for his attack on a judgeSupreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts took a swipe at President Donald Trump, saying there are no “Obama judges or Trump judges” after Trump attacked the judge who ruled against his attempt to restrict asylum-seekers at the border. On this Thanksgiving Eve, I'm thankful for the Mueller investigation and hopeful that an impeachment is around the corner in 2019. People know that isn't true. If it was, then it wouldn't matter who was elected President so far as making judge appointments. John Roberts has flipped from Bush Judge to Obama Judge!

US does have 'Obama judges': Trump responds to Supreme Court Justice John Roberts' rebuke'We do not have Obama judges or Trump judges, Bush judges or Clinton judges,' Roberts said. 'What we have is an extraordinary group of dedicated judges.' 99% of the world takes issue with the crap realDonaldTrump utters. President Trump then took issue in return. There certainly are Obama left wing activist judges out there. He certainly knows this. Plus Obama dressed this guy down more than once.

The Latest: No holiday break for Trump's court criticismWASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts and President Donald Trump (all times local): 8:05 a.m. President Donald Trump has begun his Thanksgiving Day by resuming his public dispute with Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts over the independence of the American judiciary. Trump started the back-and-forth this week with remarks critical of a judge who was appointed by President Barack Obama and who rejected Trump's migrant asylum policy. Roberts responded Wednesday in a statement by saying there are no 'Obama judges or Trump judges' but instead 'an extraordinary group of dedicated judges.' Trump's holiday criticism of the judicial branch of government takes aim at California's 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which long has had a majority of judges appointed by Democratic presidents, with the current breakdown 16-7. Trump tweets that Roberts 'can say what he wants, but the 9th Circuit is a complete & total disaster.' It's cool how it's trump appointed judges who are striking down his orders Such an embarrassment to the executive branch. How do you spell pathetic? T R U M P
