The U.S. Senate is really ready to be giving up all their power? Can we not rely on them to be a little greedy for their own power? Acquiescing to the President can make them just a rubber stamp, like the russian duma, and effectively powerless.

There’s still one #recourse for #SupremeCourt #justices who #lied at their #confirmations
In #essence, all these #justices committed #perjury at their #Senate #confirmationhearings, which is a #crime under Title 18 of U.S. Code, and an #impeachable #offense.

The result is frustration among senior #Pentagon leaders & Democratic lawmakers who say Tuberville’s procedural #blockade is hurting #operations & creating hardship for #MilitaryFamilies, who are in limbo until the assignments are approved, waiting the move to their next #posts. But #Tuberville is unconvinced that his move poses any serious #military #readiness issues….

#Tuberville, first threatened to #block #military #nomination votes on the #Senate floor late last year & halted all #confirmations & senior #promotions starting in early March. There are now 186 #uniformed & #civilian #nominees stalled as a result of the move, & more expected in coming weeks.

#Senate #Republicans #MarshaBlackburn (R-TN) & #ThomTillis (R-NC), of the #SenateJudiciaryCommittee say they’ll #obstruct a temp replacement for Sen #DianneFeinstein (D-CA), whose extended health-related absence has stalled #confirmations of Pres #Biden’s judicial nominees. Only judges w/some Republican support can move to the floor w/o her tiebreaking vote.
