GOP confirms Trump’s 100th judicial nominee, gears up for more


(Worthy News) – Senate Republicans confirmed President Trump’s 100th federal judge on Thursday, speeding through a series of picks this week thanks to the GOP’s nuclear option move last month.

Judge Rudolfo Armando Ruiz II was No. 100, approved on a 90-8 vote to a seat on a U.S. district court in Florida. The Senate also approved two other district judges Thursday, bringing to eight the number of nominees approved in floor votes this week.

That’s a much faster pace than could have happened under the old rules before Majority Leader Mitch McConnell triggered the nuclear option to change the rules. [ Source: Washington Times (Read More…) ]
