Amazingly, the chyron is not the most foolish thing about this picture. To get ahead of a potential refugee crisis caused by great suffering in Central America, it would make sense to use our resources to help reduce that suffering. This is self-defeating.

Let me get this straight: Trump wants the federal court to postpone indefinitely hearing a case claiming that he is illegally profiting from his Washington hotel, because the government shutdown, created by Trump, prohibits his attorneys from working. politico.com/story/2018/12/2…

Trump lawyers, citing shutdown, ask court for delay in emoluments case

The Justice Department is one of the agencies lacking appropriations because of the shutdown.

I have informed the Majority Leader that I will not vote to advance any of the 21 judicial nominees pending in the Judiciary Committee, or vote to confirm the 32 judges awaiting action on the floor, until the Mueller protection bill is brought to the full Senate for a vote.

I’m a former US Attorney. If a judge/juror made a public statement that their mind was made up before all testimony is in, the trial would be prejudiced & I’d move for mistrial & have the judge removed. Mr. Leader, is this the message we want to send to victims of sexual assault?
