One of Trump's judicial picks, James Sullivan, just lost his election to the Texas Supreme Court last Tuesday. A day later, the White House submitted his paperwork to the Senate judiciary panel to rush him through and make him a lifetime federal judge.

I hope the state Dem party is already trying to recruit a strong candidate to run against him. He filed to run in 2028. He's a dinosaur who needs to go.
