Biden reportedly planned to nominate the anti-abortion judge the day the Supreme Court gutted Roe.
to the federal bench, in an apparent agreement the president struck with the Senate minority leader. In exchange,, McConnell will “allow Biden to nominate and confirm two U.S. attorneys to Kentucky.” Which is not only an absurd trade given the current state of reproductive rights, but one that Biden didn‘t even need to make.
As Mystal pointed out, “McConnell cannot actually stop Biden from appointing whomever he wants to fill the U.S. attorney seats”; Biden just needs 51 votes, which he has, and is only limiting himself by a Senate convention thatregularly flouted. In short, there is no reason whatsoever for him to strike this deal with McConnell, and a lot of good reasons for him not to.
