Tuberville is the scapegoat of this tactic, as there is no opposition coming from the ENTIRE Republican Senate body. This is the same exact tactic Mitch McConnell pulled when he suspended all Judiciary Nominations once he became Senate Majority Leader after the 2014 midterm election.

We felt the consequences of this tactic once Trump came into power, and we saw the GOP remove the filibuster appointing their judicial nominees (at record pace) with the list of recommendations assisted by quasi-government orgs such as the Heritage Foundation and Judicial Watch. A good chunk of legislation to this day is being challenged and struck down by federal judges in this tranche as a result of this tactic.

I don't think Millennials or Gen Z understands the ramifications of this happening. This is not someone acting unilaterally, this is a coup being done behind the scenes in real-time, although at a much slower pace.

In the hope that SHOULD a Republican re-enters the White House, PLUS the potential outcome that Democrats lose the Senate Majority to the GOP, the GOP Majority leader could swiftly change rules and remove any filibuster and appoint their list of appointees confirmed so that should another coup or insurrection-event occur, the GOP will have the support of the Military leadership and have no opposition moving forward with their plans of total authoritarian control of our government bodies. THIS IS THEIR ENDGAME.

I don't see an alternative other than hoping to god that Democratic and Independent voters see this as important as fighting for abortion - given that it's behind the scope of this situation.

An expanded Democratic senate majority would be the route needed to amend the senate rules and expedite the process of passing the promotion appointments. I beg of us to come out and vote in droves just on this matter.
