Senate Democrats Confirm Another Two Radical Judges Because Two GOP Senators Did Not Show Up

by Jim Hᴏft Nov. 20, 2024

 

The U.S. Senate on Wednesday confirmed two more of Joe Biden’s radical judicial nominees to federal district courts—thanks in part to the absence of key GOP senators.

 

With Kamala Harris conveniently vacationing in Hawaii, the GOP had a golden opportunity to block these nominations. Instead, their failure to show up handed Democrats another victory.

 

Democrats confirmed Rebecca L. Pennell to the Eastern District of Washington in a 50-48 vote.

 

Republican firebrand Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) inexplicably missed the vote, joining Braun in the hall of shame, while Senator Joe Manchin (I-WV) voted against the confirmation.

 

If that wasn’t enough, Democrats confirmed Amir Ali to the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.

Amir Ali, a left-wing activist and Executive Director of the MacArthur Justice Center, was confirmed to a federal trial court in Washington, D.C., by a razor-thin vote of 50-49.

 

Ali, whose career has focused on dismantling law enforcement systems and advocating for the defunding of police, now holds a lifetime judicial appointment.

 

Despite Senator Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ) standing against Ali’s nomination, voting “no,” Senator Mike Braun (R-IN) was nowhere to be found during the vote, leaving Democrats to confirm Ali without the tie-breaking vote of Harris.

 

Amazingly, Ted Cruz managed to show up.

 

This is the second time Senator Mike Braun has missed this critical voting.

 

On Monday, the U.S. Senate confirmed Embry Kidd to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit with a razor-thin 49-45 vote.

 

Republican senators faced criticism for failing to prevent this appointment, with several notable absences during the vote.

 

Among those missing were:

 

Mike Braun (R-IN)

Steve Daines (R-MT)

Bill Hagerty (R-TN)

Marco Rubio (R-FL)

J.D. Vance (R-OH)

 

West Virginia Democrat Joe Manchin (I-WV) broke ranks to vote against Kidd, and John Fetterman (D-PA) did not show up.

W.H.O. Chief Tedros Hospitalized in Rio de Janeiro

by John Hayward 21 Nov 2024

World Health Organization (W.H.O.) Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus was hospitalized on Wednesday night in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where he had been attending the G20 summit.

 

Hospital Samaritano Barra da Tijuca in Rio said the W.H.O. chief, 59, was admitted on Wednesday afternoon for “necessary tests, which confirmed clinical indicators with no signs of seriousness.”

 

The hospital said Tedros spent the night under observation and was released on Thursday morning. He was reportedly given medication for high blood pressure.

 

Brazilian media reports said Tedros presented with “symptoms of labyrinthitis and an hypertensive crisis.” He had complained of feeling unwell earlier in the week at the G20 summit and has previously been diagnosed with hypertension. Labyrinthitis is an infection of the inner ear that can cause vertigo and nausea.

 

“I am fortunate that I was diagnosed early and have access to good medical care,” Tedros said of his condition last year. “Unfortunately, the same is not true for the majority of those with hypertension, especially for those in lower-income countries and communities.”

 

Tedros confirmed on Thursday that he was discharged from the hospital and back to work.

 

“What saddens me the most is that I am unable to deliver on my promise to pick up my daughter from school today, as my departure was delayed due to the illness,” he said.

 

“Even though it might seem like a small thing, these everyday moments are incredibly important. It’s in those interactions that we build our bonds and show our love. Those moments truly matter,” he said.

 

“Please take care of your health – it’s your greatest wealth,” he advised.
