Trump seeks to install one of @SenateMajLdr's Kentucky cronies onto DC Circuit—a 38-year-old guy installed as a loyalist district judge only six months ago, after a rare "not qualified" @ABAesq rating ... and 100+ interviews defending Kavanaugh https://www.law360.com/employment/articles/1260138
From @civilrightsorg in Oct 2019: "Federal judges should be fair and independent, but Walker’s confirmation is pure nepotism.... Trump and McConnell have now rewarded him for his relentless loyalty during the tumultuous S. Ct. nomination fight last year." https://civilrights.org/2019/10/24/walker-is-unfit-for-a-lifetime-seat/
Walker is the same Trump judicial loyalist whose ceremonial celebration @SenateMajLdr prioritized over working on legislation to respond to the coronavirus pandemic a few weeks ago —> https://twitter.com/chrislhayes/status/1240043987966349312
So much right-wing judicial corruption: " @SenateMajLdr ... knows Walker’s grandfather and first met Walker when he interviewed the future majority leader for an article for his high school newspaper." #GOPsleaze " https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trump-taps-former-kavanaugh-clerk-to-fill-vacancy-on-powerful-dc-appeals-court/2020/04/03/3ddb5e50-7446-11ea-ae50-7148009252e3_story.html
Picked to be installed onto the D.C. Circuit after six months as a Trump judicial loyalist and a grand total of eight opinions and orders.
