The House Democrats stalling the articles of impeachment doesn’t mean the Senate doesn’t have anything to do. The chamber of Congress led by Sen. Mitch McConnell has been confirming Trump-nominated judges at record pace, and this week was no different:

It’s gotten to the point where this is turning into a very triggering experience for progressive politicians. Trump continuing to nominate judges has even caused Dems like NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo to take drastic action in response:

Peak TDS. Just wait for what will happened to Fredo’s brother once TDS 2.0 kicks in on November 4.

Cuomo: "Our state is built on diversity, tolerance & inclusion".
Also Cuomo: "We cannot tolerate or include anything related to Trump".
