Senator Dianne Feinstein was furious with the White House for moving forward with 9th Circuit nominees without ‘consulting her’ first.
Oh, ouch, our sides.
Does she REALLY think she has a leg to stand on after the crap she pulled with Kavanaugh?
Puh-lease.
The decision to move forward on 9th Circuit nominees without consultation or responding to my acceptance of the White House’s offer reflects President Trump’s desire to stack the court. I expect my blue slips to be honored as I was acting in good faith. https://t.co/7EYWmi7V0k

She wrote:
“I repeatedly told the White House I wanted to reach an agreement on a package of 9th Circuit nominees, but last night the White House moved forward without consulting me, picking controversial candidates from its initial list and another individual with no judicial experience who had not previously been suggested.
“The decision to move forward with these nominees without consultation or responding to my acceptance of the White House offer reflects President Trump’s desire to remake the court. I expect my blue slips to be honored as I was acting in good faith.”
She ‘expects’ her blue slips to be honored as she was acting in good faith.
Like she was acting in good faith when she sat on Ford’s letter for two months? That sort of good faith?
This woman.
Was sitting on Ford’s letter only to spring it at the last minute what you call “acting in good faith“?

And she accused Trump of trying to stack the courts?
Sounds like you could have fought it, but Chucky knows Senate D's are about to get clobbered on Nov. 6 and wanted everyone to go home and rally their respective Mobs! So your jobs came before fighting for the courts.

DiFi is in trouble in CA, the Democratic party there didn’t even endorse her.
You used up your good faith chips with Kavanaugh

Just hold on to those blue slips for sixty more days, honey.

Good faith like when you sat on Dr. Ford's letter for 6 weeks? #TermLimits

"I was acting in good faith" <- She said it, so it must be true!

She’s so done.
Ma’am you’ve lost a couple steps. Please #retire

They said please, Dianne.
You don’t ever act in good faith. You’re a dishonest hack who exploits women, obviously massive liar.

With all due respect Senator, you showed all your “chips” during the Kavanaugh nomination hearing. You should be brought up on ethics charges. Do not question anymore what President Trump and GOP leaders are doing. You need to resign or be removed from the Senate in disgrace!
— Julia Hanley (@bhfrancais) October 12, 2018
Nothing you do is in good faith! Period!
— Beef Stroganoff ?? (@Brian_P14) October 12, 2018
You’ve shown so much good faith the last 3 weeks. GIVE IT A REST!!!
— marc morton (@marcmorton99) October 11, 2018
It is highly doubtful you have acted in good faith since the late 1990s.

When you say ‘acting in good faith’ you deserve an Oscar!
