So it turns out, the 36 year old lawyer picked for a federal judiciary position, who was unanimously rejected by the Bar Association as unqualified and who has such a right-wing bias he's unfit for the judiciary, was picked and approved by Trump/Republicans, because he's married to a senior White House Counsel lawyer.

This is so astronomically corrupt. Say what you want about Obama, but his Administration was never this openly corrupt and criminal. This isn't some limited administration position, it's a life-time term to a federal court, and people getting approved are only getting it because of their right-wing extremism and ties to the White House.

So disgusting. Republicans are truly the most corrupt people on the planet.

Silly post. Did he also fail to disclose what brand of shoes he wears?

Last time I check your marriage is quite public info.

But keep trying. You might find something important.

Corruption and criminality? What else is new? Just business as usual in the DC swamp.

A corrupt disbarred lawyer is a perfect match for the orange turd administration. Not only that, but the crook has zero experience as a judge and has tried no cases in court. Again, a match made in hell.

Sorry. Don't have a NYT subscription. Who you are married to isn't a secret or criminal. Anyone, including you or I, can find out that info using Google. If they don't want him, don't vote for him.

Attorney General Robert Kennedy was JFK's brother. Was the Kennedy administration corrupt because of it?

Corrupt and criminal by not disclosing the information.

But of course in right-wing world there's nothing wrong with dishonesty, lying on your job application and having zero integrity. He's a perfect match for Trump!

Yes, it was. Nepotism laws were specifically passed because Kennedy hired his brother to be AG.

Do you seriously see nothing wrong with a man who has never tried a case and was deemed completely unfit to serve as a judge by the ABA getting chosen for a lifetime court appointment because his wife works for Trump?

We all know you'd be calling for impeachment if Obama did that, so spare me the hypocritical, "it's no big deal" BS.

That's far too sensible. Unacceptable to liberals!
