I wonder if any Senator will use a blue slip to block Edward R. Martin, Jr., from Missouri from becoming the DC US Attorney? If he's not confirmed after 120 days the DC US district judges appoint the interim USA under 28 U.S.C. § 546(d). @SenatorDurbin

The whole “The Rule of Law is dead” narrative is so toxic because if we’re just supposed to give up here, then what about people in Hungary, Turkey, Venezuela, and countries far more authoritarian than those? What about Black Americans decades and generations ago in the Jim Crow South? 1/🧵
