    The Trump administration gained a rare victory this summer in the most unlikely of venues—the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which is widely viewed as the most liberal federal appeals court. One big reason: President Donald Trump’s appointments to the 9th Circuit have moved it closer to ideological balance.

    The court, long known for being both liberal and among the most overturned circuits, has been a thorn in Trump’s side, ruling against the president multiple times, mostly on immigration policies.

    The confirmation of Trump nominee Daniel Bress in July gave the president his seventh judge on the court. It also brought the once lopsided appeals court to 16 Democrat appointees and 12 Republican appointees, with one remaining vacancy.

    The 9th circuit is responsible for over 1/3 of appeals cases nationwide.

    Thanks to Trump's appointments, the court is losing its leftist bent.

    Recent rulings suggest its having an impact.

    So?

    Federal Courts being overtly partisan is ok?

    As long as they agree with you?

    Got it.:bored:

    That's Trump's legacy, right there. Carved in stone.

    Obama's "pen and phone" legacy of executive orders was a wobbly lemonade stand that Trump kicked over in a matter of months.

    Trump's legacy is writ large in granite in the conservative courts.

    And it is a masterpiece for the ages.

    Evidently your math challenged. A 16 to 12 liberal advantage is not overtly partisan. It is approaching a hypothetical balance.

    The fact that you don't see the irony in that statement is very telling

    Irony?

    I want ALL of The Courts to have a Liberal Tilt.

    Sadly, the Draconian Measures of Right-Leaning Courts represent a threat to Liberty.

    As my dad used to say, "Want in one hand, and sh** in the other".

    A wise man, he was.

    Obama was ill prepared for his position and reminded America daily.

    Wiki leaks show the democrat party knew it was disastrous long term.

    They "persisted".

    Because idiocy will trump reality one day.

    "Idiocy will Trump reality"?

    ^Is that Trump's New 2020 Campaign Slogan?

    Anyway, back on topic, as to the Courts:

    Trump needs to be defeated in 2020 to stop the bleeding.

    Are you openly rooting for someone’s death?

    It is my understanding that approximately 80% of the 9th Circuit Court rulings have been overturned on appeal. That is indicative of a judicial activism problem, one that will hopefully be addressed by a better political balance in the court. This is a good thing for The People.

    The focus here is on the 9th which has been the single most ultra-partisan bastion of activism in the judicial branch. The point is that no, this isn't ok. Hence the efforts to fix that which have been successful. Nothing good can come from anyone being able to knowingly judge shop for an anticipated outcome.

    Um, no, these judicial appointments are LIFETIME.

    And they're specifically picking younger judges, which means they could hold their benches for the next 40 YEARS.

    How do you like that? TRUMP stamped on your forehead for the next 4 decades? Won't that be fun seeing when you look in the mirror?

    Like you don't pray for Trump's death in every other thought that runs through your head.

    Ginsburg should be removed due to health issues. Don't know if that is possible.

    Absolutely not. Your insinuation is completely out of line.
