For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only

▪️ Title must match the article headline

▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)

▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners

Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.

Rule 5: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.

Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

I'm just a little confused by how he thinks this is a strategy, but maybe I'm uninformed.

Just before Christmas, they achieved their goal of pushing through a record 235 judicial nominations, more confirmations in a single administration than any since the Jimmy Carter White House.

Nominations. And these get confirmed how? In a MAGA world? Or have they already been confirmed. Would be cool if the article, you know, included that.

Edit because I did their work for them. https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2024/12/20/fact-sheet-president-biden-secures-confirmation-of-235th-federal-judge/

I think the phrase "pushing through" signifies that the nomination process was successful.
