President Trump to Soon Nominate Justice to Fill Supreme Court Vacancy
Dear Friend:
I’m sure that you’ve seen the news.
Justice Anthony Kennedy is retiring. So President Donald Trump now has an opportunity to nominate another justice to the Supreme Court.
If you hadn’t noticed, the entire leftist movement is going nuts.
You can be sure, that unless the replacement is a budding leftist (like David Souter), Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and other Senate Democrats will move heaven and earth to utterly destroy him.
Regardless, it is important that we encourage the President to nominate a justice who is grounded in the Constitution — and who will stand by every word of it (including the Second Amendment).
There are some good nominees on the President’s list — people like Senator Mike Lee of Utah, who would be an outstanding pick.
So, if you have a Twitter account, you can tweet the President here to encourage him to pick a pro-gun, constitutionalist judge. (If you’re not on Twitter, you can email here.)
Urge him to select a nominee in the mold of Senator Lee or Justice Neil Gorsuch or the late Antonin Scalia.
GOP rushing confirmation of leftist judge
Curiously, the Senate GOP is vigorously pushing anti-gun leftist Mark Bennett, who has been nominated to the Far Left Ninth Circuit bench.
The Senate will be voting on the Bennett nomination this Monday, July 9.
Bennett opposed the Heller Court’s finding that the Second Amendment is an individual right. He also opposed GOA’s right to participate in the political process, which was recognized in the Citizens United case.
Bennett is a leftist across the board.
And yet, the GOP leadership is forcing a vote on him — while a large number of conservative nominees remain unconfirmed.
On Monday, July 9, we will know who President Trump’s nomination is for the Supreme Court.
We will know whether we have to mobilize the Second Amendment community on behalf of a Trump Judicial Pick.
But it is a two-way street.
Donald Trump and the senate GOP owe us an obligation to ensure that their judicial picks unreservedly support the right to keep and bear arms.
Mark Bennett is NOT such a pick.
So please contact your senators — and encourage them to OPPOSE the Bennett nomination for the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.
Thank you.
In Liberty,
