Today, every Senate Judiciary Committee Democrat voted no on Trump's four judicial nominees—loyalists nominated to do Trump's bidding, not to serve the law.
Trump's cronies are failing to prove their independence time and time again, and Democrats are finally holding the line. #NoCronyJudges
Unacceptable. Trump’s judicial nominee Christopher Wolfe was pressed by Senator Blumenthal about what happened on January 6th, and instead of giving his own answer, he repeated talking points to appease Trump.
He failed to show that he’s loyal to the truth and the constitution. #NoCronyJudges
Trump's judicial nominees are puppets of his Big Lie. Andrew Davis and Anna St. John refused to say Biden won in 2020, instead signing on to another nominee’s evasive non-answer. If they can't tell the truth about basic facts now, how will they rule on our rights from the bench?
This Supreme Court has lost the faith of the people because of this kind of blatant partisanship. It desperately needs reform.
As Justice Sotomayor makes clear, this Court blew past its own rules to meddle in a state law dispute, without even letting New York's highest court weigh in.
This decision follows a pattern: blatant and hypocritical power grabs, dressed up as legal arguments. Absurdly, Justice Alito called New York’s effort to protect minority voters “racial discrimination,” turning the Constitution on its head to shield a Republican gerrymander.
BREAKING: Last night the Supreme Court once again twisted the law to give Republicans power, allowing lawmakers in New York to hit pause on a fairer congressional map in their state.
Trump's judicial nominee Anna St. John opposed bipartisan legislation that ensures sexual assault survivors can take their cases to court -- instead of being forced into secret arbitration.

Four Trump judicial nominees, four near identical answers that refuse to admit Trump actually lost the 2020 election.
This is not the time for Democrats to look away. We need our elected officials to call out nominees who evade the truth out of loyalty to Trump.
Following a loss at the Supreme Court, Trump railed against the Court that has time and time again ruled in his favor. But in his view, that is not enough. He demands blind loyalty from justices and judges and all but said as much. #NoMoreCronyJudges
Justin Smith is Trump's personal attorney, trying to wipe out a sexual abuse and defamation verdict against his boss. @bloomberglaw.com: news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/...
Finally. Democrats are using their leverage and standing firm against Trump's authoritarian agenda. It’s exactly what Americans want to see, as our President Josh Orton shared on Meet the Press NOW.
These are moral imperatives: Democrats need to focus on the economy - and, at the same time - stay focused on Epstein and ICE. It's what Americans expect, as Demand Justice President Josh Orton said on Meet the Press NOW.
@blumenthal.senate.gov caught Trump judicial nominee John Thomas Shepherd trying to dodge questions about J6. If you can't be honest about January 6th, you don't deserve a lifetime federal judgeship. #NoCronyJudges
We will hold those accountable who fail to meet this moment. Our credibility depends on it. If they don't do their job, we will. And we won't let up. Learn more at demandjustice.org
There is no political, legal, or historical justification for confirming judges who refuse to tell the truth about an attack on American democracy. None.
Just days after Trump seized 2020 ballots from a GA election office, @duckworth.senate.gov cast her first vote for Trump judicial nominee, Aaron Peterson, alongside Senators @durbin.senate.gov, @hassan.senate.gov, @kaine.senate.gov, @kelly.senate.gov, @shaheen.senate.gov and @whitehouse.senate.gov
Trump's judicial nominee Andrew Davis refused to acknowledge what we all saw with our own eyes: January 6, 2021 was an attack on the Capitol. We won't accept leaders who deny what we witnessed with our own eyes. We demand #NoCronyJudges
William Hastie broke barriers twice: first Black federal judge (1937) and first Black federal appellate judge (1950). His landmark civil rights victories paved the way for Black judges at all levels. We honor his legacy. Happy #BlackHistoryMonth
Trump is weaponizing the Justice Department to chase his conspiracy theories and create chaos before the 2026 elections. This isn't normal. And every single elected official needs to stand up and say so. @nytimes.com: www.nytimes.com/2026/01/28/u...
NEW: Chief Justice Roberts is requiring SCOTUS employees to sign NDAs threatening legal consequences for revealing what happens behind closed doors—right as Americans demand transparency. @nytimes.com: www.nytimes.com/2026/02/02/u...
We can't afford half-measures, especially not from the Democratic Party. Yet, 18 Dem. senators have confirmed at least one Trump judicial nominee who refused to tell the truth about J6 and the 2020 election. We'll hold everyone accountable, regardless of party. demandjustice.org
Now, the threat extends to our courts. Trump is working to stack the bench with loyalists who put politics over the rule of law.
We will fight for independent courts, hold senators in both parties accountable for confirming dangerous nominees, and build a movement to restore the rule of law.
16 years ago today, Citizens United opened the floodgates to unlimited corporate money in our politics.
The consequences are clear: corporations wield more power in Washington and pad their profits, special interests write the rules, and the guardrails protecting the public interest are eroded.
@anguskingiii.bsky.social (Maine), @klobuchar.senate.gov (Minnesota), @reed.senate.gov (Rhode Island), @schiff.senate.gov (California), @shaheen.senate.gov (New Hampshire), @welch.senate.gov (Vermont), and @whitehouse.senate.gov (Rhode Island) voted to confirm Harold Mooty as a U.S. district judge.
In October 2025, Senators @coons.senate.gov (Delaware), @durbin.senate.gov (Illinois), @fetterman.senate.gov (Pennsylvania), @hassan.senate.gov (New Hampshire), @heinrich.senate.gov (New Mexico), @kaine.senate.gov (Virginia), @captmarkkelly.bsky.social (Arizona)...
This is a lifetime appointment for someone who avoids saying whether Trump lost the 2020 election. So why did these Senate Democrats vote for this crony judge? 🧵
Under the leadership of Josh Orton, Demand Justice uses our megaphone to demonstrate steadfast opposition to the dismantling and corruption of our legal system, courts and the rule of law. @nytimes.com: www.nytimes.com/2025/09/30/u...
