I have seen Senator Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) do some very despicable things since I have been writing about politics.
However, this one is a new low.
Just to ram through judges, Schumer had Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) fly across the country to rubber stamp these nominees.
Disgusting
First and foremost, Judge Charnelle Bjelkengren was unqualified, period.
Feinstein was not even in committee during her confirmation hearings.
Her hearing went viral over the line of questioning by Senator Kennedy (R-LA).
Kennedy asked her if she knew what Articles II and V of the Constitution were, and she had no clue.
Sen. Ted Cruz:
“Charnelle Bjelkengren is so amazingly unqualified, she may well have the title for the least qualified nominee I've seen in 11 years serving on this committee. When Senator Kennedy asked her what Article 5 of the Constitution was, she had no idea.” pic.twitter.com/sBSO47efcC

Feinstein, who is 89 years old, is still recovering from shingles.
The pictures that surfaced of her arriving at the Senate looked like something out of a horror movie.
I never feel sorry for a Democrat and I could not help but feel sorry for this 89-year-old woman that had just flown across the country, clearly in pain, just to be used by Schumer and Democrats as a rubber stamp.
Her vote was the difference maker, with Bjelkengren getting out of committee with an 11-10 vote.
