With speculation spreading across Washington about possible Trump administration nominees, at least one concrete list of names is already public: 20 people Trump would appoint to the U.S. Supreme Court.
In an unprecedented move, Trump released a list of 11 names in May and 10 more in September, drawn from federal and state courts, as well as one nonjudge: Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, who quickly said he was not interested. That leaves 20 judges in the spotlight for a nomination process that is traditionally kept secret until one person is chosen. |

| For 8 years we've sacrificed our sovereignty, our national security, and our identity as Americans on the altar of "diversity." If all else is equal, fine, diversify. If not, the best qualified gets the job. This election proves Americans are hungry for a return to rational decision making, not more political correctness. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
