April Ryan: Joe Biden ‘Is that Standard-Bearer for What the Founding Fathers Put in Place’
EXCERPT:
RYAN: "It's simple. The president, this president, Joe Biden, did not want to give president-elect Donald Trump a chance to add more conservatism into our courts, bottom line. I mean, you have so many people talking about how everything is weighed down right now. The White House on January 20th at noon will be Republican. The House, the Senate, what? Republican. And the Supreme Court leans Republican. So this president wanted to ensure checks and balances. He is that standard-bearer for what the Founding Fathers put in place. He wants the checks and balances and he wants to make sure everything goes well. And think about this. Think about this. Even though it wasn’t a federal judgeship, think about what happened with Merrick Garland. Think about the fact that Merrick Garland never got a chance to even have interviews with some senators. because they rebuffed, they did not want to have a Democrat on the U.S. Supreme Court. And in some ways, this is that as well. This is trying to hold the line to make sure once again that fairness and equal play and checks and balances are in place."
