No but all they need is 51 votes to blockade all judicial nominees and leave all those positions open for Cheeto to then fill again.  We keep going back and forth with the same people and it's ridiculous.  It's going to be the Cheeto and Mitch and Kevin Show for a few years most likely until Democrats can rebound in '26.

It really is hard to see how Dems get any Supreme Court nominees confirmed until sometime in the 2030s unless Breyer retires next year.

What a horrible justice he is for this.  Seriously, he knows the stakes.  But sure don't retire and then croak in 2026, right before the Democrats can take back the Senate, and then be replaced with someone even further to the right than Antonin Scalia.  Then we'll have only 2 progressive justices on that court.... oh dear god, the right wing dystopia that will come to be!
