9. Judges are 100 000X more important the next 60 days.

Period. We made it this far without the farm bill, letting the Republicans show what who they are is the best course forward. Our only hope of survival the next 2-4 years is some responsibility from the Judicial branch. We know there will be an AG bent on weaponizing all of DOF, just as J Edgar Hoover famously did with the FBI. Ever judge we can get seated in the next 60 days increases our outlook just a little.

I'm sorry if this impacts SNAP, but we have to think with our brains, not our emotions. Every remaining second of the Senate's time must be spent on seating judges.

And it would be nice if Biden could lift a finger to urge the Postal Board to dump DeJoy while there is still time. All this playing nice has royally screwed us.
