RNLA member Mark Meuser is running for Secretary of State in California, but Facebook has twice refused to verify his campaign's account.  Under Facebook's new advertising policy, this prevents Mr. Meuser's campaign account from advertising on Facebook:

On Friday, May 25, President Trump continued to “drain the swamp” by signing three new Executive Orders designed to allow the swifter removal of underperforming government workers, ensure that taxpayer-funded union expenditures are subjected to higher accountability standards, and require a common-sense approach to collective bargaining in government employment. Given that over 2,100,000 people presently work for the federal government, the overhaul of discipline and union policies will enable substantial changes to the currently bloated, and often turgid, personnel bureaucracies throughout the system.

Today, the RNLA submitted a comment to the Federal Election Commission on its proposed rule making on Internet advertisement disclaimers:

Today former RNLA Chair Randy Evans was finally confirmed to be Ambassador to Luxembourg after his nomination first was announced last September. The delay in confirming Ambassador Evans was part of the Democrats' general obstruction of President Trump's nominees.

Today, a judge in the Southern District of New York held that President Trump may not block users from his personal Twitter account, @realDonaldTrump:

Washington is abuzz with rumors of a possible upcoming Supreme Court vacancy. Many are trying to watch for clues and predict whether a vacancy is impending over the next several weeks. Traditionally, many judges and justices opt to retire at the end of a court's term, which for the U.S. Supreme Court occurs in last week of June.

The Washington, DC liberal political elite is spinning madly over the fact that it appears that the Obama Administration and FBI spied on the Trump campaign. If true, this is extremely troubling and possibly the worst example of the politicization of the FBI by the last administration. As Rep. Devin Nunes, Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, stated:

Perhaps realizing that their ahistorical and inaccurate laments over the death of the blue slip tradition last week were ineffective, during today's Senate Judiciary Committee meeting, Democrats returned to attacking President Trump's judicial nominees' qualifications.  Today is the 64th anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, so the Democrats chose that as their preferred mode of attack.

Under the leadership of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley, President Trump's well qualified judicial nominees are slowly, but surely, getting confirmed despite obstructionist Senate Democrats. In this post, we wanted to provide a brief recap of the current judicial landscape.
