Judge Randolph Moss wrote in the ruling that Cuccinelli’s newly created title by the Trump administration failed to satisfy the necessary legal standard and lacked “any substance.”

Um, Judge? The cooch could be carrying the ten commandments chiseled in stone freshly delivered him by the archangel Gabriel, and he would still lack any substance.

If there is anything that Mitch McConnell’s senate is known for, it is blocking Trump’s nominees.

“Cuccinelli responded that ‘various aspects of appointment have been used’ before going on a tangent about how the Trump administration is frustrated with Democrats blocking Senate confirmations.”

Seriously?

He’s gonna go with that…?!

But Kookinelli was appointed by Jesus? The Senate, SCOTUS, et.al. are irrelevant. All Hail (All Hair?) the Supreme Orange God, Trump!

I know that Cuccinelli operates in a fact-free world - but could he even point to one nominee who has been blocked.
Oh, and Ken, stop your tears as I have two words for you - Merrick Garland.

Cooch didn’t need any Democratic votes to be confirmed. It was GOPers who stopped his nomination.

Fox & Friends is a joke, alright. So is Cooch, except he has done a lot of damage to a lot of people and wants to continue doing so.

And just exactly how are Democrats blocking Senate confirmations, Cooch? Last we all saw, Moscow Mitch still has a majority, nearly all of whom are too worried about their own re-election to dare to go against Trump.

Yo Ken go read the decision. There is an issue and it is Trump who refuses to follow the advise and consent stuff.

Doesn’t Cuccinelli have a rap sheet as long as a CVS receipt?

administration failed to satisfy the necessary legal standard and lacked “any substance.”

But your honor, failing legal standards and lacking “any substance” is written into the administration’s mission statement. We’re trying to operate on a whim and a prayer here.

Apparently Cuccinelli is illegal. Deport him.

Last time I checked Moscow Mitch still had 53 GOP votes in the Senate. So what’s this about Democrats?
