 WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Trump administration on Monday named 10 judges and other law professionals it plans to nominate for key posts as President Donald Trump works to place more conservatives on the nation's federal courts.

White House press secretary Sean Spicer said that among the candidates are individuals previously named on Trump's list of 21 possible picks for Supreme Court justice. All nominees would require Senate confirmation.

The announcement came less than a month after Trump's pick for the Supreme Court, Neil Gorsuch, was confirmed, restoring the court's conservative tilt.

I don't remember reading a headline saying "Obama moves to get more liberals on federal bench". 

[To-Whose-Benefit?]

Getting SCOTUS straightened out is the most important work imaginable.

What good would even a staunch, straight up GOP Congress actually do us (assuming we could find such a mythical beast) when the lower Courts continue to rip completely unfounded, nonsensical decisions out of their noses which openly defy whatever laws they Feel differently about.

It's going to take a The Law Means What It Says no nonsense SCOTUS to put a stop to the lower Courts legislating from the bench.
