court of appeals. and par is in the sixth circuit, a favorite of mitch mcconnell s. i m sure that gives a little bit of a leg up. he was appellate judge confirmed in the trump presidency. so who knows what other names could emerge. there s been discussion about senator mike lee. but those are the the first five i mentioned are generally the ones we ve been looking at. but we ll have to wait and see until the president makes his announcement in coming weeks. judge straws up in minnesota. justice willett, now judge willett in texas. there are a lot of great new judges on the federal court. how important is it that there be a record? there are federal court opinions about federal law and federal jurisdictional issues, especially the administrative state. how much does that matter to the president, more importantly dan mcgahn and the white house counsel s office?
