Overview
- Demand Justice reviewed Questions for the Record for 27 Trump judicial nominees and found none affirmatively said Joe Biden won the 2020 election.
- Sixteen nominees described Biden as having "served" as president, and 21 labeled the Jan. 6 Capitol attack a political issue, often using nearly identical phrasing.
- The group says the uniform evasions amount to a political loyalty test and highlighted the pattern in media appearances, including on MSNBC.
- Fifteen Democratic senators voted to confirm at least one nominee identified in the report, prompting new pressure efforts from the group.
- The analysis focuses on written answers submitted after hearings and cites repeated, verbatim language as evidence of coordinated, nonresponsive replies.
