It’s been reported that the new, larger Republican Senate majority is going to exercise its power and downsize the Senate Judiciary Committee. It’s a brilliant plan for two different reasons.
The first reason is that fewer Democrat senators will have the opportunity to showboat and eat up precious time with the sort of antics they displayed in the confirmation hearings for Justice Kavanaugh. Confirmation of more federal judges at the district court and appeals court levels is the most important priority for Senate Republicans, and this proposal would streamline and therefore speed that process.
But the second reason is delicious, because thanks to longstanding Senate tradition, the member who would lose a committee seat first would be the senator with the lowest seniority. And that would be Senator Kamala Harris of California, who has held office only since 2016. Not only is she transparently running for the 2020 presidential nod, she is a shameless demagogue.

My Take - Well, the left is frothing at the mouth over the potential loss of Kamala Harris on that committee claiming ......wellll.....the usual racial, feminist, identity politics clabber. But that's the Democrats problem. They're the ones who will decide, not the Republicans. The Democrats can save her, if one of the senior Democrats vacates his seat on that committee to appease the leftist loons in their party. Will that happen? Who knows now!
In days gone by that wouldn't ever happen, but the party is becoming so politically correct with the identity politics that permeates the party the old white members, who unleashed these intimidating leftists loons on Republicans, conservatives and Christians, are now finding they can become targets. I think they're now afraid of their own trolls, thugs and loons, because they've now taken ideological control of the party.
