This can't be stressed enough. The process needs to be changed. The people express their will by electing the President. Irrespective of party, the President should get votes on all of his appointments within 3 months of their appointments.
The Senate loathes their responsibility for confirming clowns into positions of power.

Didn't Alito as a lower level judge uphold the statute?
No.
Alito was not a judge - he was an attorney in the Office of Legal Counsel when he authored an opinion on the meaning of the statute appointing an "interim" U.S. Attorney.
That applies to Halligan's appointment in the ED of Virginia.
Haba was supposedly "acting" U.S. Attorney through the Federal Vacancies Reform Act.
Thee are two different statutes and are not related

But the law states that the judicial district "may appoint " an interim US attorney. It doesn't say "it shall" appoint an interim US attorney.
Big difference.
Big difference.
