Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) on Dec. 22 accused the media of being so “obsessed” with the impeachment of President Donald Trump that it hasn’t highlighted the confirmation of 13 of the president’s conservative judges.

Rubio made the remarks on Twitter after Senators confirmed 13 of Trump’s judicial nominees last week, bringing to 102 the number of federal judges approved this year—more than twice the annual average over the past three decades.
