"Judge Wynn's brazenly partisan decision to rescind his retirement is an unprecedented move that demonstrates some judges are nothing more than politicians in robes," Tillis said.
"Tillis warned the Judiciary Committee in November that if they approved Park's nomination there would be consequences and he would vote to approve any nominee Trump put forward in the future."
"But before Park made it to the Senate floor for a vote, Democrats and Republicans struck a late-night deal to throw out four appellate nominations from Biden if Republicans would stop making the process of approving other judicial nominees difficult for Democrats."
"But that's the thing about lifetime appointment, at the end of the day, it's really the judge's - and only the judge's - call."
