"They rolled the dice that a Democrat could replace them, and now that he won't, they're changing their plans to keep a Republican from doing it," McConnell said on the Senate floor.
"This sort of partisan behavior undermines the integrity of the judiciary. It exposes bold Democratic blue where there should only be black robes," McConnell warned.
"The incoming administration would be wise to explore all available recusal options with these judges, because it's clear now that they have a political finger on the scale," he said.
McConnell himself reportedly "initiated outreach in an effort to heighten awareness among judges... that making the change now would be advantageous."
