Summary:The post calls for Senator Chuck Grassley to unilaterally end the 'Blue Slip' custom in the U.S. Senate, arguing it is a 'hoax' and 'scam' that prevents the appointment of highly qualified Republican judges and U.S. Attorneys, especially in high-crime states.

- The 'Blue Slip' custom, described as ancient and possibly unconstitutional, prevents the President from appointing preferred candidates if a single Senator from the opposing party withholds consent.
- This 'Hoax' custom forces the appointment of either a Democrat or a 'weak and ineffective Republican'.
- The inability to appoint 'Great Judges or U.S. Attorneys' is particularly detrimental to states like California, New York, New Jersey, Illinois, and Virginia, which are characterized as having high levels of crime and corruption.
- Senator Grassley should break the 'Blue Slip' custom, citing instances where 'Crooked Joe Biden' and others have done so in the past.
- Democrats have previously disregarded this custom against Republicans, and it is time for Republicans to do the same.
- Grassley should act 'IMMEDIATELY' to prevent Democrats from viewing him and the Republican Party as weak and ineffective.
