Senator Roger Wicker issued the following statement.
Mississippians can take pride in an important moment in the Senate this past week. Judge Cory Wilson of Madison was confirmed to serve a lifetime appointment on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, which includes Mississippi. The Senate’s vote made him the 200th judge to be confirmed since President Donald Trump took office. I encouraged President Trump to nominate Wilson earlier this year and welcome his confirmation.
Judge Wilson, a Moss Point native and Ole Miss graduate, will join the growing number of conservative-minded judges serving on federal appeals courts. These are the highest courts in our nation under the Supreme Court, and they decide major cases on matters affecting all Americans, including life, health care, and religious liberty. Judge Wilson’s voice will be an important addition. He has earned a reputation in Mississippi as a fair and impartial judge committed to the Constitution and the rule of law. I believe he will make his mark on the judiciary in the years to come.

Congrats Judge. Do well in your new endeavor.
ahhhhhh yes, another lawyer who count make it in the legal practice, but was politically connected , has won the legal lottery. the ultimate political appointment. you are set for life baby. you will never even hear the first bit criticism about anything as everyone in the news media are scared shitless of federal judges.
Sorry, a comment about reconstruction isn't going to be approved on this one. There are several state flag posts that will allow you to refight the Civil War and its aftermath to your heart's content.

"another lawyer who count make it"
Did you mean "Can't make it"?
Youse need to proofread your stuff
Cory will do a fine job. We should all be proud of him!
Judge Wilson is an excellent judge and an even better person.
He is apparently a much better judge than Ozerden.
Not a single Democrat voted for him. Not one. Democrats have almost unanimously opposed every judicial appointment by President Trump. If Republicans hold the Senate and Biden wins the Presidency, then the Republicans should do likewise.
to 11:54....................''youse need''
did you mean ''you need''?
maybe you should proof read first.
to 9:13.............i guess next you gonna tell us water is wet. just what do you expect to happen in a senate judicial confirmation vote? thats why its called a politics.
It's wonderful to see great things happen to great people.
I really hate hearing the word "conservative" or "liberal" associated with any judge. The only word I want to hear is "impartial".
