Senator McConnell asked unanimous consent to allow committees to meet during today’s session of the Senate. Senator Durbin objected because of the decision last night by the President of the United States to terminate the Director of the FBI and the questions that it’s raised. Barring further action, committees have until 11:30am to meet.
(From what I seen happen was the Democrats left the Senate Room and Senator McConnell said they can't do business unless they have the votes to continue to do so, the Democrats are upset over what happened with Comey)

PING...
Time to change the rules.
L
Any excuse to not work.....................
The Democrats are upset that the sun came up this morning and Trump is still the President.
Schumer and all the democrats got up and walked out of the Chamber...without a unanimous vote of both Rep. and Dems. they cannot conduct the business of the People they represent...
This is what our Government has come to...I hope that when you people go to vote in 2018, you remember how low this government has gotten...and vote for a Republican that will bury the Democrats...
NO Democrat should be elected or re-elected this time or in the 2020 year either...WE the PEOPLE are at a breaking point right now...
YOU EITHER STAND FOR AMERICA OR YOU DON'T; YOUR DECISION!!!
This nonsense won’t stop until McConnell inflicts some real pain on the Dems.

Repubs should change the rules and continue as usual. The dems only obstruct so their absence would make things run smoother.
My sentiments exactly......
Mc C should start keeping them late in the evening and week ends.

Change the rules and extend the work week. DC is lovely in August. I’m sure the Dems won’t mind sticking around to do the people’s business they have delayed.

Time to change the rules, McConnell.
You don’t think they’d change em if the roles were reversed? They’d change in a NY second. Change the rules and make these insane communist traitors totally irrelevant and get on with the Peoples’ business.
Call for a unanimous voice vote - all those in favor - YEA opposed? . . .
The yea’s have it, the matter passed
CHANGE THE RULES - the DEMs just shut down the Gov’t
Most likely McConnell is in on this kabuki. You really think McConnell cares if Trump’s agenda is delayed?
NEW: @SenFeinstein says Dems will invoke two-hour rule to shut down Judiciary hearing this morning in response to Comey fallout
8:13 AM - 10 May 2017
AT THIS TIME, I would offer ALL our Veterans an apology, and honor all our men who sacrificed everything for the D’rats, the slimy media: America. If not for these brave men (and women) the persons embedded in the Hallowed Halls would have nothing, nor would the talking heads of the MFM
A sad situation.
