Lou Dobbs just broke in with the report that Mike Pompeo now has 56 votes for confirmation, and has been confirmed by the Senate.
Gee Marie Harf seriously..they couldn’t find a decent looking hobo instead..they were THAT desperate they went with that loon
Sumer would look good in a pussy hat with those glasses on his nose.
It’s been more than fifteen minutes since the last vote
Harf has the poise and charm of a cnned ham.

Senate will not be in session later in week as they will be at their annual retreat in Philadelphia BSh-t
Sounds like... ‘recess appointments’
Hasn’t thought of that
What is going on is the fear of Spicer truth-telling and Trump calling people out biblically...Pubbies were too fearful in the past to do such things.
Trump and his team has no such fear. If not Spicer, then Conway...folks don’t want a bright light shone on them with negative words associated with in...this will work well and even get McConnell, McCain, and Graham in line.
I do believe the chair has the ability to set the length at the front of the vote.
This vote is essentially over though. All they need is a majority vote, and they have it.
I’m not sure why they are holding it open.
Is there a countdown clock on the screen.
C-Span used to show them sometimes.
Ok. Thank you. They better get a move on then!
Can someone post a link? I looked on youtube but did not find. Thanks in advance!!
You know it!
I’m with you....unbelievable. As much as we say that in any one day, I guess we’re going to have to get used to it as there’s no explanation for anything that goes on in the world today. Whether it’s the news itself or who is bringing it to us! I am long out of patience!!!!
I’m wondering if he is even ALL THERE. Every picture that he’s been in since then has him grinning like a Cheshire cat and for what? It’s a smug, meaningless smile...If it’s a habit, he needs to break it NOW!
Likely a soldier in the Hillary Mafia. Probably has Sid Blumenthal and Mike Morell on speed dial.
Democrats voting Aye:
Donnelly
Feinstein
Hassan
Heitkamp
Kaine
King
Klobuchar
Manchin
McCaskill
Reed
Schatz
Schumer
Shaheen
Warner
Whitehouse
Schumer is a huge surprise.
It’s 2017, not 1817. Seems like there could be, say, a few other ways for absentee Senators to cast their votes without having to physically show up. In fact, they could do most business from their home office. Of course then they’d have to hang with their constituents, instead of running off to Washington to get away from them.
Indeed Schumer is a big surprise. Feinstein also.

Just shows how clueless even FOX is, no clue what is going on in America.
