Senate Democrats closed down the chamber floor Wednesday to protest the confirmation hearings of Judge Brett Kavanaugh.
The hearings were able to continue, but only after the GOP agreed to quit floor business for the rest of the day.
Under Senate rules, committees need consent from both sides of the aisle to meet into the afternoon when the floor is also in session. Consent is almost always granted...

For tomorrow: lather, rinse, repeat
If I were in charge of the hearings, I would have assembled an experienced team to brainstorm the possible ways the Democrats might disrupt the hearings so I would have counter-measures ready to quickly implement.
But I’m not a Republican politician.
Kyl was sworn in today. McConnell has the votes and should just end this circus now. Enough.
Yep, most probably so.
Chuckie is showing the country what a small vindictive person he is.
Hard to sell an "extremist" narrative when Kavanaugh has bipartisan support but only partisan opposition.
Open question to all more moderate or undecided voters:
Do any of the Democrat and protesters histrionics, make any of you more likely to support Democrats? Have any of you been convinced that Kavanaugh is a monster, a clear and present danger who will impale women on coat hangers?
Does Chuck Schumer pulling this manuver make you more likely to want him to be Senate majority leader? Does any of this give you great confidence if Democrats were again running Congress?
Fox News says the hearings are continuing.
Chuckie Schumer throwing a kicking and screaming tantrum like a three-year old.
To us, yes. To his people, he is standing up to white supreamicist nazi homophobes. They think hes great. They are fools, but they get to vote too.

Already being done. Both sides do this.
Yep, the hearing is continuing but Chuckie and the RATs shut down the business on the Senate floor.
I agree with you, 100%!!! Mitch McConnell should shut down this wasteful questioning BS and go right onto the Senate floor for an up or down vote immediately.
Perhaps with an announcer voiceover....
Democrats will do anything to prevent a free and fair vote.
.
Oh, I believe the 'rats do this, but judging on their past behavior, it appears the Pubs do not.
Support Free Republic, Folks!
This is really it right here. Their political platform is only to resist Trump and nothing more.
Can you imagine Feinstein actually caring about a woman's right to kill her baby? I'm sure she doesn't care much at all. It's all for show for their sick constituents.
Might be a good time to expose Schumer's connections with Russian govt officials who populate his district-----
and how Russian govt officials may have facilitated Schumer's election......
and the dollar amount Russians donated to his campaign.
AND THIS----SEN SCHUMER MUST HAVE SPRUNG INTO ACTION TO DEFEND TAXPAYERS BEING RIPPED OFF BY HIS RUSSIAN CONSTITUENTS. RIGHT?
REFERENCE---A Medicaid Fraud Ring In Brooklyn by Russian Refugee Constituents of Sen Charles Schumer (Dem-NY)
By Julia Ioffe, NY Magazine, published March 2, 2012
In March 2012, thirty-six Russians---Soviet immigrants----were arrested in Brooklyn, New York for plotting to bilk US health-insurance companies out of a quarter of a billion tax dollars.
The plot, according to the NY Times, involved ten doctors, nine clinics, and a hundred and five corporations: The ring falsified official US govt documennts demanding tax dollars----reimbursements for a mountain of excessive and unnecessary medical treatments that were never done.
The Russian fraudsters were so brazen that they already had in-place three separate billing-processing companies just to handle the paperwork.....to get the tax dollars into their greedy hands faster.

=====================================================
NOTES---Whats remarkable here is just how unremarkable the story is, coming, as it does, out of Sen Schumer's district-----the Russia-centric Brighton Beach, Brooklyn. Ff\amous for its Russian delicacies, entertainment, a population of highly-inflected Russian dialects, but mostly for its concentration of insurance fraud. The NY Times reports, Brighton Beach has one of the highest rates of health care fraud in the nation, according to federal statistics.
An analysis from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (agency regulates those two programs), shows that more health care providers in the Brighton Beach ZIP code are currently barred from the programs for malfeasance than in almost any other ZIP code in the United States.
===========================================
SENATOR SCHUMER IS PUSHING THE TRUMP/RUSSIAN COLLUSION
Prior to his taking the US Senate seat, Sen Schumer represented:
<><> the Ninth Congressional District in Brooklyn and Queens for eighteen years.
<><> earlier Schumer represented the Forty-Fifth Assembly District in Brooklyn for six years.
