“But the Senate having failed to do its proper constitutionally mandated job of advice and consent,


We need to call out factual errors such as this.

As crazy as the process became, the Senate did provide the advice and consent. They gathered information and then took votes. What exactly did they do, that somehow violates the constitutional obligation to provide advice and consent?

So he’s full of it on this issue. There is no “constitutional violation’ of how this came about. At the end of the whole absurd process, the Senate through their normal procedures, got to the point of voting on the nomination. What the heck is his problem?

The Contitution is an easy document to read and understand. What section does he believe empowers the House to police the Senate?

“...advice and consent?.”

Is it advice or advise? I’ve seen both being used and even definitions of both spellings that mean the same thing.
