the Senate adjourn until the next pro forma session: Monday, February
15, at 11 a.m.; Thursday, February 18, at 9 a.m.; I further ask that
when the Senate adjourns on Thursday, February 18, it next convene at 3

If Mc Connell trusts Obama on this he is far stupider than I thought. He better get back to DC before midnight to ensure that Obama can’t sneak one in.
Also, I just had a thought. What if Obama nominates himself and turns the White House over to Joe. He might be too lazy for the job but everyone knows he would be a consistent progressive forever, right?

Yes he can. The Senate decides if they are in recess and for how long.

If the republican had any brains they would declare Senate in session and rotate one Senator to be on the Hill every day. Trade off every few days.
Prevent Zer0 from any tricks.

Oh, that’s right. We’re talking republican, McConnell, ba!!s, brains. Never mind.

Not sure if it’s true or not, but I saw a letter from Alan Grayson to Obama saying he should appoint Elizabeth Warren to SCOTUS. Doubt Obama would do that - he probably is waiting for Biden to coming riding in to save the party with Lizzie as his VP.

Just like Lucy, holding the football for Charlie Brown.

It will have to be resolved by the Supreme court with obamas pick not recusing. There will be violence in the streets. I’ll bet on it.
