“Earlier this month, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) one of Congresss most progressive legislators called on President-elect Trump to rescind his decision to nomination”
President Trumps response — Eat $hit!!!
According to “the” Harry Reid, the Senate only needs 51 votes for Senate approval of executive and judicial nominees.
Thanks Harry!!!
Ain’t Karma a MFer!!!
A few of the slower-headed Pubbies like Goober Graham don’t seem to get it, but the fact is the filibuster is DEAD!
Harry Reid killed it. It is blatantly obvious now that had the Dems gotten a majority they’d be nuke optioning SCOTUS nominees.
It is surely dead the next time Dems have the Senate. If the Republicans don’t realize this and act accordingly they’ll have absolute hell to pay with the voters.
Or Holder, representing “his people?”
“Well, you should have won the election” - Obama
Please do it Juan
Mike Pence will be the 51st Vote
Grassley should tell the Dems to submit affidavits from anyone they please. If he finds them to contain relevant information, he’ll invite the person to testify. But he should not allow a circus of character assassination under the guise of hearings.
Whether you commie 'RATS like it or not, we are going to make America a nation of laws again. If you don't like that, I suggest you "move to Canada".
Never mind. The gang of eight are doing this to impress their lefty friends inside the bubble.
You can never rely on Susan Collins as well as Lindsey.
Red, don’t be a concern troll. Suck it up.
Not just McCain. The Congress is filled with RINOs. Our majority in Congress is quite shaky.
We don’t mind if they ride the bus, but they have to get in the back. Hey Dims, you don’t like it, go out and win an election.
Of course they don’t want Sessions. They’d like another corrupt non-white.
They are worse than the snot nose snowflakes still protesting the election.
I personally am enjoying the implosion....
Nope, not sick of winning yet.
"Earlier this month, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) one of Congresss most progressive legislators called on President-elect Trump to rescind his decision to nomination"
Who could POSSIBLY ask for better endorsements???
“The greatest happiness is to scatter your enemy, to drive him before you, to see his cities reduced to ashes, to see those who love him shrouded in tears, and to gather into your bosom his wives and daughters.” If only the Republicans would treat the Democrats like this.
Simply promise the Dems that the precedent set by Biden, Kennedy, Schumer and Reid will be continued.
I think all Republicans support Sessions and Dem. Joe Manchin has announced his support. That would be 53 if the Republican wins the Louisiana senate runoff December 10th.
The Dims might create a lot of bad blood with little benefit to come from their efforts to smear Sessions.
There was non. SESSIONS voted to confirm. There is a tradition of giving the president a good amount of leeway in cabinet appointments, as they are “his people.” Less is given in judicial appointments, as they are independent and in for life. However, we know how the rats feel about tradition.
GOP is in charge now, 52-48, and can steamroll the Dems. Sucks to be them.
