Democrat vows to block Trump's 'Treasury nominations' over Russia.....
washingtonexaminer ^ | 6/4/2018 | by Joseph Lawler

Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., pledged Monday to continue blocking President Trump's nominees to the Treasury Department in a bid to get documents related to Trump's dealings with Russia.....The Oregon Democrat and ranking member on the Finance Committee committed to holding up nominees..

On Monday, Wyden said he has placed a hold on Patelunas in order to gain documents from the Treasury relating to Trump's financial ties with Russia, and said conducting oversight is a "constitutional duty, not a resistance tactic."

Since early in Trump's tenure, Wyden has sought to use nominations as leverage over Treasury to get the documents he is seeking.

If RAT Wyden were the only member of the Senate, this might work. However...

Hay Mitch, where’ya at. I heard you on the radio the other day saying that getting President Trump’s nominees approved was very high on your priority list.

Prove it. Give the country some real statesmanship for a change.

On the other hand, if Wyden could play electric guitar, he'd be married to a supermodel!

These so called representatives are supposed to represent the people, not the party. Why is it necessary we have to remind them?

‘”Tell me this guy isn’t about the rattiest looking

Wyden has a twin brother in Connecticut. He’s also a Senator, Richard Blumenthal. They were both beaten by their “parents” with an ugly stick at birth!

Okay, Steven Mnuchin is the Secretary of the Treasury. The hold is currently on the lower positions.

The entire cabinet is full, but some should be replaced like Sessions.

Isabel Patelunas is a woman. Why are Senate Democrat men bullying Republican women? Is it because the women need to be taught a lesson and put back in their place?

Democrat Senator Ron Wyden admits it is not because of her merits. He wants to hold her nomination hostage due to an unrelated matter. He doesn’t care if it hurts her or the country.

Donald Trump wants more women in management positions. Senate Democrats have delayed all women nominations by rejecting unanimous consent and forcing 30 hours of debate. Now, it seems that the tactic is it to put a hold on all nominations that would elevate women into powerful positions.

23 Senate Democrats are up for reelection this year. How many of them would deny another woman to the Trump Administration?

While you’re at it, Senator, maybe you can get the Russians to return the uranium the Clintons sold to them.
