No. You just keep your information to yourself so you can insult freepers who only know what was said on this thread.

Respectfully...he said that he ‘will not be in D.C. for the vote on Saturday” He informed leadership earlier.

Seems like a reasonable guy

Maybe it is a gambit to speed up the vote?

McConnell will work something out - he may be a Turtle on Cocaine, but he’s pretty sharp when he wants to be.

There are many people in the military who are doing their duty Saturday somewhere they would rather not be.
Do your duty to the Constitution.
And to the people who elected you.

The date of a wedding can be changed. This date of your duty to America will not be changed.

Not even the date, my good FRiend. If the wedding were delayed until AFTER the vote and flight, absolutely everyone would understand.

She's getting married so she needs to be there...you only need to be there for part of it...walking her down the aisle and paying the bill. Other than that, you need to be in DC ensuring your vote to save the country is recorded.

Here’s an article link & of course, they’re making it as dramatic as possible:

Sen. Steve Daines will be at daughter’s wedding in Montana — Kavanaugh vote or no
https://billingsgazette.com/news/government-and-politics/sen-steve-daines-will-be-at-daughter-s-wedding-in/article_eb0ccb27-ac37-5b72-93b5-93f69e76dbdf.html

Here is what Daines said & comments on Kav - sounds like he’s got a plan & not going to sabotage Kav:

Daines told The Associated Press Thursday in a statement that two things are going to happen this weekend: There’s going to be a new Supreme Court justice and Daines is going to walk his daughter down the aisle.

Daines has supported Kavanaugh throughout a confirmation process that’s turned increasingly bitter following sexual assault and misconduct allegations against the nominee.

The senator’s spokeswoman, Katie Schoettler, says Daines read the FBI report on the allegations and saw no evidence corroborating claims made by Christine Blasey Ford and two other women.

She says Daines believes it’s time the confirmation moves forward.

He’s got his schedule worked out already. Fake news leading with misleading headlines to get the clicks.

I would imagine many a serviceman overseas has missed out on weddings, or the birth of his own child. When you are in service to your country you have a duty to do what must be done.

“Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R., Ky.) said the Senate would convene on Friday at 9:30 a.m. That means the Senate can vote on cloture around 10:30 a.m. on Friday, since the chamber’s rules mean it can vote on the nomination an hour after convening.”
