Blocking the nomination of Merrick Garland to the Supreme Court to get us Neil Gorsuch was a super thing for McConnell to do. He caught flak 24/7 from the democrat media/entertainment/propaganda complex, but despite that he never wavered in his resolve.
Perfect!
“The Senate Democrats, Wyden in particular are still holding on to the Russia narrative as a means to stall the nomination process”
The Rats know damn well it’s BS. The idiot base believe it but the leaderships knows.
Is it good news?
I though McConnell was keeping the Senate in session to prevent Trump form making any recess appointments.
So, if we could get Rosenstein to recuse, what about the #3 at DOJ. I thought that post was open.
Your choice of a Chinese beer is interesting, given his wife’s family and their ties to China.
A drawback, no recess appointments... “Team Mitch” wants to prevent that...

First time I’ve agreed with Mitchell in a long time.
“So, if we could get Rosenstein to recuse”
Ha good one. Rats never recuse Rats never resign. The leader of the coup stays until Trump fires him. Trump should fire him and appoint a whit hat interim who will
hold Mueller and his Rat squad accountable IMHO.
Good
The President has not nominated anyone for the Associate Attorney General job (#3 at DOJ). Jesse Panuccio, an outsider to the DOJ from Florida, is Acting Associate Attorney General.
Did someone locate their cajones?

“I hope it’s not an excuse to ram through amnesty at a midnight hour.”
Well, if that’s his game plan, it will be time “for the rubber to hit the road with Trump” and his previous statements that he would not sign a turd like the one that’s being “laid” in the House as this is being written.
Didn’t McConell also shut the door on Trump makng recess appointments? Or was that something only Demonrat presidents could do?
With so many more sitting Democrat Senators defending their seats this year, it will hit them a lot harder to not be able to campaign at home, and might even distract time from fundraising!
If 51 is needed for a senate quorum, look for all democrats to leave. McCain is dead/dying/unconscious. He would not come snyway, just to spite trump.
“Watch the Dems scream that they can’t campaign!”
And neither can the republicans, and Trump can’t do recess appointments.
No recess, no recess appointments.
The power to compel absent Senators to attend is unlimited. Congressmen know that.
