Senate Democrats are stalling nominations? REALLY?

Al Ritter


I know it’s a big shocker but Alex Padilla and the recently disgraced Adam Schiff have so far successfully dragged their feet to bog down the proceedings of the US Senate Judiciary Committee on the US Attorney General’s position.

It would appear as though any member can postpone the appointment hearings at any time. Dragging out the proceedings for Pam Bondi’s nomination is a disgrace, and so far Grassley and Senate Majority Leader John Thune have allowed this behavior to continue.

Now there are 11 members of the Majority party and 9 in the Minority party plus one Chairman Chuck Grassley and the ranking member Dick Durbin.

Senate Minority leader Chuck Schumer has openly said that he will do everything in his power to either outright deny every one of Trump’s nominees or drag out their final appointments, regardless of their qualifications.

Their smear tactics have already cost one nomination, and almost a second one, all the time claiming the moral high ground. Character assassination seems to be the "soup of the day" of the Democratic Party.

Each Presidential nominee faces committee hearings from their respective areas such as AG position is heard by the Judicial Committee, Commerce Secretary’s appointment hearing is done by the Commerce Committee and so on.

The individual committee members from their respective parties report to their members and a final vote is done on the full floor of the Senate with the Vice President casting the deciding vote if equally divided.

These continual postponements must stop, Grassley must get control of this committee!

I've never seen so many spoiled children in adult bodies before in my life, it's as if they didn't learn a thing on Nov 5th

Would anyone on the right be surprised? Just revisit trump’s first term. 2 impeachments, one special counsel, Warren buffet pelosi, and the ass sniffing media all trying desperately to usurp Trump at every move. Different ballgame today

They need to go after Schiff and research where he lives and destroy him.

That little weasel Schiff should be banned from ALL committees and have his security clearance revoked

Nothing new here for the "uniparty" . They can attempt to"stall" all they want, but they are only postponing the inevitable, they need to get their collective heads out of their asses , and get used to the FACT, there is a "new set of sheriffs" in town, and their taxpayer-money, and time wasting, "business as usual", as well as the "status-quo" are going to be altered for AMERICAN PEOPLE , so we can get OUR COUNTRY BACK from these communist-loving SCUMBAGS.

Frankly I don't understand why there are any Democrats on the committee at all, they have already made up their minds to vote against her before the first questions

They keep asking her questions about being unbiased when all of Biden's picks were biased
