The confirmation hearings are scheduled (by Dick Durbin) for Feb 22/23.
After being voted out of committee on the 23rd, the full Senate vote will take place before March 1.
Good one. My positive attitude is hard pressed right now. I am hoping Karma had good reason to skip when it did and intends to give us a grand finale worthy of all we have suffered and then some.
Senators Durbin and Duckworth (D-IL) want to retain the Trump-appointed US attorney in Chicago, but a) they nominated him in the first place and b) he’s pursued a lot of corruption stuff that was getting neglected. Rather un-Trumpy.
I have wondered if the doj and fbi have text and phone transcripts of Members from 1/6. would be interesting to learn they have quietly told them to find other employment or face conspriacy charges.
