Senate postpones floor activity, but not Amy Coney Barrett confirmation hearings

Clearing the bar.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) announced Saturday that he is postponing all floor activity through Oct. 19. However, hearings will still continue in a hybrid fashion, including the confirmation hearings for President Trump's Supreme court nominee, Amy Coney Barrett, which are scheduled to begin on Oct. 12.

If SCOTUS can hear arguments by phone/teleconference then the Senate can do the hearings that way for a SCOTUS nominee

McConnell doesn't have enough Senators left on the Committee to move her nomination to the floor. He COULD have moved to remote voting, but he refused to do that. Now he doesn't have enough votes to pass the Resolution needed to approve remote voting.

Let’s vote her in !!!
Too bad we have the dimwit hacks Kagan and S for life

I think the Senate has rules requiring people to actually be present. Not sure, since I'm not in the Senate.

Pelican brief

Kamala says Trump appointed no black judges to the appeals or supreme court.

The sainted RBG hired only ONE BLACK LAW CLERK, in 40 years as an appeals court judge and supreme court justice, with 150+ law clerks.
