In 2017 Sen Grassly (R) dumped the "blue slip" tradition. Both Ds and Rs have been dropping rules that require cooperation (60 votes to end filibuster) for 15 years. McConnell not holding a hearing for nominated Garland ("we need wait for the next election in 10 months" - in 2016), then rushing Comet-Barret hearing n vote (a mere 2 months before 2020 election), was dishonest at best; political chicanery.

Behind closed doors the Republican senators skipped the 2 debate sessions and then showed up for role call to try to disrupt it. We are doing very good right now. There are no rules to the Republicans - they can deny Obama a supreme court pick because it's the last year of his term and then rush through Trumps pick with even less time on his last term than Obama had. It's over for them - they broke every rule and now I support Dems doing the same - except they aren't - like I said up top the Reps skipped out on both debate sessions.

Well what did you expect Dick doesn't represent Illinois, he only represents Chicago really. How did you think he got elected? Chicago runs the state, what they say goes for the whole state. You can see this in quite a few states where pretty much a single metropolitan area runs their state defacto, at the expense of the whole states chagrin. It's the tyranny of the slim majority, because they represent a larger share of the population in a given state, their area gets overrepresented while the rest of the state gets ignored, those cities priorities which are different from the rest of the state takes precedence over the remaining state.

I believe he has been in Washington DC for about 41 years. (1982 - present) Durbin is a lawyer and politician, the senior US senator (Democrat) Illinois. Since 1997. In his fifth (6 year) Senate term and has served as the Senate Democratic whip since 2005 and as the Senate majority whip since 2021 Earlier he was a 7 (2 year) term for Rep in Congress. Which he won by 1,400-votes due to gerrymandering district lines. He said he would send "a message to Washington and to President Reagan that our economic policies are not working."

In 2017 Sen Grassly (R) dumped the "blue slip" tradition. Both Ds and Rs have been dropping rules that require cooperation (60 votes to end filibuster) for 15 years. McConnell not holding a hearing for nominated Garland ("we need wait for the next election in 10 months" - in 2016), then rushing Comet-Barret hearing n vote (a mere 2 months before 2020 election), was dishonest at best; political chicanery.

Or maybe if the Republicans would get off their lazy ass and come to these hearings in this committee that they find to be so important, they would’ve had their voice heard. Let’s say you were a teacher, and you had a student who refused to show up to class to learn the content, but when they came on the day of the test they claimed that the class shouldn’t take it because they didn’t know anything about topic. Would you say “Okay class forget the test, we’re gonna teach the same thing we already taught again because this guy wasn’t here,” or are you going to say, “Sucks to be you,” and make them take the test anyways. This is what the Republicans did. Like a teacher with lesson plans, the committee has a very strict schedule of things it needs to do on any given day. If the Republicans want to act like the stuck up idiots they are and boycott their chance to speak, they can do that, but just like in a classroom, everyone else is going to move on with or without them.

We, the people, can perform that task easily. If you liked the person, let them go home to their families.If they were a poor politician, then they can leave. The main issue is that these goobers think that it is okay to stop doing their job for an entire year, just to campaign that they need to keep that job. At a minimum, that is a 16.6% loss (1year campaign/6year term for senators) of political work to help the people. Not to mention all the vacation time, holiday, and when things get real easy government shutdowns. It's supposed to be 3 branches of government in our capitol, not 3 rings of clowns in a circus tent.

Why do you let him continue to be part of the committee? Refuse to participate in it until he’s removed or steps down! Refuse to allow a vote on ANYthing further until he is removed or steps down.

Exactly, It's a Hollywood Soap Opera Sitcom Skit. All the people in this room answer to the same person, their only difference is that they are Dems and they are Reps both making sure all money making angles for the ...gov are covered. With what all these clowns are getting paid, this has to be the most expensive soap opera ever filmed. If the bad guys don't get fired, then the good guys should be for not doing their job.

In 2017 Sen Grassly (R) dumped the "blue slip" tradition. Both Ds and Rs have been dropping rules that require cooperation (60 votes to end filibuster) for 15 years. McConnell not holding a hearing for nominated Garland ("we need wait for the next election in 10 months" - in 2016), then rushing Comet-Barret hearing n vote (a mere 2 months before 2020 election), was dishonest at best; political chicanery.
