Sessions's nomination clears key Senate hurdle
By Jordain Carney - 02/07/17 12:53 PM EST

Sen. Jeff Sessions's nomination to be attorney general overcame a key hurdle on Tuesday, paving the way for the Senate to confirm the Alabama Republican this week.

Senators voted 52-47 to move forward with Sessions's nomination. Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) was the only Democratic senator to support him.

Absent a deal to yield back debate time, a final vote on Sessions's nomination could occur as late as Wednesday evening.

Great news!  Once he's nominated as well as Gorsuch, it's then time to start draining that swamp!

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
