""The fact that she has now been lingering in this limbo for longer than the five previous attorney general nominees combined makes no sense."
Last Sunday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell told CNN he would not schedule a vote for Lynch until an otherwise bipartisan human trafficking bill -- stalled over an abortion provision opposed by most Democrats -- passes the chamber.
Democrats accuse Republicans of sneaking language into the human trafficking bill to prevent women from using restitution funds paid by perpetrators to get an abortion, although that provision was in the bill that passed the committee.
Until there's a vote on the trafficking bill, Lynch's nomination remains in limbo."
Republican governance...getting shit done. I honestly hate McConnell's condescending turtle looking dumb ass. WTF does an abortion provision have to do with confirming an AG? Can anyone on the right explain to me how this isn't the action of an obstructionist, dickhead whose idea of leading is stomping his feet like a child in a playground until he gets his way? I'm open to hearing how this is justified.
