Dems are still trying to derail the Barrett nomination

They are trying to figure out how they make this Joe Biden shite go away that all of them are tied up in. Lindsey Graham probably called the meeting and he and Mitt are doing all they can to bury this shite through some BS senate investigation!

Just whiny arse Democrats acting like children regarding Barrett's nomination.

The Senate went into a rare but brief closed session Friday, as Democrats sought to delay the nomination of Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court.
“I believe the Senate majority is on the precipice of making a colossal and historic mistake by rushing this nomination through the Senate only eight days before a national election,” said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. “Before we go any further, we should shut off the cameras, close the Senate and talk face-to-face about what this might mean for the country.”
The Senate needed to take a roll call vote to move out of the closed-door session, though the vote was not be public. Senators were in the private session for about 20 minutes.
The Democrats' move is the latest act of protest in their opposition to Barrett’s confirmation. Democrats also boycotted a Senate Judiciary Committee vote on Thursday to advance her nomination to the floor and have forced a series of procedural votes throughout the week. But Democrats do not have the procedural tools to stop the nomination altogether from going forward.
Closing the Senate, however, has not occurred in a decade.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is planning to advance Barrett’s nomination to the floor Friday, putting her on track for a final confirmation vote Monday.
Barrett is expected to receive broad support from Senate Republicans and no support from Democrats. Democrats have accused Republicans of hypocrisy for trying to confirm Barrett eight days before the election, after blocking former President Barack Obama’s Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland in 2016. But Republicans argue that the situation in 2016 was different because the White House and the Senate were controlled by different parties.
If confirmed, Barrett would replace the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who passed away Sept. 18.

Former Hunter Biden business associate Tony Bobulinski is going to turn over his electronic devices and business records to the FBI and appear Friday before two Senate committees investigating accusations centered on content from a laptop linked to Hunter. I assume that these would be closed door sessions.
