Democrats also intend to hold two press conferences to push back on Barrett’s confirmation ? one on the Capitol steps and one on the Supreme Court steps. They will go to one or both of these pressers during the committee vote, according to the Democratic aide.

The offices of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (N.Y.) and committee ranking member Dianne Feinstein (Calif.) declined to comment.

It's going through and there isn't anything they can do.

So they are just speculating on a vote against ACA, correct? Is there a case?

And yet ACB will still be voted out of committee and onto the Supreme Court next week.

Seems like it would be easy to say that you can’t use your office for activism, and then take the photos down.

The Republicans should replace their photos with the photos from Hunter’s laptop.

They have to do something insane to make it up to their base for Feinstein's brief lapse into civility.
