Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) scheduled a vote for Thursday afternoon on a Democratic resolution warning Trump against handing over former diplomats.

The Senate will vote on the resolution around 1:45 p.m.on Thursday.

Democratic Sens. Robert Menendez (N.J.) and Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii), as well as Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), introduced the resolution warning the administration against agreeing to let the Russian government question former officials.

"One of the most stunning things about the summit was the president's openness to a request by President Putin to question former United States ambassador to Moscow Michael McFaul and other Americans," Schumer said earlier Thursday.

Is there anything they won't vote on a resolution for?

Geez.

"Senate to vote on resolution condemning the President for having 2 scoops of ice cream."

"Senate to vote on resolution telling Trump that they'll pass resolutions if he does something the don't like, so he better watch out."

I also see that proposal that Schumer wanted about Trump's interpreter to be questioned - went down in committee 11-6 along party lines.

Trump said the idea "was interesting" which, to me at least, is a polite way of telling somebody they're full of sh!t. Senator Schumer is the stereotypical whiny Jew and should be completely ignored.

Why legislate when you can just issue meaningless documents?

So I take it you are totally fine with Russia telling Meuller to frick off in regards to his utter worthless indictments of the 12 Russian military members?

The smell of hypocrisy is strong with that group. Trump administration & Russia bad...Obama administration & Russia good.

Which means they went like this:

"Should we hand over the diplomats to the Russians?"

"Well, I'll consider it. Ok, Not gonna do it. But if they ask, tell them I'm considering it."
