The Democrat’s Fantasy of Blocking Sessions for Attorney General Just Got Destroyed
The Democrat’s longshot bid to block Jeff Sessions as Attorney General just got completely destroyed as Democrat Senator Joe Manchin announced he will be BACKING the Sessions pick.
The Hill Reports
Sen. Jeff Sessions‘s (R-Ala.) bid to become the next attorney general has the backing of a Democratic senator.
Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) says he’s supporting President-elect Donald Trump‘s pick of Sessions, journalist Salena Zito tweeted Friday afternoon.

Manchin’s support is a big boost to Sessions’s chances. He needs a simple majority in the Senate to be confirmed, and the GOP is expected to control 52 seats in the chamber after next month’s Louisiana runoff elections.
Democratic Sens. Dianne Feinstein (Calif.), Chris Coons (Del.), Patrick Leahy (Vt.), Sheldon Whitehouse (R.I.) and Richard Blumenthal(Conn.), all Judiciary Committee members, pledged to give Sessions a fair but thorough vetting process.

Last year the Dems changed the votes needed from 60 to 51 ,we have that vote covered without one vote from the Dems but we welcome any votes from the other branch , I am sure he will bring many votes over to get things done for all Americans
It is scary to have the Indian squaw opposing President Trump and his nominees. NOT!
MRC please stop saying that! About Warren! I am for Trump too but stop saying that
Warren lied about being native American and benefited from the lie. Calling out a LIAR is sometimes very necessary–especially when the LIAR is caught kissing the arise of Communist puppeteer Soros.
