BREAKING: Senate Leader John Thune announces he will APPROVE Trump judicial nominees and HOLD the Senate past its normal schedule to get it done

"A NUMBER of judicial nominations that we want to get, judges CONFIRMED here in the Senate."

"We're gonna make the most of the time that we've got. Our conference is committed to being here to do WHATEVER IT TAKES to get as much done as we can across the finish line!"

"We have a number of executive branch nominations that we want to get through the process as well. And then we've got to fund the government."

"And that means EXTENDING the calendar here, the number of days we're here, the number of hours we're here, the number of votes we may end up taking. But we are going to finish this legislative session strong."

Approve them all and show the people! Also hold the Senate in town to pass common sense LEGISLATION as well. We still have the majority for 2 more months

NO VACANCIES LEFT FOR DEMS.
