So...just thinking about all this stuff. We know Trump is gonna fire/replace all of these people. Sooner probably than later... - Turd Ferguson Nov 13, 18:45
Is this the same Congress that gets to ask him questions during confirmation hearings? -- nm - Mop🧹 Nov 13, 17:55 3
- Not exactly. This is a House committee. The Senate handles confirmation hearings, don't they? -- nm - ty97 Nov 13, 17:58 2
  - assuming there are hearings -- nm - mr mooch Nov 13, 18:00 1
    - Or a Senate. (NM) - Marlowe Nov 13, 18:22
Colour me shocked. -- nm - VMan Nov 13, 17:19
Let me guess, they’re not going to release it now because they can only issue reports on sitting members? -- nm - znufrii Nov 13, 17:14 9
- correct (but i'd subpoena it for his confirmation hearing) -- nm - mr mooch Nov 13, 17:16
- They were going to vote on Friday whether to release or not. They only have jurisdiction over sitting members, so there will be no vote. -- nm - ty97 Nov 13, 17:16 7
  - Of course. -- nm - znufrii Nov 13, 17:20
  - (That doesn't mean it may not leak) -- nm - ty97 Nov 13, 17:16 5
    - Yes. Leak it to 3 different news orgs tomorrow. -- nm - zunk takes things literally Nov 13, 18:37
    - Susan Wild is a Democrat on the committee and lost her election. They would have no authority over her in a couple months. -- nm - Dano Nov 13, 17:32 3
      - apparently if a majority of the committee votes to release it they can -- (link) - mr mooch Nov 13, 17:46 2
        
        It will make no difference. None -- nm* - Pippy Nov 13, 18:23 1
        
        It could give a few repub senators a reason to reject the nom. -- nm - zunk takes things literally Nov 13, 18:39
