Schumer said he was not intent on putting a permanent filibuster on Gorsuch.

In an interview on the Rachel Maddow Show, he stated his hesitancy to vote for a Supreme Court Justice at this time, with the FBI investigation of Russian influence and possible Trump's associates collusion. He said they should "delay it for a while"..."I'm not saying forever", he said.

It would serve the purpose of both Parties to get this story into an investigative Commission as soon as possible. The more information that comes out, the more harm will be done to the leadership of the Republican Party.

The FBI Director went down to the White House today. He was there for about an hour, according to reports. What did they discuss? As we know, Donald is not real keen on sitting for intelligence briefings - he much prefers to have "unregistered foreign agents" receive the information for him.

Someone will need to ask the Director of the FBI whether or not anyone was twisting his arm in any manner? This investigation is getting very serious.

(The GOP is a really great opposition Party but they suck at governing)
