IDBillzFan Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 Oh, no! CNN is wondering: Whither Melania? She's Not Been Seen For 12 Days!!! The last line below really dives into the important details. Quote Despite this, a spokeswoman for the first lady knocked down recent reports that the Melania Trump would not be moving to Washington at all. "That report is not true," the spokeswoman said. Without a full-time first lady, the typical duties of that part of the White House machine are at a veritable standstill. Not only has Melania Trump not hired a staff, she hasn't formally announced a platform of official causes, a social schedule of events, nor her Washington calendar. On Monday night, paparazzi caught the first lady and Barron "running errands" in New York City. Melania Trump, in a cream-colored coat and signature five-inch high heels, and Barron, were ferried around Manhattan by a Secret Service detail.

B-Man Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 (edited) Scott Pruitt, Trump’s E.P.A. Pick, Is Approved by Senate Committee. Quote A day after Democrats on the Senate environment committee boycotted a planned vote on Mr. Pruitt’s nomination, the panel’s Republicans reconvened on Thursday and temporarily suspended the committee’s rules, which require the presence of at least two Democrats to hold votes, and approved Mr. Pruitt. The Democrats’ boycott and the Republican response followed the same pattern that played out this week on the Senate Finance Committee, as Democrats sought to block action on the nominations of Representative Tom Price of Georgia to head the Department of Health and Human Services, and of the financier Steven T. Mnuchin to lead the Treasury Department. Tip for Democrat Senators: When you’ve made Orrin Hatch willing to suspend his beloved rules, you might need to rethink a few things. Senator Schumer says if both Pence & Sessions have to push DeVos over the line, WH will in effect 'get 2 deciding votes' on a member of Cabinet. You mean the way the Constitution directs ? Chuck is one of the most disingenuous people on the planet. . Edited February 2, 2017 by B-Man

B-Man Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 (edited) I’M JUST WILD ABOUT HARRY: Senate advances DeVos’s nomination, setting her up for final vote. Quote Senators voted 52-48 to advance DeVos’s nomination. No Democrats voted yes. The vote, which came during a rare Friday session, sets up lawmakers to take a final vote early next week. Vice President Pence is expected to have to break a 50-50 tie, the first time a vice president will cast the deciding vote on a Cabinet nomination. Senate rules require an extra 30 hours of debate before senators can confirm DeVos. If Democrats refuse to yield back time and drag out the procedural clock, they could push a final vote until Tuesday. Republicans have no room for error to clear DeVos, with GOP Sens. Susan Collins (Maine) and Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) saying they’ll vote against her. If it weren’t for Harry Reid and his “nuclear option,” Trump would be shopping for a new Education nominee right now. Instead, it looks likely the DeVos may just squeak through. Thanks, Harry! https://pjmedia.com/instapundit/256311/ Edited February 3, 2017 by B-Man
