From Durbin on Barrett confirmation: “We can’t stop the outcome”
“We can slow it down, perhaps a matter of hours, maybe days at the most, but we can't stop the outcome. What we should do is to address this now respectfully,” Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) said.
Why? Why must this happen respectfully? If they can't stop it, why not disrupt? Make a statement and leave the committee? Leave the senate and stand outside? Ask their colleagues in Congress to protest?
