Senate's Acquittal No Acquittal at All, Dems Say, Warning of More Trump Abuses

Mattis, Kelly Confirmed as Fight Over Trump Cabinet Heats Up
“I think we ought to be prepared to push back and push back hard to confirm more nominees,” he said. “And in the end, it’s really just a question of fair play. We confirmed seven Obama nominees on Jan. 20, 2009, and this just strikes me as having all the attributes of a sore loser.”
Sessions’ Anti-Marijuana Stance Draws Fire by Fellow Republicans
"I’m cautiously optimistic that it’s not going to change," said Robert Capecchi, director of federal policies at the Marijuana Policy Project, after a lobbying visit to Sessions’s Senate office.
