Senate Republicans triggered the "nuclear option" to change their rules so they can speed up confirmation of Trump's nominees for key executive branch positions. The new rule allows the Senate to confirm an unlimited number of nominees en bloc, rather than process each one individually.

I think, with parental approval, show the kids in situ showing what’s left. Gun laws will change when someone gets an AR-15 into congress.
