With over 150 Trump nominees in limbo, Republicans may cancel recess, rewrite Senate rules, or push grueling floor sessions to break the Democrat blockade.​

Senate Republicans were back at it this morning, grinding away at the massive backlog of White House nominations awaiting their approval — and facing the most obstinate Democrat resistance in modern nomination history. If it continues much longer, the majority will face a choice — and the Senate, a change in the rules.

Senators worked until 10 p.m. Thursday night, were back at it at 11 a.m. Friday, had multiple votes ready to proceed, but still had over 150 to go. Friday was also supposed to be the start of a planned recess. But as the bombastic Mike Davis, the Article III Project founder and former chief counsel for nominations to Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), told me Thursday afternoon: “Recess is for children.”

They should recess so that Trump can pull out the ‘recess appointment pen’ and place all 150+ in their jobs next week.
