Today, I watched about 40 min of video of them trying to get all of these promotions taken care of, and I was incandescent after only 40 minutes of it and couldn't watch the rest. And Sen. Cory Booker, as the Pres of the Senate, how he was able to reign in his visible fury and do the job of presiding over the aborted appointments/promotions, was a testament to us all. We need to make sure that he (Sen Booker) stays in the Senate for as long as we can!!
40’s age dad in ER talking to reception nurse. She’s explaining his daughter is in surgery following car accident on way home from HS football game. MD comes rushing in asking reception nurse if parent of the girl has arrived yet. Dad is identified and MD explains to him he must sign papers so MD’s can abort fetus that way her life can be saved and MD’s will then not be charged criminally, but the father will. Dad is shocked and says he didn’t know she was pregnant. MD says many people don’t know at 20 weeks when her age irregularities are common. Mom comes rushing in frantic and Dad starts to explain - except then double doors open with masked MD in greens shaking his head no, whence original MD looks at couple and says “I’m sorry” just as receptionist is handing paperwork to dad..
If after the next election the Republicans control the Presidency and the Senate, watch how quickly the "Hold" is eliminated so that Trump can appoint lackeys and flunkies who will do his bidding to whatever positions he wants.
Thank you for putting into words what I've been thinking. It's true, we can't go back to the bygone days and yet I still hear friends say that somehow all this madness will stop and things will be like they were before. Or worse, "there is nothing we can do about it" or "thinking about it gives me anxiety".

It’ll work. Or something just like that vibe.
