The Senate confirmed the president's personal attorney to run a hundred-thousand-person Justice Department at 4:34 in the morning. Fifty to forty-nine. On a Saturday. And then adjourned for five weeks.
Nobody schedules a proud moment for four in the goddamn morning. You schedule a colonoscopy for four in the morning. The hour is the confession.
Cornyn folded. Tillis folded.
