This is exactly the point. Privacy waiver or not, what does it matter? Here is what we do know. Here is what we do know. That none of these four know why they were denied representation or why they haven't had a determination. We know…

I feel like we are ships passing in the night here. I could go on and on about the exploits of these deputy marshals when they were Rangers and Green Berets and what they did in combat. But my Democratic colleagues aren't getting the heart…

so contrary to what the Senator from Ohio says, I am not offended by the lack of a letter or offended by something someone said. I'm offended that four U.S. marshals--four U.S. marshals had to decide whether they are going to have enough…

reserving the right to object, which I most certainly will do, I will just address what the Senator from Illinois said. He said he has heard no explanation for why I am objecting to every Department of Justice nominee moving forward on a…
