Brownback.. [View all]

Our spiritual leader. Holy @hit!


"Gov. Sam Brownback thanked former congressional colleagues Friday for nudging the U.S. Senate hard enough to move on his nomination to be President Donald Trump’s ambassador-at-large for international religious freedom.

Brownback, who has awaited this moment since nominated in July, said he appreciated “hard work” of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Kansas Sens. Jerry Moran and Pat Roberts to trigger preliminary action on the Senate floor.

“Pleased that the U.S. Senate is moving forward with my nomination,” the Republican governor said.

Brownback’s nomination is expected to be put to a cloture vote Friday — earlier, if Democrats don’t object — to set the stage for a final decision by the Senate. With 51 Republicans and 49 Democrats, a party-line vote in the Senate would assure confirmation of Brownback."
