Fed Up with Josh Hawley

Sen. Brian Schatz (D-HI) has had enough with Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) putting holds on Defense and State Department nominees until Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin resigns.

Said Schatz: “That’s not a serious request. People used to come to me during the Trump administration all the time. ‘Do you think Trump should resign? Do you think Tillerson should resign?’ Of course I think all the people I disagree with should quit their jobs and be replaced with people I love. Of course I think they should all resign. That’s not how this world works. That is not a reasonable request from a United States senator that until the secretary of defense quits his job, I’m going to block all of his nominees. That’s preposterous.”
