Schumer coming up to the mics at his presser: “Negotiations continue on DHS funding”

VEEP is real life part ???:
Group of apparent lobbyists in Russell: “Senator, thank you so much for supporting our initiative!”
Dem Senator: “Oh, you’re welcome!”

Markwayne Mullin’s exit line:
As Markwayne Mullin walked off the floor, @Reporter_Mia asked him if knew about a deal to fund D.H.S.
Mullin grinned, then he looked at the Hill press corps.
“You’re gonna have to ask the senators about that,” he said.

Connecting thru Chicago O’Hare where ICE agents are patrolling well inside the secure areas of the concourse, past TSA screening.
Agents I’ve seen so far are wearing clear identification and are not masked.

Sen. LANKFORD says the trip is being overblown “This is a mountain out of a molehill issue” LANKFORD says MULLIN is under a non-disclosure agreement related to the trip - rather than that it’s classified, which is how MULLIN described it. He adds it related to a whistleblower

Senator Markwayne Mullin (R-OK), Trump’s pick for DHS secretary, arrives for his confirmation hearing.

@ringwiss Good q... I have no idea.
My copy of the senate manual is sitting on my desk in the senate radio tv gallery 🤣
English
@ReedReports What rule would that be?
(That’s a genuine question; I try to stay far away from committee procedure, so there may well be something I’m not aware of.)
English
@ringwiss Don’t they need to adjourn to allow for a new legislative day so committees (I.e Sen. Mullin’s conf hearing) can meet?
English
I truly do not understand why the Senate is adjourning, rather than recessing. Even if the leadership doesn’t think forcing a talking filibuster will work, for now there is no downside to staying in the same legislative day and slightly limiting senators’ opportunities to speak.

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) says he doesn’t know who is in charge in Iran and says the media should do more digging on whether the new Supreme Leader is alive:
Calls Iran’s leadership “that movie from the 80’s… It’s like Weekend at Ayatollah’s!”
