But with Republicans controlling the Senate, he expects Clayton to be confirmed.
I’m gonna go more into detail about this later this week, but in my research for one of my essays this week I came across this article from ABC.
It explains how Democrats in the Senate are playing hardball. They are blocking by partisan bills in ways they never have before. I don’t think most people are aware of that. I mean, I wasn’t aware of it until about five minutes ago.
The decision by Senate Democrats to let a key surveillance authority lapse comes as they're increasingly emboldened in their legislative fig
MARK WARNER, top dem on senate intel, with a statement:
WASHINGTON – U.S. Sen. Mark R. Warner (D-VA), Vice Chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, issued the following statement:
“Our Constitution places the gravest decisions about the use of military force in the hands of Congress for a reason. Using military force to enact regime change demands the closest scrutiny, precisely because the consequences do not end with the initial strike.
“If the United States asserts the right to use military force to invade and capture foreign leaders it accuses of criminal conduct, what prevents China from claiming the same authority over Taiwan’s leadership? What stops Vladimir Putin from asserting similar justification to abduct Ukraine’s president? Once this line is crossed, the rules that restrain global chaos begin to collapse, and authoritarian regimes will be the first to exploit it.
“None of this absolves Maduro. He is a corrupt authoritarian who has repressed his people, stolen elections, imprisoned political opponents, and presided over a humanitarian catastrophe that has forced millions of Venezuelans to flee. The Venezuelan people deserve democratic leadership, and the United States and the international community should have done far more, years ago, to press for a peaceful transition after Maduro lost a vote of his own citizens. But recognizing Maduro’s crimes does not give any president the authority to ignore the Constitution.
“The hypocrisy underlying this decision is especially glaring. This same president recently pardoned former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández, who was convicted in a U.S. court on serious drug trafficking charges, including conspiring with narcotics traffickers while in office. Yet now, the administration claims that similar allegations justify the use of military force against another sovereign nation. You cannot credibly argue that drug trafficking charges demand invasion in one case, while issuing a pardon in another.
“America’s strength comes from our commitment to the rule of law, democratic norms, and constitutional restraint. When we abandon those principles, even in the name of confronting bad actors, we weaken our credibility, endanger global stability, and invite abuses of power that will long outlast any single presidency.”

My Condolences to Virginia Democratic Senator Mark Warner and his Family After His Daughter Died from Type 1 Diabetes. My Heart Goes Out for Her, Because I Know What Having Both Types 1 and 2 Diabetes Does to My Life. We Must Create Many More Tax Credits for Banks that Fund Charities for Diabetics that are Poor and Middle Class that Can Provide Free Monthly Insulin Pump Supplies, Insulin, CGMs, Test Strips, Meters, Lancets, IV Prep Swipes, and Alcohol Cotton Swabs for Poor and Middle Class Diabetics. My Question is: Did Senator Warner's Daughter Have Access to an Insulin Pump and Insulin Pump Supplies? Relying on Insulin Pumps and Monthly Insulin Pump Supplies Can Lengthen the Lifespans of Millions of Diabetics. I Do Not Believe that Diabetes - Both Autoimmune Type 1 and Obesity-Related Type 2 - are an Accident. There are Prescription Drugs that Fat Businesswomen, Businessmen, Fat Teachers, and Their Student Gang Members Mix into Children's Juices that Cause Autoimmune Diseases such as Type 1 Diabetes. For Example, Some Statins Meant to Lower Cholesterol Can Cause Type 1 Diabetic Autoimmune Reactions to Literally "Kill the Competition," Especially Children at Young Ages. President Trump and Republicans are a Failure at Cutting Taxes to Create Millions of More Charities for the Disabled. I Believe Capitalism CAN Create Free Universal Healthcares for US All, but Republicans are Bad at It. You Would Have to Go Insane and Be Locked Away into Psychiatric Wards with Cops with Guns Banging On Your Front Doors After You've Pricked Your Fingers with Needles Six Times Each Day for Over 10 and Over 20 Years to Be Considered Eligible for Medicaid. Republicans are Killing the Kids by Giving The Kids Diabetes by Tricking the Kids into Shooting Themselves with Guns or Attempting Suicides Some Other Way Because of the Self-Inflicted Wounds from Insulin Injections and Finger-Needle Prickings. We Need Conservative Democrats like Presidents Lyndon Johnson and Republican Conservative President Richard Nixon as President Nixon Declared War on Illicit Street Drugs that Can Harm the Disabled, Especially Diabetics. Psychiatry is the Root Cause of Obesity, as Many Psychiatric Medications Turn People Obese by Increasing Appetites for Food or by Increasing Water Weight, or Both. We Must Be Allowed to Sue Pharmaceutical Drug Companies that Invent Shit Psychiatric Medications that Make Our Healths Worse, that Make Us Fatter and Overweight with Water while Starving.

Ron Wyden has previously warned about spy abuses before they were public. Now he and Mark Warner say something else is up.
Arthur Delaney at HuffPost:
WASHINGTON ― Two senior members of the Senate Intelligence Committee are warning they know about potential misconduct by the Central Intelligence Agency, but they can’t say what it is. In a public letter to CIA director John Ratcliffe, Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) revealed on Wednesday he’d sent another letter, apparently classified, expressing alarm about something the agency is doing. “I write to alert you to a classified letter I sent you earlier today, in which I express deep concerns about CIA activities,” Wyden said in the letter, which his office released Wednesday afternoon. “Thank you for your attention to this important matter.” That’s all the letter says. Wyden previously delivered cryptic warnings about the CIA’s sister agency, the National Security Agency. “I want to deliver a warning this afternoon,” he said in a Senate floor speech in 2011. “When the American people find out how their government has secretly interpreted the Patriot Act, they will be stunned and they will be angry.”
[...] Joining Wyden’s is the committee’s top Democrat, Sen. Mark Warner (Va.). A spokesperson for Warner said the senator “shares many of the concerns expressed by Senator Wyden in his letter, and in fact he has expressed them to DCIA Ratcliffe himself.”
Democratic Senators Ron Wyden (OR) and Mark Warner (VA) give a cryptic yet frightening warning in a letter sent to CIA Director John Ratcliffe.
