YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

TYT's newest commentator Ryan Grim ( ) explains the Senate rules at the center of the confirmation process for Judge Neil Gorsuch, President Trump's pick for the U.S. Supreme Court. Gorsuch would supplant President Obama's nominee, Judge Merrick Garland, who was blocked by Senate Republicans after Associate Justice Antonin Scalia died a year ago.

Grim was reporting from outside the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, which was also impacted by complex Senate rules gamesmanship, which has allowed Senate Republicans to maneuver around Senate Democrats' efforts to boycott, and thus delay committee votes. He took questions from TYT audience members watching live on Facebook which made the report more complete and more illuminating. Thanks for that!
