Democratic leaders are asking Vice President Mike Pence to stay away from today’s Senate session due to his potential exposure to Covid-19 from aides who tested positive over the weekend

Democratic leaders are asking Vice President Mike Pence to stay away from Monday’s Senate session due to his potential exposure to Covid-19 from aides who tested positive over the weekend, just as the Senate’s Republican majority is set to confirm Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court.

Pence is supposed to preside over Monday’s vote and is typically expected to cast a vote to break any ties, something that is unlikely. Noting potential health risks, Schumer has urged his colleagues to not linger in the Senate chamber and asked them to cast their votes “quickly and from a safe distance.”Schumer on Sunday was severely critical of the Senate Republicans’ push to install Barrett in the Supreme Court “the Republican Party is willing to ignore the pandemic in order to rush this nominee forward.

Hey dishonest media journalists, tell people about the multiple negative coronavirus tests Pence got? Follow the science, if you test negative that means there is not enough coronavirus to cause concern. Funny how these people pick and choose which science they want.

Why hide the fact that he tested negative

Puerco pence doesn’t give a piggy crap who he infects

Absolutely! Follow the CDC task force recommendations. He should be familiar with them.

Dems doing everything to tear US apart🤣

Sure don’t want him casting a potential tie vote in case the senate spits 50/50 on supreme court nominee.

So the 😷 don’t work good enough for Senators?

🤣🤣🤣No they want him to stay away because of that tie-breaker vote that comes with him.

This is a fair ask but Pence isn’t a reasonable person.
