Can you give us an update on the nomination schedule and what's been going on there? Right. We cleared the backlog. The Democrats had completely shut it down. I mean we were forced to be here. We've been here more days, more hours, cast more votes than any Senate in history, at least in the last 40 years as a result of the Democrats obstruction. And so we did make a change in the rules that enables us to start processing some of the executive branch nominations in batches and that's enabled us to catch up. (06:21–06:30)
